Attic Insulation

What we do

Precise Roofing holds a C-2 insulation license in addition to our roofing license, which means we can treat your attic and your roof as one system. Proper insulation and ventilation keep summer heat out of the living space, stop winter condensation that rots roof decks, and cut energy bills. It is the upgrade most reroofs should include and most roofers cannot offer.

What the drone sees

Where attic insulation succeeds or fails

Tap a point on one of our own drone photos to see what we check during the free inspection, and why it matters for this job.

Step and counter flashing where the stone meets the shingles. The number one leak source we find on Bay Area roofs.

Signs your attic is working against your roof

The problem

What usually goes wrong

Upstairs rooms that are unbearable in July, ice cold floors in January, frost or moisture on the underside of the roof deck, high energy bills, and shingles that aged out ten years early. Every one of these points to an attic with too little insulation, too little airflow, or both.

The Precise fix

How we solve it

We inspect the attic for insulation depth, moisture and airflow, then recommend the right insulation level for the Bay Area climate zone your home sits in. Installation is usually completed in a day and pairs naturally with a reroof while the attic is accessible.

Pricing, explained

What actually sets the price of attic insulation

No two roofs cost the same, and anyone who quotes over the phone is guessing. These are the six things we measure before we write a number.

01
Attic square footage

Insulation is priced by area and the depth needed to reach the target R value.

02
Existing insulation

Removing old, wet or rodent damaged material comes first and changes the scope.

03
Target R value

Bay Area code targets and your comfort goals set the depth we blow in.

04
Air sealing

Sealing can lights, top plates and chases before insulating is where the energy savings actually come from.

05
Ventilation balance

Baffles at the eaves keep intake vents open so the roof stays dry and the shingles stay cool.

06
Access

Hatch size, roof pitch and what is stored up there set the labor.

FAQ

Attic Insulation questions, answered

Straight answers. If yours is not here, call and ask a roofer directly.

Still have a question?

Ask a roofer, not a call center. We answer 24 hours a day.

(888) 288-1885Free inspection

01Why would a roofer install insulation?

Because the roof and the attic fail together. A hot, unventilated attic cooks shingles from below. We hold the C-2 license so we can fix both sides of the problem correctly.

02How much insulation does a Bay Area attic need?

California Title 24 calls for R-38 or more in most Bay Area climate zones. Many older homes have a fraction of that.

03Should I insulate when I replace my roof?

It is the ideal time. The attic is accessible, ventilation is being addressed anyway, and the combined project costs less than doing them separately.

04Does insulation help in summer too?

Yes. It slows heat coming down from the roof deck into the rooms below, which is the main comfort problem in inland East Bay and South Bay homes.
