Attic Insulation
in Blanco, TX
Attic insulation in Blanco, TX. We measure the depth you actually have, photograph the bare spots and the gaps, and price removal and new blown-in separately, per square foot, in writing.
Why Blanco Homes
Need a Attic Insulation
Ranch houses have big attics and long duct runs through them, so attic temperature drives the whole system. An attic at 140 degrees with thin insulation means the ducts are losing cooling before it ever reaches a register.
Dust is the second factor. Open land and unpaved drives put fine grit into an attic through every gap, and insulation that has been breathing that for years is worth photographing before anyone decides whether it stays.
In Blanco that shows up across homes near the Blanco River and the town park and streets around the old courthouse square alike.
Our Blanco
Attic Insulation Process
Every visit starts with the free inspection. You see the photographs before you see a price, and the price is written down before anything is touched.
Seal, then blow
Penetrations sealed first, then blown-in to a full measured depth, with baffles kept clear at the eaves so the roof still breathes.
Photograph the finished floor
A picture of the finished depth with the measure in it, and the ductwork left visible rather than buried.
Check the baffles at the eaves
Insulation blown into the soffit vents stops the roof breathing and traps moisture. We make sure the air path at the eaves stays open.
Look at the attic hatch
An uninsulated hatch is a hole the size of a window in your ceiling. It is cheap to fix and almost always skipped.
Note the bath and kitchen fans
A fan venting into the attic instead of outside puts moisture straight into the insulation. We photograph where each one actually terminates.
Measure what is there
Depth readings across the attic, not one reading by the hatch. Settled blown-in, bare joists and wet patches all get photographed with the tape in the shot.
What a Attic Insulation
Costs in Blanco
Measured and quoted per square foot
Removal and new blown-in are separate lines and both are per square foot of attic, measured on the free inspection. We write down the depth we found and the depth we are proposing, so the number is arithmetic rather than a guess.
The inspection is free and there is no call-out fee. If the honest answer is that nothing needs doing, you get that in writing and pay nothing.

What We Find in
Blanco Homes
Six things the crew photographs most often on Blanco inspections. If one of them sounds like your house, the inspection is free and the fix is priced in writing.
Fine Outdoor Dust From Unpaved Drives
On acreage the filter fills far faster than any schedule allows for. We show you what came out of the return instead of quoting an interval from a brochure.
A Return Pulling Air From the Attic
An unsealed return plenum draws hot attic air and everything in it straight past the filter. Sealing it is usually cheaper than cleaning the system twice a year.
Lint Packed in the Dryer Vent
Clothes take two cycles, the top of the dryer runs hot and the outside flap barely opens. That run gets cleared from the dryer to the cap.
Creosote and Cracked Flue Tiles
A fireplace that smokes back or has not been swept in years. We sweep, inspect and photograph the flue before the first cold front.
A Blocked or Missing Flue Cap
Without a cap the flue takes rain, leaves and nests. It is the cheapest part of the system and the one most often absent when we get on the roof.
Thin or Uneven Attic Insulation
Bare spots, settled blown-in and unsealed can lights are the reason upstairs rooms never cool. We measure the depth on every attic visit.

in Blanco
Things Blanco homeowners ask about that have nothing to do with the work itself, and everything to do with selling, insuring or getting an association form approved.
Houses near the river
Humidity next to the water keeps coils and return plenums damp through the shoulder seasons. We photograph the coil rather than guess at the smell.
Older houses on the square
Ductwork retrofitted into a building that predates central air is usually undersized somewhere. We measure and show you where.
Acreage, septic and wells
On a property with its own water and septic, nobody is coming to look at anything on a schedule. The dryer vent and the flue are worth putting on one.
Selling the house
The inspection report a buyer orders has separate lines for the fireplace, the flue and the dryer exhaust, and the duct system gets looked at along with the equipment. A written report with photos before you list keeps all of that out of the negotiation.

Questions
How much does attic insulation cost in Blanco?
Removal and new blown-in are priced per square foot of attic and quoted separately, because they are separate jobs. The square footage and the depth are measured on the free inspection and written down, so you can check the arithmetic yourself.
How deep should attic insulation be here?
Central Texas attics want a full blown-in depth across the whole floor, and most of the houses we open are well under it because the material has settled over the years. We measure yours and write the number down whether or not you buy anything.
Do I need to remove the old insulation?
Only if it is contaminated, wet or hiding damage. If it is simply thin, topping it up costs less and works nearly as well. We photograph what is up there and tell you which case yours is.
Will new insulation lower my summer bill?
It is the single biggest lever on a Central Texas summer bill, but only once the holes in the ceiling are sealed. Blowing over unsealed can lights buys much less than the brochure suggests, so we seal first.
Do you work around the ductwork?
Yes, and we leave it visible rather than burying it. Buried flex is how a crushed or disconnected run goes unnoticed for years.
Do you serve all of Blanco?
Yes, the whole town and the country around it. Blanco is thirty-six miles from the office, about forty-five minutes down US 281 through Johnson City. We group Blanco with Johnson City on the same run south.
Can you do this on the same visit as the ducts?
Yes, and most people do. The same crew handles ducts, dryer vents, chimneys and attic insulation, so it is one trip to Blanco and one written quote.
