Attic Insulation
in Wimberley, TX
Attic insulation in Wimberley, 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 Wimberley Homes
Need a Attic Insulation
Older buildings were not designed around an attic full of blown-in, and what is up there now was added by somebody at some point with no record of when or how deep. Finding out is a measurement, not a guess.
Access is the other constraint. We check how the material gets in and out before quoting, because on a historic house the route through the building matters as much as the work itself.
In Wimberley that shows up across cabins and houses along the Blanco River and Cypress Creek and hillside properties on the ridges alike.
Our Wimberley
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.
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.
Find where the heat is leaking
Ceiling penetrations, can lights, the attic hatch and the top plates. Insulation over an unsealed hole does very little, and we show you which holes yours has.
Decide removal honestly
Old insulation comes out when it is contaminated, wet or hiding damage. Where it is simply thin, topping it up is cheaper and we say so.
What a Attic Insulation
Costs in Wimberley
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
Wimberley Homes
Six things the crew photographs most often on Wimberley inspections. If one of them sounds like your house, the inspection is free and the fix is priced in writing.
Cedar Pollen Held in the Return
Between December and February the pollen that got past the filter sits in the return and comes back into the room at every start-up. Cleaning does not stop what is outside, it stops the house recirculating it.
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.
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.
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.
Dust That Comes Back a Week After Cleaning
Grey fuzz on the registers and the furniture again. The supply lines and the return plenum are holding what the filter never caught.
Wasps and Birds in Hoods and Caps
A dryer hood with a stuck flap and an uncapped flue are the two most inviting openings on the house. We clear them and fit screens rather than clean the same nest twice.

in Wimberley
Things Wimberley 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.
Cedar season
Between December and February the return and the plenum hold what the filter did not catch. We photograph them so you can see whether cleaning is worth it in your house.
Guest cottages and short lets
A dated record for the dryer vent and the fireplace is what platforms and insurers ask for, and turnover here is high enough to keep it current.
Cabins near the water
Houses close to the creek and the river hold humidity. Damp in the return is a different problem from dust and gets a different answer.
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 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.
How long does the work take?
A measured inspection is under an hour. Removal and new blown-in on a typical attic is most of a day, and we tell you which it is before booking rather than after.
Do you serve all of Wimberley?
Yes, the whole town and the country around it. Wimberley is sixty-one miles from the office by US 281, US 290 and RM 12, about an hour and twenty minutes. It is a planned trip, so we look at the whole property on one visit.
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 Wimberley and one written quote.
