Our Services
Converse Attic Insulation Contractor Services
Older attics need different fixes than brand-new ones. Here's what our team handles for insulation installation in Converse, TX, whether your attic needs a few more inches or a complete clean-out.
Attic Insulation Top-Up
Often the simplest fix for an older attic. Once the existing layer is checked and dry, we add over it to bring the whole floor back to R-38 to R-49.
Insulation Removal
When old insulation is damp, moldy, full of droppings or packed flat, we take it out and start fresh.
Attic Air Sealing
Decades of AC swaps, wiring jobs and plumbing repairs leave holes in the attic floor. We seal them before new insulation goes down.
Blown-In Cellulose Insulation
Dense, treated recycled paper that fills in around old wiring and framing, leaving fewer gaps behind.
Blown-In Fiberglass Insulation
Lightweight loose-fill that blows evenly over the insulation you already have.
Spray Foam at the Roof Deck
Insulation sprayed on the underside of the roof deck instead of the floor. It costs more and is mainly worth it when your ducts and air handler run through the attic.
Other rooms feel the heat too? In Converse, we can also insulate your walls, finished or open, and insulate your garage. Homes with a crawl space can add crawl space insulation to help the floors above feel more comfortable.

Same Attic Insulation Since the 80s or 90s? Here's What Time Does to It
If your Converse home went up in the 1980s or 90s, the insulation over your ceilings has been working for 30 years or more. Here's what can happen to it in that time:
- It settles and flattens: Loose insulation loses height over the years, and every inch it loses lowers its R-value.
- Storage crushes it: Boxes, holiday decorations and plywood walkways press it flat in the spots you use most.
- Repairs leave gaps: A new AC unit, rewired lights or a plumbing fix can push insulation aside, and it doesn't always get put back.
- Old light fixtures leak: Older recessed lights are often not airtight, so attic air can drift into the rooms below.
The good news is that many older attics don't need a tear-out. If the existing insulation is dry and clean, we seal the gaps and build it back up.
Why It Matters
What Makes Attic Insulation in Converse, TX Worth Checking
- 01A large 1980s and 90s housing stock: About 28% of Converse homes were built between 1980 and 1999. That insulation has been in place for decades.
- 02Bexar County heat: Converse is in Climate Zone 2A, the hot-humid zone. A thin attic layer lets summer heat straight through to your ceilings.
- 03Current codes, current targets: The City of Converse reviews building plans under the 2024 I-Codes. For existing attics, our target is R-38 to R-49, measured over the full floor.

Customer Reviews
What Our Customers Say
“These guys did a great job on our attic. The crew was friendly, professional, and easy to work with and price was reasonable too. Really happy with the results and would definitely recommend them”
Alex James

“Had my attic insulation done by Frank and his crew, and and tbh I’m really happy with the results and how it turns out. A day after I reached out to them Frank came out to check the attic and gave me an estimate, and just two days later, the crew was back to get the job done. The attic was really in rough shape before, but it looks so much better now. Everyone worked hard and got everything done in a timely manner. Thanks Frank, and thanks to the whole crew for the great work”
Derrick J.

“Frank and his team were great to work with from start to finish. They came out to check our attic, took some pictures, and gave us an estimate pretty quickly. The following week, they returned and installed the blown-in insulation. They did a great job and cleaned up everything afterward, even the small bits left in the street. The price was reasonable, and the whole experience was smooth... Definitely recommend them!”

FAQ
Converse Attic Insulation Questions
Possibly not. Loose insulation settles and gets disturbed over the years, so a 30-year-old layer may sit well below R-38. Measuring it is the only way to know.
Our goal is R-38 to R-49 over every part of the attic floor. During the inspection, we measure your current level and show you how far it is from that range.
Yes, if the old layer is dry, clean and free of pest damage. We seal the gaps first and then add the new insulation over it.
Water stains, mold, a musty smell, droppings or nesting, and insulation that's packed flat are the main signs. We look for each one during the inspection.
It can. Anything resting on insulation presses it down and lowers its R-value. We'll point out flattened areas and include them in the top-up.
It's still worth measuring. Newer homes went up under more recent codes, but thin edges and gaps around the hatch can turn up in any attic.
Yes. Wet, moldy, pest-damaged or crushed insulation comes out before any new insulation goes in.
We price it after measuring. Attic size, how much insulation you have now, and whether sealing or removal is needed all factor in, and the estimate visit is free.
