BLOWN-IN ATTIC INSULATION

Insulation.
Planned for your attic.

Blown-in fibreglass insulation and attic top-ups with the preparation, coverage and finished level clearly set out.

Start with the attic you have.

The existing material, its distribution and the available access help determine a sensible upgrade. We review coverage and visible conditions before deciding where a top-up fits and which supporting improvements belong in the quote.

Specify the finished R-value.

R-50 and R-60 describe thermal resistance, not a single universal number of inches. Different products require different installed depths and quantities. Your scope should identify the material, the target and the area included.

Prepare before covering.

Accessible ceiling air leaks, the hatch, bathroom exhaust connections and the air path at the eaves deserve attention before additional insulation covers them. Wet insulation, roof leaks or unusual materials may require separate assessment before the upgrade proceeds.

Connect the details. Insulation, ceiling air sealing, attic ventilation and household exhaust are considered together when planning the scope.

WHAT THE SCOPE CAN INCLUDE

The work.
Clearly set out.

Blown-in fibreglass insulation being installed across an attic

Existing coverage

Review the starting material and uneven or missed areas.

Supporting work

Identify air sealing, baffles, hatch improvements and duct corrections.

Finished coverage

Install to the agreed product-specific depth and coverage, keeping required clearances and airflow paths open.

YOUR QUESTIONS

A little more
detail.

Can you top up existing batt insulation?

A top-up can be suitable when the existing material and attic conditions allow it. The assessment determines the preparation and additional coverage required.

Will more insulation solve attic frost?

Insulation is only one part of the system. Warm, moist air entering through ceiling leaks or faulty exhaust ducting needs to be addressed as part of the plan.
