If your Oakland home has uneven temperatures, high energy bills, drafts, or aging insulation, the condition of your insulation may be part of the problem. Attic Renew 360 provides professional insulation services designed to improve the comfort and energy efficiency of homes throughout Oakland, CA.
Our insulation services cover attics, exterior walls, and crawl spaces. We also provide air sealing, rodent proofing, insulation removal, and radiant barrier solutions when they are appropriate for the condition of your home.
Rather than recommending the same insulation solution for every property, we evaluate the existing conditions and help determine the right approach for your home.
Attic Insulation in Oakland, CA
Your attic plays an important role in maintaining a comfortable indoor environment. When attic insulation is insufficient, damaged, or has settled over time, your heating and cooling system may have to work harder to maintain the desired temperature.
Attic Renew 360 installs both loose-fill and batt insulation for attic applications. The right option depends on factors such as the attic layout, existing insulation, wiring and pipes, accessibility, and the overall condition of the space.
If your existing insulation is old, damaged, contaminated, or no longer providing adequate coverage, we can also assess whether insulation removal and replacement is needed.
Wall Insulation in Oakland, CA
Insulation inside exterior walls can help reduce heat transfer and improve temperature consistency throughout your home. If certain rooms feel noticeably warmer or colder than others, insufficient wall insulation or air leakage may be contributing to the problem.
For wall insulation projects, we work with blow-in and batt insulation depending on the construction and accessibility of the wall cavities.
Blow-in insulation can be useful when insulation needs to be added to existing walls with minimal disruption, while batt insulation is generally easier to install when wall cavities are already open.
Crawl Space Insulation in Oakland, CA
Crawl spaces can have a significant impact on the comfort of the rooms above them. When floors above an unconditioned crawl space are poorly insulated, conditioned air can be lost through the floor, making parts of the home feel uncomfortable.
Our crawl space insulation services help address inadequate insulation and improve the overall thermal performance of the home.
During an inspection, we can also identify conditions that may affect the insulation, such as moisture, damaged materials, air leakage, or signs of rodent activity.
Air Sealing in Oakland, CA
Insulation works best when unwanted air leakage is addressed as part of the overall project. Gaps and openings around attics, walls, crawl spaces, pipes, wiring, and other areas can allow outside air to enter and conditioned air to escape.
Attic Renew 360 provides air sealing to help reduce these unwanted air pathways.
Depending on the location and condition of the gaps, caulking and weatherstripping may be used to seal areas where air can move through the building envelope.
Proper air sealing can also help reduce drafts and make indoor temperatures more consistent.
Rodent Proofing in Oakland, CA
Rodents can enter attics and crawl spaces through surprisingly small openings. Once inside, they can damage insulation, wiring, ductwork, and other components of the home.
If you are hearing noises in the attic, noticing signs of rodents, or finding damaged insulation, rodent proofing may be an important part of restoring the space.
Our team can identify potential entry points and provide rodent proofing to help prevent rodents from gaining access to areas of your home.
Insulation Removal in Oakland, CA
Old insulation may eventually become damaged, compressed, contaminated, or affected by rodent activity. Simply adding new insulation over a problem area is not always the best solution.
Attic Renew 360 can inspect your existing insulation and determine whether it should remain in place or be removed and replaced.
Insulation removal may be appropriate when existing materials are heavily damaged, contaminated, or no longer suitable for the space. We can help you understand the condition of your attic insulation before deciding on the next step.
Radiant Barrier in Oakland, CA
A radiant barrier is an attic application designed to reduce radiant heat transfer by reflecting thermal energy. It can be considered as part of an overall attic energy-efficiency strategy, depending on the home’s construction and conditions.
Because every attic is different, we recommend evaluating the existing insulation, ventilation, and other conditions before determining whether a radiant barrier is appropriate for your home.
How Does Our Insulation Process Work?
- Schedule an Inspection
We begin by understanding your concerns and arranging an inspection of the areas involved.

Our team evaluates the existing insulation and looks for issues such as inadequate coverage, damaged insulation, air leakage, moisture concerns, or signs of rodent activity.
- Determine the Appropriate Solution
Based on the condition of your home, we determine which insulation or related service is appropriate for the project.
- Prepare the Area
If existing insulation needs to be removed or the area requires preparation, we take care of the necessary work before installing new materials.

Our team performs the agreed-upon insulation, air sealing, rodent proofing, removal, or radiant barrier work according to the needs of the property.
- Review the Completed Work
After the project is completed, we review the work and make sure the service has been completed according to the agreed scope.
