Attic Insulation in Austin, TX

There are many tell-tale signs that your attic is not properly insulated or ventilated. Some signs are obvious, while others are not. If you are noticing any of these indicators below, it may be time to check the attic.

• Do you see leak marks on your ceiling?
• Do you feel cold drafts seeping through the attic door?
• Is ice dam formation a common occurrence on your roof during winter?

If you’re experiencing poor attic insulation, contact a professional to take care of the problem before it does irreparable damage to your home. Not only will poor attic insulation lead to an ever-increasing energy bill, but it is endangering your home by allowing moisture to enter.

When extreme temperatures are your enemy, insulation is your best friend. If the heat from your rooms below rises to your attic during winter, the snow will melt and freeze repeatedly, leaking into your roof and your attic. Similarly, when the cold percolates through the attic floor, the temperature in your house will begin to drop, adding strain to your heating system. So, yes, even if you have a good attic, a lack of insulation and ventilation can cause serious damage.
