Are you waking up itchy but can’t find any bugs? Most attic damage is gradual — until pests make it worse. Understanding the cause helps you fix it for good. What’s Behind the Problem?- House Wear & Tear:
Insulation compresses and loses efficiency as homes age, especially in older properties. - Weather & Moisture:
Leaks or condensation cause mold growth and reduce insulation performance. - Pest Activity:
Raccoons, squirrels, and mice chew through insulation, creating tunnels and contaminating the space. - Energy Leaks:
Damaged insulation lets warm or cool air escape, driving up energy bills.
Why Insulation Matters
Proper attic insulation does more than regulate temperature — it transforms your home’s comfort and energy efficiency all year long.
