"

Insulating the exterior walls of our two story, 1700 sq ft house, involved drilling holes between each stud, blowing in insulating material, plugging the holes, spackling over the holes, priming and finally painting the holes.  Two man crew was very efficient in setting up scaffolding and then doing the work described.  We got a chance to see what the insulation looks like inside the wall when the force of the insulation popped out a built-in bookcase that was not secured.  Its a solid blanket of insulation, filling in the entire space.   Very impressive.  The results have been very noticeable.  The house feels more comfortable, and the heater turns on less frequently.  We should have done this years ago. 

Last part of the project was to blow additional insulation into the attic, which went very quickly.  Overall, the project took 2 very long afternoons/evenings to complete.  It makes a mess around the outside of the house, but they did a good job of cleaning up each day.

"Had a great experience hiring Bay Valley Insulation. The quote arrived very efficiently and was the price I was looking for. The crew of Tony and Henry arrived inside the scheduled window and work was completed in a timely manner that day. The job looked great in the blown attic and final clean-up was great. Thank you."

"This is an awesome company to do business with. They are honest, reliable, and do an outstanding job. My insulation was very old and my upstairs had become unlivable because it was so hot. I sought out 3 bids and I decided to use this company because of the outstanding experience I had in working with them. The person who took my call was very helpful, courteous and warm. They came out right away to inspect and give an estimate. They did not try to upsell and I felt very comfortable in what they said I needed. The installers arrived on time, got the job done, were super conscientious and efficient. I cannot say enough about what a great company this is. My house feels so much better. Do not hesitate to contact them if you need insulation and you will not be sorry."

"I love this company! Garrett came to my home and assessed how efficient our current insulation, etc was. He was very informative and friendly — explained what we needed and how they could help. At the time, I decided to hold off and he never pushed the sale. When I was ready, he was quick to accommodate my schedule. His team: Angel, Luis, Tommy and TJ were great! They arrived early, were professional, courteous, kind, very helpful with my questions and were above and beyond to help fix things that I wasn’t even aware of. They also were more than happy to help with small problems that I had no idea how to fix. They worked quickly and cleaned up afterwards. You could tell they cared about their work which makes me feel confident that the job was done right. They were also fun to have around — my Great Dane loved them too! Garrett and Dave checked in with me during and afterwards to make sure things were going well and if I had any questions. I highly recommend Eagle Shield."

"Attic Elite is BY FAR the most professional insulation contractor. When you are looking at a major purchase (over 10k) it's good to know the contractor isn't "flying by the seat of their pants", especially when asbestos is involved."

"I received several estimates from people but I chose Ideal Attic was my choice for cost and time of day when they could begin working on it which was the very next day. They explained to me what they were going to do and told me when they should be finished. I recommend them to anyone needing heating and insulation work."

"American Attic was everything they promised. Met with the owner , Sam, within a day to get a quote for removal of old insulation, rodent control and install of new insulation. He was professional and explained everything in detail of what was work was going to be done and how long it would take. We scheduled within a week at a reasonable price. His crew were neat, organized and finished on time! We were notified of some extra things that were found while they were on the job but were not pressured to have those things done. We recommend American Attic to friends or family and would definitely use them again."

Insulation questions, answered by experts

In San Jose, homeowners often overlook the importance of air sealing before adding insulation, especially in homes with older stucco or tile roofs. Failing to address gaps around recessed lighting or attic hatches can lead to heat loss. Many also underestimate the impact of microclimates and don’t upgrade crawl space vapor barriers, which can affect both thermal performance and indoor air quality.

Helpful?

Insulation in San Jose should be checked annually for signs of rodent activity, moisture intrusion after winter rains, and settling in attic spaces—especially in homes near the foothills. Inspect around HVAC ducts and recessed lighting for air leaks, and ensure vapor barriers in crawl spaces remain intact. Upgrading insulation as new materials become available can further enhance utility savings and indoor comfort.

Helpful?

In San Jose, attic insulation typically takes one to two days, while wall insulation in older homes—often with lath and plaster—can take three to five days due to careful prep and electrical considerations. Full-home projects, including air sealing and ductwork adjustments, may require up to two weeks. Permit timelines and contractor schedules, especially during the spring and summer, can also influence project duration.

Helpful?

Upgrading insulation in San Jose can make your home more attractive to buyers who value energy efficiency and home comfort. Enhanced insulation helps maintain consistent indoor temperatures, reduces noise from busy streets, and can contribute to lower utility bills. These improvements are especially appealing in San Jose’s tech-driven market, where eco-friendly features and improved thermal performance often boost resale appeal.

Helpful?

Be cautious of quotes that don’t include a thorough home assessment or skip discussing San Jose’s unique climate needs. If a contractor avoids mentioning required permits, doesn’t address air sealing, or overlooks how insulation affects home comfort and ventilation, consider it a warning sign. Trustworthy professionals will explain how their work improves both energy efficiency and your home’s overall thermal performance.
