New Insulation for Energy Efficiency and Pest Resistance
Blown-In Cellulose · Fiberglass Batt · Attic & Crawl Space
After insulation removal or when installing fresh insulation in an uninsulated or under-insulated space, proper installation restores thermal performance and can incorporate pest-resistant products. 101 Exterminators installs blown-in cellulose and fiberglass, as well as batt insulation for crawl space floor installations. We coordinate insulation work with any necessary pest exclusion or vapor barrier installation to ensure the completed result is both thermally effective and pest-resistant.
How We Work
Our Process
Every service follows a structured protocol designed to deliver effective, lasting results — not a temporary fix.
Existing Conditions Assessment
We measure current insulation depth, note any areas requiring air sealing before installation, and confirm that the attic is rodent-free before new insulation goes in.
Air Sealing (As Needed)
Gaps around recessed lights, plumbing penetrations, HVAC ductwork, and top plates are sealed before insulation is blown in to maximize thermal performance.
Insulation Installation
Machine-blown cellulose or fiberglass is distributed to uniform depth and density across the attic floor or specified area. Depth gauges are placed and photographed for documentation.
R-Value Confirmation
Installed depth is documented and final R-value confirmed. For permit applications, we provide the necessary documentation of materials and installation specs.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What R-value do I need for my California attic?
California Title 24 requires R-38 minimum for new construction in most climate zones. For existing homes in Monterey and Santa Cruz counties (Climate Zone 3), upgrading to R-38 or R-49 is recommended. For inland areas like Hollister and South Santa Clara County (Climate Zone 5), R-49 or higher maximizes energy savings due to larger temperature swings.
