EnergyFit Visalia Insulation Solutions insulates attics, walls and crawl spaces in Lemoore, CA. We seal the gaps first, clear out old or damaged material when it has to go, then top up the insulation so rooms hold their temperature.
Lemoore calls usually start the same way, with a hot upstairs, a room over the garage that never settles down, or floors that run cold. Closer to downtown we see older houses on raised floors with a crawl space underneath, and farther out we see newer houses where the attic is most of the story. We do the same work next door in Hanford and over in Lindsay, but each house gets looked at on its own, because what's in the attic or under the floor is different every time.
The Sarah A. Mooney Memorial Museum downtown reports that its own building, built with Sierra redwood, has held up well above, while the sill plates, the boards at the base of the walls, have broken down from ground moisture and dry rot. That's the spot I check first under a raised floor in Lemoore, because insulating over damp or soft wood hides the problem instead of fixing it.
Spray foam insulation for the room over the garage or an attic where the ducts run, since foam seals air while it insulates and earns its higher cost there.
Explore serviceAttic insulation for the hot upstairs rooms we hear about most, laid evenly out to the edges instead of piled deep in the middle.
Explore serviceBlown-in insulation, loose fill blown through a hose, to top up an attic that's down to a few inches, with the eave vents kept clear so the attic still breathes.
Explore serviceHome insulation when the whole house runs drafty and you want one plan that puts the attic, walls and crawl space in the right order.
Explore serviceInsulation removal when old material is soaked or full of droppings, because new insulation laid on top keeps the problem in place.
Explore serviceCrawl space insulation under raised floors that run cold, after I've checked the sills and the ground for moisture.
Explore serviceWall insulation for older walls that were closed up with little or nothing inside them.
Explore serviceAir sealing services, closing the gaps before any insulation goes in, so the new material isn't fighting a draft.
Explore serviceBasement insulation for the few houses with a basement or a below-grade room that stays cold.
Explore serviceClosed-cell foam insulation, the dense foam that blocks moisture, for spots close to the ground where loose fill wouldn't hold up.
Explore serviceOpen-cell foam insulation for rooflines and walls that need air sealed and filled where moisture isn't the worry.
Explore serviceCommercial insulation for shops and offices, planned around the other work going on in the building.
Explore serviceCrawl space vapor barrier laid over bare ground under raised floors, so moisture stops working its way up toward the framing.
Explore serviceVapor barrier installation in walls and ceilings, placed on the right side of the insulation so it keeps moisture out instead of trapping it.
Explore serviceAttic air sealing around can lights, pipes and the attic hatch, the gaps that most often get skipped.
Explore serviceRetrofit insulation for lived-in houses, worked around the wiring, ducts and stored boxes already in the attic.
Explore serviceBefore a Lemoore job starts, I check with the city or county office that covers your address on whether the work needs a permit, and when it does, we apply for it as your licensed contractor and meet the inspector on site. That check comes first on the schedule, and if you'd like to ask the city yourself, start at the City of Lemoore website. Ask any contractor for two things before they climb into your attic, a California contractor license and a Lemoore city business license, and you'll find what each one covers in the questions below. We're licensed and insured.
We come over from Visalia, so a Lemoore job gets the same crew and the same order of work as one close to home. What moves the price is what I find on the first visit: how many inches are already up there, whether old material has to come out first, how many gaps need sealing, how easy the attic or crawl space is to get into, and whether foam or loose fill fits. The schedule turns on the permit check and on any cleanout, because removal has to finish before anything new goes in, and your written estimate with photos gives you the figure for your own house.
Send the form or call (559) 409-1169 and we'll reply within one business day to set a time. I come out myself, look at the attic and crawl space, and give you a free written estimate with photos of what I found. There's no obligation to go ahead.
(559) 409-1169Yes, the city requires every person or business doing business inside Lemoore's city limits to hold a Business License Certificate. Each license expires on December 31 and has to be renewed every year, so it's fair to ask whether a contractor's is current. The city lays out its rules on its business license page.
A contractor needs a state license when the job needs a building permit, uses any additional workers, or costs $1,000 or more in labor and materials. The Contractors State License Board licenses and regulates contractors in California, and it treats a small job as exempt only when no permit is needed, no employees work on it and the whole thing comes to less than $1,000. I'm glad to show you our license at the estimate.
No more than $1,000 or 10 percent of the total contract price, whichever is less. That's the state contractors board's cap for home improvement projects, so a bigger request up front is a reason to stop and ask questions.
Usually not for loose fill or air sealing, because that work stays up in the attic and at the hatch. Spray foam is different, since you stay out until the re-entry time, the wait the foam maker sets before people can come back in. I'll tell you at the estimate which one your job needs, so you can plan for the kids and pets.
We're based in Visalia and work across the cities around it, from Kingsburg and Selma to Hanford and Woodlake. These are the cities with their own page here, and if yours isn't named, call and ask.
Call (559) 409-1169 or send the form, and you'll know what order your job should go in, and whether part of it belongs to another trade, before any money changes hands.
