Single-story homes and rentals across Moore
Moore sits between Oklahoma City and Norman, and most of the houses we get into there are single-story, usually brick, with an attached garage and the ductwork running through the attic. Some neighborhoods are older and some went up more recently, and some are rentals, so our Moore calls come from landlords and property managers as well as the people living there. We're based in Norman, just down the road, and we do the same work over in Newcastle.
That layout shapes the job. When the ducts share the attic, a gap around a can light or the hatch matters about as much as missing insulation, so we seal before we add anything. The price and the schedule mostly come down to what's already up there and whether any of it has to come out first, and that's what I'm looking for when I come out.
Our services in Moore, OK
In a single-story Moore house, the attic sits over every room, so thin or uneven insulation shows up as a hot back bedroom and a power bill that keeps creeping up. Our attic insulation work starts by measuring how many inches you already have, and we build up the edges along with the middle, since the edges are usually where it runs thin.
Can lights, plumbing pipes and the pull-down hatch leave gaps that let attic air into the house, and laying more insulation on top won't stop that draft. Air sealing means closing those gaps with foam and sealant before we insulate, and I'll show you photos of each one first.
Rentals between tenants sometimes have insulation that was soaked by an old roof leak or fouled by mice, and new material laid over it keeps the problem in the house. We bag the old stuff out and clean up, and we hold off on new insulation until the cause, like that leak, has been fixed.
Most Moore attics we see already have some loose fill, just not enough, and it's often packed down along the path to the air handler. Blown-in insulation, loose fill blown through a hose, tops it up evenly without tearing out what's still good, and we keep it back from the eave vents so the attic can still breathe.
When the ductwork and air handler live in the attic, as they do in a lot of Moore houses, foam sprayed under the roof deck puts them inside the insulated part of the house. Foam seals air while it insulates, so the ducts stop sitting out in an unconditioned attic.
Older houses often have walls with little or nothing in them, and you feel it in the rooms along the outside walls that never quite feel right. We add insulation to those walls without gutting the room, working through small holes that we patch afterward.

How it goes when you call us about a Moore house
Call or send the form
Call (405) 561-8031 any day between 7 AM and 10 PM, or send the form, and we'll set a time for me to come out. If it's a rental, tell us who can let me in.
I walk the attic myself
I go through the attic or crawl space, take photos and show you what's up there before I suggest any work. Then I write it up so you can compare it with anyone else's estimate.
We fix, seal, then insulate
Our crew handles whatever has to come first, like wet or fouled insulation, then seals the gaps and puts in the new insulation. If your job carries a permit, the city does same-day inspections on requests made before 9 a.m., so the request goes in early.
I check the finished work
Before we call it done, I go back up and check the finished work against what we agreed on, edges and eave vents included. Then I walk you through it, so you know what's up there the next time something needs fixing.
Moore insulation questions, answered
Do I need a permit to add insulation in Moore, OK?
It can, because Moore's Inspections Department issues building permits for most residential remodels, additions and improvements. When you're not sure, the city asks you to call the department at 405-793-5051. We check with that office before work starts, and if your job needs a permit, we pull it or walk you through getting one.
How do I apply for a building permit in Moore online?
You apply and pay through the city's GovBuilt portal, which handles all permits and inspections in Moore. After you apply, you can follow the case there through approval and each inspection. The city also runs contractor registration through its online portal.
What building codes apply to insulation work in Moore?
Inside city limits, Moore builds to the International Residential Code for houses and the International Building Code for other buildings. You can read the city's Municipal Code and Land Development Code from the city's code and ordinances page, and the Inspections Division answers code questions.
How much does attic insulation cost in Moore, OK?
It depends mostly on what's already in your attic, so I give you a written figure after I've been up there. Pulling out soaked or dirty insulation, sealing a lot of gaps or working a tight attic through a small hatch all add to it. Foam costs more than sealing the gaps and topping up loose fill, and the cheaper route usually wins unless your ducts are in the attic, which is when foam earns its price.
Do we have to leave the house while you insulate the attic?
Usually not for blown-in insulation, since the crew works from the attic and the hatch, though you'll want kids and pets out of that hallway while we're working. Spray foam is different because it has a re-entry time, the wait before people and pets come back inside, and I'll tell you what it is for the foam we're using before we book the day.
What causes one room in a Moore house to stay hotter than the rest?
Usually it's the attic over that room, where the insulation is thin, packed down or pushed aside, or a gap around a light or vent lets air move through. The room over the garage is a common one, because its ceiling and walls often get less attention than the rest of the house. I'll ask what you've noticed and when, then look over that room first.

A hot room, a draft at the hatch and a bill that crept up each send me to a different part of the attic, so call (405) 561-8031 and describe it.
