This page is for homeowners who already have Owens Corning blown in insulation in their Pasadena attic, or who are deciding whether to install it. We’ll explain what fails, what replacement actually costs in this market, and how we handle the work under The Garrison Standard.

How Owens Corning Products Fail – and How We Fix Them

Owens Corning makes solid insulation, but every blown in product has weak points when it’s installed wrong or simply ages. Here’s what we see in Pasadena attics, and what we do about it.

• Atticat Fiberglas settling below the original R-value. Owens Corning Atticat is a loose fill fiberglass that’s meant to hold its loft, but in Pasadena’s dry heat, poor initial installation or attic traffic compresses it over five to ten years. We measure what’s actually up there with a depth gauge, not a guess, then top it off or remove and re-blow to the R-value your home needs.
• ProPink blown in fiberglass with moisture intrusion from bathroom vents. When a bathroom exhaust fan vents into the attic instead of through the roof, ProPink absorbs moisture and mats down. That kills the R-value fast. We find the venting problem, correct it, and only then re-blow the insulation. Insulation is the last step after air sealing, not the first.
• Owens Corning Thermafiber mineral wool that’s been walked on or stored under. Thermafiber handles heat well, but it doesn’t bounce back after heavy boxes or foot traffic compress it. In older Pasadena homes with tight attic access, we see this a lot. We remove the compacted sections and re-blow with the right density for the joist spacing.
• Loose fill with no air sealing underneath. This is the most common Owens Corning failure we fix, and it’s not the product’s fault. If the attic floor isn’t air sealed around can lights, plumbing penetrations, and top plates, blown in insulation can’t do its job. Cold air moves through those gaps and undercuts the insulation. We air seal first, then blow. That’s the difference between insulation that looks thick and insulation that actually works.
• Old or unlabeled Owens Corning fiberglass with rodent damage. In Pasadena neighborhoods with mature trees and older homes, rodents get into attics and tunnel through blown in insulation. We remove the contaminated material, seal the entry points, sanitize, and blow in fresh Owens Corning product at the correct depth.

Our Owens Corning Blown In Insulation Process

Every Owens Corning blown in insulation job in Pasadena follows the same sequence. No shortcuts, no improvisation.

1. 1
   Call and assessment. You call (626) 628-2368, a live person answers, and we schedule a visit inside a specific window. A background-checked, uniformed technician arrives at the time we gave you.
2. 2
   Attic inspection. We measure existing insulation depth, check for air leaks, moisture, and rodent activity, and document it all in writing. You get the findings, not a sales pitch.
3. 3
   Written price. Before any work begins, you receive a written quote for the exact job: removal if needed, air sealing, and blown in insulation at the R-value your home calls for. That number doesn’t change at the door.
4. 4
   Prep and air sealing. We seal top plates, wiring penetrations, plumbing stacks, and can light housings. If old insulation needs to come out, we remove it with a vacuum system and dispose of it properly.
5. 5
   Blow in Owens Corning product. We install Owens Corning blown in insulation to the R-value specified in your quote, checking depth across the entire attic so there are no thin spots in the corners.
6. 6
   Final check and guarantee. We walk the attic with a depth gauge, show you the result, and leave you with a written guarantee valid for 365 days under the Done Right Promise. If the work fails in that year, we come back at no charge.

What moves the price: attic access size, how much old material needs to come out, whether air sealing is included, and the target R-value for your Pasadena home. We don’t quote over the phone sight unseen, because that’s how surprises happen. What we do is come out, inspect, and hand you a written number. Estimates are free. Call (626) 628-2368.
