Those numbers are on this page because a written price before any work starts is the foundation of how we operate – not a policy we apply selectively.
Fast, Local Attic Insulation
Topside Attic Insulation New Braunfels books same-week appointments across our service area, and same-day scheduling is available for urgent situations. When you call (830) 243-6352, you reach a live person who can confirm availability on the spot – not a form that routes to a queue. Under the Haven Standard, you receive a named technician and a text when they’re on the way, so you’re not clearing your schedule for a four-hour window with no update.
We’ve completed work in more than 9,000 homes since 2016, every one with a written scope and a documented record when the crew left. That volume means our teams know the attic configurations common to New Braunfels neighborhoods – the flat-roof additions in older Gruene-area homes, the vaulted sections in newer Canyon Lake builds, the recessed-light fields in Schertz subdivisions from the early 2000s that are among the most consistent sources of conditioned-air loss we measure on blower-door tests in this region.
Why Air Sealing Comes Before Insulation – Every Time
A lot of attic insulation bids you’ll see in New Braunfels price the insulation and leave the air sealing as an optional line item. We don’t work that way. Before any insulation goes in, a technician seals the attic floor: top plates, can-light penetrations, plumbing and electrical chases, and any other bypass that lets conditioned air migrate into unconditioned space. Then the insulation goes on top of a sealed surface.
The reason this order matters in Central Texas is heat load. During a typical New Braunfels summer, attic temperatures routinely reach 140-150°F. Unsealed penetrations act like small chimneys, drawing that heat directly into the living space no matter how thick the insulation layer above them is. Adding R-38 or R-49 blown-in attic insulation over an unsealed attic floor is like adding a second blanket over a screen door – the insulation does real work, but you’re still losing a significant fraction of what your HVAC produces.
We measure the change. On every applicable job, we run a blower-door test – a pressurization reading, in cubic feet per minute at 50 pascals (CFM50), that gives a single number showing how much conditioned air the building envelope was losing before we started and after we finished. You receive those numbers in writing. “We improved your efficiency” is not a deliverable. A before reading of 3,800 CFM50 and an after reading of 1,900 CFM50 is.

AfterWhat Attic Insulation Costs Near New Braunfels
Most homeowners asking about attic insulation top-up near New Braunfels want a number, not a call-us-to-find-out. Here’s what jobs in this area typically run:
| Scope of Work | Typical Range (New Braunfels Market) |
|---|---|
| Air sealing only (top plates, can lights, penetrations) | $450 – $900 |
| Blown-in fiberglass to R-38 (1,000-1,500 sq ft attic) | $900 – $1,600 |
| Blown-in fiberglass to R-49 (1,000-1,500 sq ft attic) | $1,100 – $1,900 |

These ranges reflect current material and labor costs in the New Braunfels and greater Comal County area. Your written price will be a flat number – not a range – based on the actual square footage, attic insulation replacement needs or current condition, and access. If you have a written estimate from another contractor, bring it. We offer a free second opinion on any written estimate and will go through it line by line with you.
Materials we use include blown-in fiberglass and cellulose from Owens Corning, Johns Manville, Knauf, and GreenFiber, and spray foam from Icynene and Demilec where the application calls for it. No proprietary product lock-in.
Areas We Cover Near New Braunfels
Topside Attic Insulation New Braunfels covers a wide band of Central Texas from our base in New Braunfels. The communities we serve regularly include:
- New Braunfels, TX – our primary service area, from Gruene and the older historic core to the newer subdivisions along FM 306 and FM 1101
- Cibolo, TX – Cibolo’s rapid growth since 2018 has produced a large stock of homes with production-grade insulation that rarely meets current R-value recommendations for this climate zone
- Schertz, TX – we see a high frequency of recessed-light penetration issues in Schertz homes built between 1998 and 2010; these are consistent, measurable air-loss points
- Seguin, TX – older Seguin homes often have vermiculite or deteriorated batt insulation that needs removal before new material can be installed correctly
- Selma, TX – close proximity to the I-35 corridor means fast scheduling and same-day availability in most cases
- Universal City, TX – homes near Randolph AFB frequently have attic configurations with ductwork running through unconditioned space; we assess duct location as part of the initial evaluation
- Canyon Lake, TX – vaulted and cathedral ceiling sections are common in Canyon Lake builds; these require different air-sealing approaches than standard flat attic floors
- Live Oak, TX – fully within our service radius; same scheduling and pricing terms apply
If your address isn’t on this list, call (830) 243-6352 and we’ll confirm coverage directly.

What Our Customers Say
"The winter gas bill dropped by about a third. They had estimated a quarter, so they under-promised."
- Genevieve R."Two other companies quoted to blow more insulation on top of what was there. These were the only ones who said the existing material had to come out first, and explained why."
- Clifford E."Crawl space encapsulation done properly. Photographs of the vapour barrier at every seam, and the damp smell in the hallway is gone."
- Ainsley P.
