Insulation Contractors in Wilsonville, OR

Our work as insulation contractors in Wilsonville splits between two kinds of clients: people who live in the house, and people who rent it out. In the 2020 census, 49.4% of occupied homes in the city were owner-occupied and 50.6% were rented. That near-even split changes how we talk about a job. An owner-occupant wants comfort and lower bills. A landlord wants fewer tenant complaints, fewer service calls and a property that holds up between tenants.

For homeowners

If you live in your Wilsonville home, start with the rooms that bother you. Cold upstairs bedrooms, a hot second floor in summer and drafty corners usually trace back to the attic or to walls that were never filled. We measure, look for air leaks and give you a written plan. Summer matters here as much as winter: Wilsonville's record high was 116°F on June 28, 2021, and an attic that is well insulated and sealed keeps the upper floor from soaking up that heat.

For rental owners

Rental properties take a beating. Insulation gets disturbed when cable or internet lines are run, bath fans may be left venting into the attic, and pests can move in between turnovers. A vacancy is a good time to deal with it. We can:

• Inspect and photograph attic and crawl space conditions for your records
• Remove soiled or damaged insulation and replace it
• Add blown-in insulation and air sealing so units are easier to heat
• Coordinate access with a property manager

You receive a written scope and photos so you can keep documentation with the property file.

Neighborhoods with their own story

Wilsonville's neighborhoods were built at different times and for different purposes, so insulation needs vary across town.

Villebois, on the western edge, is a primarily residential planned community built on the former grounds of Dammasch State Hospital, which opened in 1961 and closed in 1995. Its school opened in 2012 and the community center in 2013, so many homes there are relatively recent; the usual work is topping up attics and fixing specific cold rooms.

Charbonneau is a planned community on the south bank of the Willamette, separated from the rest of the city by the river and home to its only golf course. It is reached across the Boone Bridge on Interstate 5. Homes there are an established part of the city, and attic and crawl space condition varies house to house, so we inspect before recommending anything.

Rain season and crawl spaces

Wilsonville averages 42.62 inches of precipitation a year, most of it from November through March, with December the wettest month at about 6.6 inches. Homes with crawl spaces benefit from a sound ground vapor barrier and insulation that stays tight to the subfloor through that wet stretch. If we find fallen or wet insulation underneath, we will tell you why and what to fix first.

Which county are you in?

Most of Wilsonville is in Clackamas County, but the northern part of the city is in Washington County. For most insulation work that does not matter, but if a project grows into a remodel, permitting questions go to the city and the right county. We will help sort that out before work starts.
