Everyone knows insulation is important, but are you sure that your roof has enough?
Most Seattle homes are losing precious warmth through under-insulated roofs without even knowing it. That means wasted energy, higher bills, and discomfort that no amount of layering can fix.
At the end of the day, you want a home that feels comfortable, efficient, and protected. That’s where we come in.
You notice it every winter. The house never feels quite warm. You crank the heat, but it’s still drafty. Upstairs is cold, your furnace works overtime, and the monthly energy bill makes your stomach drop. You’ve checked the windows, the doors—even replaced your HVAC. But the real issue? It’s often insulation.
An under-insulated roof doesn’t just mean you’re chilly in the winter. It affects your home’s health year-round.
Condensation and Mold: Poor insulation and airflow can trap moisture, leading to mold in your attic.
Roof Damage: Temperature swings and moisture can reduce roof lifespan.
HVAC Burnout: Your system works harder, dies faster, and costs more to replace.
Environmental Waste: You’re paying for energy that escapes into the sky.
We don’t do one-size-fits-all estimates. At RoofSmart, we treat your roof like a living system. Our insulation service begins with a full attic inspection, thermal imaging, and a custom plan built for Seattle’s climate.
Then we get to work choosing the right insulation type, sealing air leaks, and balancing ventilation.
This isn’t just a job for us—it’s what we geek out on. We love helping homeowners stay warm, lower their energy bills, and extend the life of their roof.
On average, when we replace or add insulation to a Seattle home, it costs around $2,000. This is a general estimate for an average-sized home that is low on insulation throughout the attic.
Here are some factors that can change the cost:

Seattle’s wet, cool climate demands smart solutions. We evaluate your home and recommend the best material for you.
Standard sloped roofs typically get blown-in cellulose or fiberglass. Flat roofs need foam boards or spray foam.
Absolutely. Many older homes weren’t built with today’s energy standards in mind so it's important to update them whenever possible.
A lot of older homes don't meet modern attic insulation or ventilation codes.
