A top-up may suit an attic with dry, usable insulation that is too thin or uneven. Start with the condition of what is already there; adding material is not a fix for a leaking roof, damp insulation or an unresolved pest problem.
Ask CJM to explain the existing coverage, proposed added material and finished target. Preparation should include access to air leaks before they are covered, protection of ventilation paths and an agreement about storage or walkway areas.
What to discuss with CJM
- Inspect the current material and identify gaps.
- Resolve preparation needs and agree on added coverage.
- Top up suitable areas and review the finished depth.
Questions about attic over blow-in enhancement
Can new insulation go over old insulation?
It can be appropriate when the existing material is dry, usable and compatible with the planned assembly. Damaged or suspect material needs assessment first.
Will more insulation stop drafts?
More coverage can slow heat transfer, but air leakage needs separate sealing. Discuss both when asking for an attic top-up.
