    Attic Construction And Framing

    Most attics are constructed with the exclusive purpose of framing your home’s ceiling. Before you decide to turn your attic into storage space, you need an attic professional to inspect the attic joists to ensure it can handle decking. Many homes’ attic joists are not constructed to hold anything more than ceiling drywall.

    Attic joists that are 2 X 6s or 2 X 8s are not adequate to support flooring. Even if the joists are larger, they still might be unable to support the additional weight. A technician from Attic Projects can inspect your home’s attic joists to see if they are constructed to hold additional weight. If they cannot support more weight, the technician can add structural support and bring it up to code to support more weight. Before using your attic for anything – contact an attic professional.

    Using An Attic For Storage

    If you are solely looking to use your attic for storage, an Attic Projects professional can work with you on ensuring the joists are secure enough and then place the proper decking. From there, technicians will work with you on the type of access you will need to your attic. Most attics have a small opening for access, but many are not built with a ladder for easy entry. Our technicians can provide advice on what the best access method may be for your attic.

    Temperatures can vary greatly in attics, and some items are not advisable to store without risking damage. Our attic professionals will determine the temperature level of your attic and advise you on what items would be okay to store there.

    Converting An Attic To Living Space

    Are you interested in converting your attic into an extra bedroom or maybe a bonus room? Attic Projects can work with you on determining if the current structure of your attic will support the extra space. They can also work with you on a detailed quote for the project. 

    Many factors go into converting an attic into a living space, including, the current structure of the attic, is it’s even feasible to convert it, and what sort of heating, cooling, or ventilation may be needed?

    • Electrical Work

    If you are looking to convert your attic space into a storage or living space, there will be electrical wiring that will need to be set up in the ceilings and walls. With Attic Projects, you won’t have to worry about the electrical work, because we will complete it for you. Anything that requires electrical work, should be left up to the professionals because it can be extremely dangerous.

    • Proper Attic Insulation

    All attics need proper insulation, especially if it’s a living space. Not only will Attic Projects professionals remove any old insulation, but we will also install new insulation. Having proper insulation helps control the temperature of the new room, but also helps lower your electrical usage throughout your entire house. It will be much easier to keep your house colder in the summer and warmer in the winter.

    • Attic Floors and Attic Walls

    Typically, attic walls are not ready to be used as storage or living spaces. Attic floors are usually unfinished and are mostly made of only framing and have visible joints. Most modern attics have trusses, but if you cut or remove the webbing, it makes the trusses weak. If you have cut your webbing, this can affect your ability to convert your attic into a truly safe living or storage space.

    We will inspect the condition of your floors and walls that way we can ensure safety. When inspecting, we look for weak spots so we know the flooring and drywall will be restored correctly and can hold weight.

    Before We Frame Your Attic

    Before our professionals begin converting your attic for storage or living space, we may need to clean your attic. Some attics are havens for rodents or other wildlife. If we notice evidence of rodents or other animals, we will need to remove them from the attic and clean up the mess they leave behind.

    When cleaning up rodent waste, attic professionals use a variety of fogging and vacuuming techniques to rid the area of waste and sanitize the area from harmful germs and bacteria. 

    We then inspect the entire attic space and seal up any holes or cracks where rodents are entering. 

    Finally, our professionals will recommend whether or not your attic should be sanitized before starting construction on your new space.

    Testimonials

    We live in an older home near a large park area. Since buying our home, we’ve had to deal with the occasional rat. These guys came out and sealed my entire attic space – vs setting a few traps. Then vacuumed out the entire space that had nearly 100 years of debris – including from our new roof and insulated the entire house. Love the 5 year warranty against the rats and we already notice how much warmer the house is. The did a great job keeping area clean and protecting floors, walls while working. Highly recommend.

    It’s a stressful situation when you find black mold in your home. The guys at Attic Projects were professional, polite and respectfully clean. They finished the job in a timely manner and went the extra mile to make sure I was satisfied with their work. Once the job was completed we instantly noticed a difference in our home’s humidity- going from 70% to the optimal 50%. I’d highly recommend these guys. Jordan, your customer service was top notch, thank you for making this a stress free experience.

    Attic Projects was so incredibly thorough and detailed with their description of how and why they were going to do each step, I knew I could trust them. These guys get it!! Total professionals, hard workers and they invited me to poke my head up in the attic during and after the job was complete. My in-laws received before and after pics and received a 5-year warranty on rodent proofing This was a big job and these guys absolutely killed it. I’d recommend them to anyone with similar issues. Thanks Attic Projects!!
