Why Plantation Homes Are Perfect Candidates
Plantation grew up between the 1960s and the 1980s — the tree-lined streets of Central Plantation and Plantation Park, the acre lots of Plantation Acres, the Jacaranda-area neighborhoods from the late 70s and 80s. Two things stand out about this housing stock: a lot of it is single-story, and a lot of it still has its original attic insulation. A single-story home has the largest possible ceiling area for its size — which means more of your cooling loss happens through the attic than in any other home style. That is bad news with 4 inches of 1975 insulation up there, and very good news for how much a single morning of blown-in insulation can change your FPL bill.

Attic Insulation Services in Plantation
Plantation's big single-story homes have more ceiling per square foot than any other home style, so the attic does more of the work here. That makes every inch of insulation count.
Blown-in for large single-story ranches
Long, low rooflines in Plantation Acres and Central Plantation hide some of the largest attic footprints in Broward. Blown-in covers them evenly in a single visit.
Top-ups for 1960s–80s originals
Homes in Plantation Park and the Jacaranda area often still have their original insulation. Adding over the dry layer to R-38 is the most common job here.
Removal under mature tree canopy
Plantation's big oaks and palms give roof rats an easy path onto roofs. If they've been in the attic, we remove the contaminated insulation before installing new.
Air sealing for back bedrooms
The far bedrooms in a long ranch are usually the hardest to cool. Sealing leaks over them is an add-on that helps those rooms most.
The Best Attic Insulation for Plantation Homes
In a single-story home, nearly all the heat that reaches your rooms comes through the ceiling, so depth matters more here than almost anywhere. Blown-in fiberglass to R-38 gives a large ranch attic one continuous blanket with no gaps between batts.
The other Plantation factor is the trees. Mature canopy keeps roofs shaded, which helps, but it also brings roof rats and squirrels. If the inspection finds droppings or tunnels, removal comes before any new insulation.
- Our pick for most Plantation homes: blown-in fiberglass to R-38 over the existing layer.
- Back bedrooms that never cool: check depth over those rooms first. It's usually thinnest there.
- Big trees over the roof: check for rodent activity before topping up.

What Your Plantation Inspection Looks Like
A Plantation inspection covers the whole length of the attic, because in a long ranch the far end is often the thinnest.
Example thermal scan: the warm strip is where heat is getting through the ceiling.
- Thermal scan room by room — especially the back bedrooms, where heat gain is usually worst in a single-story home.
- Depth from end to end — we measure near the hatch and at the far ends, where insulation is often thinnest.
- Rodent check and one price — droppings, tunnels and nesting photographed, and a written recommendation with one price.
A recent Plantation job: even coverage around the AC ducts and framing, so no section of the ceiling is left thin. See more of our projects.

Plantation Neighborhoods We Serve
Plantation Acres, Central Plantation, Plantation Park, Jacaranda Lakes and the Jacaranda golf-course neighborhoods, and everything between University Drive and Flamingo Road. The big ranches in the Acres deserve special mention: those long, low rooflines hide some of the largest attic footprints in Broward, and the difference a full-depth blanket makes shows up dramatically in the back bedrooms that never used to cool down.
We are based next door in Sunrise, and also serve Davie and the rest of Broward County.
