How Johns Manville Products Fail, and How We Fix Them

Johns Manville makes solid insulation, but Los Angeles attics present a specific set of problems. Here’s what we see on Johns Manville jobs across the city, from Encino to Eagle Rock to San Pedro:

• ComfortTherm batts get shredded for nesting. ComfortTherm batts have a polyethylene-facing that rodents love to tear apart for nesting material. The facing gets pulled back, the fiberglass gets scattered, and the R-value drops fast. We remove the damaged batts, sanitize the area, and install new Johns Manville material where needed.
• Blow-in fiberglass (Climate Pro or Attic Protector) compresses under rodent traffic. When rats or mice build runways through blown-in insulation, they pack it down. That compression cuts the air pockets that do the insulating work. In Los Angeles, where attics already bake at 130-plus degrees in August, even two inches of compression shows up on your cooling bill. We fluff and redistribute where salvageable, and remove and replace where it’s not.
• Droppings and urine saturate the insulation and dry into dust. Rodent urine crystallizes into the insulation fibers and becomes airborne dust that sneaks into your ductwork. This is a health issue, not just a smell issue. We remove contaminated Johns Manville material and run a full attic decontamination before anything new goes in.
• Baffle and vent blockage from nesting. Johns Manville rafter vents and soffit baffles are supposed to keep airflow moving from the eaves. Rodents jam them with nesting material, which kills attic ventilation and superheats the space. We clear the vents and verify airflow before we finish the job.
• Chewed wiring near Johns Manville pipe and duct wrap. We regularly find gnawed Romex running through Johns Manville pipe insulation and duct wrap. The insulation itself is fine; the rodents used it as a pathway. We flag the wiring for you, recommend an electrician where needed, and seal the runways so it doesn’t happen again.

Our Johns Manville Attic Cleaning & Rodent Proofing Process

1. 1
   Call and talk to a real person. You call (213) 782-8141, describe what you’re hearing or smelling, and we schedule a time that works. No voicemail tag.
2. 2
   We inspect the attic and identify every entry point. We map out where rodents are getting in, what they’ve damaged, and which Johns Manville materials need to be cleaned, treated, or replaced.
3. 3
   We remove the contaminated insulation. Using commercial extraction equipment, we pull out damaged or soiled Johns Manville batts or blown-in fiberglass, bag it, and remove it from your home.
4. 4
   We sanitize and decontaminate. The attic gets a full treatment to neutralize droppings, urine, and the smell. We also treat for fleas and mites that come in with rodents.
5. 5
   We rodent-proof the attic. We seal entry points with steel mesh, hardware cloth, and exclusion foam. Rodents can chew through spray foam alone, so we always pair it with metal. This is the step that stops the problem from coming back.
6. 6
   We install fresh insulation and verify airflow. We bring the attic back to proper R-value with the right Johns Manville product for your home, clear the vents, and make sure air is moving. Then we walk you through what we did and back it with the 90-Day Done Right Promise.
