This page is for Costa Mesa homeowners with existing Demilec insulation who need repair, top-up, or full replacement. If you’re not sure what’s in your attic, we’ll identify it during the estimate. Blown-in insulation settles and degrades over time, and Demilec products have their own specific behaviors in our coastal climate that we’ve learned through years of local work.

How Demilec Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

Demilec builds quality open-cell and closed-cell spray foam, but when homeowners have blown-in insulation over or around existing Demilec foam, the failure points are usually where the two materials meet. Here’s what we see most often in Costa Mesa:

• Heatlok HFO Pro shrinkage at the roofline. Demilec’s Heatlok HFO Pro is a closed-cell foam that can pull away from framing over time, especially in Costa Mesa’s summer heat cycling. When blown-in fiberglass gets installed over that gap, air still moves through. We find the separation, air-seal the joint, and re-blow to correct depth.
• Sealection 500 settling under blown-in top-ups. Sealection 500 is open-cell foam, and while it doesn’t shrink the way closed-cell can, it compresses under the weight of dense blown-in cellulose. We see this in attics where a previous contractor blew right over foam without checking density. We remove the compressed section and reinstall with proper layering.
• Airmetic SOYA attracting moisture in marine air. Demilec’s Airmetic SOYA line is soy-based open-cell foam. In Costa Mesa’s humidity, if the roof deck isn’t properly vented, that foam can hold moisture against the sheathing. When blown-in insulation is added on top, that moisture gets trapped. We test moisture content before adding any blown-in material over existing foam.
• Blown-in bridging over Demilec foam at soffit vents. Contractors unfamiliar with Demilec installs often blow insulation straight over soffit vents that keep the roof deck dry. That chokes airflow and leads to condensation. We install baffles before any blown-in work, period.
• Incomplete Demilec coverage from the original install. Some Costa Mesa homes got Demilec foam in the walls but nothing in the attic floor. When we come in for blown-in top-up, we check the original foam’s R-value first. If it’s below what the climate dictates for Costa Mesa, we bring the whole assembly up to spec rather than just adding a thin layer.

Our Demilec Blown-In Insulation Process

Every Demilec job starts with a conversation, not a sales pitch. Here’s how it goes:

1. 1
   Phone call with a live person. You describe what you’re feeling: hot upstairs, cold floors in winter, drafts near baseboards. We take notes before we ever arrive.
2. 2
   Attic inspection and moisture check. We inspect your existing Demilec foam or blown-in material, check for moisture, gaps, and settling. We also look at ventilation and any signs of pest activity.
3. 3
   Material decision. For blown-in work, we use materials matched to your existing setup - blown-in cellulose or fiberglass depending on the space, the foam substrate, and your budget. We explain why we recommend what we recommend.
4. 4
   The blown-in install. We prep the area, protect your home, install baffles where needed, and blow to the correct R-value for Costa Mesa’s climate zone. Most jobs finish the same day.
5. 5
   Final check and cleanup. We verify coverage depth, confirm the area is clean, and walk you through what we did.
6. 6
   90-Day Done Right Promise. If anything isn’t right within 90 days, we come back and make it right. No fine print, no runaround.
