Superior Bremerton Insulationis Bremerton’s locally owned insulation contractor, offering attic insulation, crawl space vapor barriers, and blown-in insulation for homes throughout the city. We have been serving Bremerton homeowners since 2018, and we reply to every inquiry within one business day.
Many Bremerton homes built in the 1940s and 1950s were never properly insulated from the start. Upgrading your home insulation cuts heating bills and makes every room more comfortable through the long wet winters the peninsula is known for.
Heat rises, and in a Bremerton home without adequate attic insulation, it rises straight out through the roof. Proper attic insulation keeps warmth inside during the rainy season and is the single highest-return insulation upgrade most homeowners can make.
Bremerton sits on clay-heavy soils that hold moisture year-round, and that moisture works its way into unprotected crawl spaces. A vapor barrier stops ground moisture before it reaches floor joists, subfloor, and the living space above.
Older Bremerton homes often have irregular framing cavities and partially filled wall bays that blown-in insulation fills completely without opening walls. It is a cost-effective way to upgrade a house that was built fast to house shipyard workers and never fully weatherproofed.
Air leaks in Bremerton homes let in the damp maritime air that drives up heating costs and can introduce moisture into wall cavities. Sealing gaps around plumbing, electrical, and framing penetrations works alongside insulation to keep conditioned air where it belongs.
Cold floors in a Bremerton home are almost always a crawl space problem. Insulating the floor joists above an unvented crawl space keeps floors warm and protects wood framing from the ground moisture that is common throughout the hillside neighborhoods here.
Bremerton averages 55 to 60 inches of rain per year, and that moisture puts consistent pressure on every part of a home - rooflines, siding, crawl spaces, and foundation walls. The city’s older neighborhoods, built heavily in the 1940s and 1950s to house Puget Sound Naval Shipyard workers, were put up quickly and rarely include the moisture management and insulation that current Washington State energy code requires. Many homes in Manette, the East Side, and the hillside streets above downtown are still running on whatever insulation was installed 70 or 80 years ago, which is often very little.
The terrain adds another layer of complexity. Bremerton is noticeably hilly, with many properties built on slopes that direct water toward foundations and crawl spaces. Clay-heavy soils throughout Kitsap County drain poorly, so moisture that collects against a foundation wall or under a crawl space does not quickly disappear. Freeze-thaw cycles in winter - where temperatures bounce above and below freezing for days at a time - put additional stress on concrete, siding, and any gaps in the building envelope where air or water can enter. A contractor who knows Bremerton understands these patterns and plans the work accordingly.
Our crew has worked throughout Bremerton since 2018, pulling permits through the City of Bremerton Development Services office and working on homes ranging from wartime-era Craftsman bungalows in Manette to newer construction on Wheaton Way. We understand what the combination of high annual rainfall, clay soil, and an older housing stock actually does to a home over time.
Most of our Bremerton calls come from neighborhoods east of the ferry terminal and along the Wheaton Way corridor, but we serve all parts of the city - from the hillside streets above downtown to properties near the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard waterfront. The Manette Bridge area and the East Side are familiar territory, and we understand how quickly moisture problems develop in older homes close to Port Washington Narrows. We also regularly serve homeowners in nearby Gorst, WA, just south of Bremerton along the highway corridor where crawl space and moisture issues are just as common.
Many of our Bremerton customers commute to Seattle on the Washington State Ferry and are not home during the day. We are used to working on properties without the homeowner present and communicate by phone or text throughout the job so nothing is a surprise when you get home.
Reach out by phone or through the online form and we will get back to you within one business day. We will ask a few questions about your home and the problem you are trying to solve before scheduling a visit.
We visit your home, look at the attic, crawl space, or walls, and give you a written estimate before any work begins. There is no charge for the assessment and no pressure to move forward on the spot.
We schedule the work at a time that is convenient for you. Most attic and crawl space jobs are completed in a single day, and you do not need to be home while we work unless you prefer to be.
When the job is done, we clean up the work area and walk you through what was installed. We answer any questions about maintenance and leave you with documentation of the work completed.
We serve all of Bremerton - from Manette and the East Side to Wheaton Way and the hillside neighborhoods above downtown. Free estimates, no pressure, one business day response.
(360) 287-4054Bremerton is the largest city in Kitsap County, with a population of roughly 45,000 people. It sits on a peninsula surrounded by Puget Sound inlets, connected to Seattle by the Washington State Ferry system from the terminal right in downtown. The city’s character is shaped by the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard, which has operated on the waterfront since 1891 and remains one of the largest employers in the state. Neighborhoods range from the walkable, historic character of Manette - connected to downtown by the Manette Bridge across Port Washington Narrows - to newer residential development along the Wheaton Way corridor and up into the East Hills.
The housing stock in Bremerton reflects its history. A large portion of the city’s homes were built in the 1940s and 1950s as wartime and postwar worker housing, and those neighborhoods retain a mix of Craftsman bungalows, small Cape Cods, and simple ranch-style homes. Owner-occupied homes sit alongside a significant rental population driven by military families who rotate through Naval Base Kitsap. For homeowners interested in neighboring communities, we also serve Silverdale, the commercial hub of the Kitsap Peninsula just north of Bremerton along Highway 303.
