Schertz is a fast-growing suburban city in the northeastern San Antonio metro, positioned along IH-35 between San Antonio and Austin. The city's housing stock is among the newest in the region, with a large share of homes built in the 2000s and 2010s across planned subdivisions like The Crossvine. Newer construction here means homes were built to more recent energy codes, but builder-grade insulation in these subdivisions often meets the minimum rather than optimizing for the area's hot summers and occasional winter freezes. The city's proximity to Randolph Air Force Base drives a steady population of military families who cycle through the housing market regularly.

Schertz's housing stock is newer than most of the San Antonio metro, with a large share of homes built in planned subdivisions over the past two decades. Builder-grade fiberglass batt insulation in these homes meets Texas energy code at the time of construction, but code minimums are set as a floor, not a target. Attics in these subdivisions often have room to add R-value through blow in blanket insulation without disturbing the existing material.
The city's hot summers along the IH-35 corridor mean attic temperatures in these newer homes can still climb to levels that stress the building envelope. Air sealing around recessed lights, attic access panels, and HVAC duct penetrations is a common weak point in production-built homes. Spray foam applied in these specific locations closes gaps that batt insulation cannot address on its own.
Military families in Schertz and the surrounding Universal City and Converse area often move into homes that have had multiple occupants and varying maintenance histories. Insulation that was installed correctly at construction can be disturbed by HVAC work, pest activity, or moisture events over time. We assess the current condition of attic and wall insulation before recommending a service, so the work addresses what is actually needed rather than a generic upgrade.
At a glance
Fiberglass batt insulation is the dominant product in Schertz's newer subdivisions, and proper installation depth and coverage in these attics is the most common area where builder-grade work falls short. Blow in blanket insulation is a practical upgrade for homeowners in 2000s and 2010s builds who want to add R-value over existing attic batts without a full replacement. Spray foam insulation is used in targeted areas like rim joists, attic hatches, and around HVAC penetrations where air sealing is the specific goal. Removal of old insulation is less common in Schertz's newer stock but is needed when moisture from a roof leak or HVAC condensation has damaged existing material.

Common questions from Schertz, TX customers about our services, process, and coverage.
Often, yes. Homes built in the 2000s and 2010s were insulated to the energy codes in effect at the time, which have since been updated. Builder-grade fiberglass batt insulation in attics frequently meets the minimum R-value but leaves air leakage paths around penetrations and framing gaps. Adding blow in blanket insulation over existing attic batts and sealing air leaks with spray foam in targeted areas can meaningfully improve performance in these homes.
Fiberglass batt insulation comes in pre-cut panels that fit between framing members. Blow in blanket insulation is loose-fill material that is blown into the attic space, covering framing members and filling irregular gaps more completely. In Schertz's newer homes where batt insulation is already present, blow-in is often added on top to increase the total R-value without removing the existing layer.
Attic insulation is the primary barrier between the outdoor heat and the conditioned living space below. In Schertz's hot summers, an under-insulated attic allows heat to radiate down into the home, forcing the air conditioner to run longer and harder. Adding R-value through blow-in insulation or improving air sealing with spray foam reduces that heat transfer and lowers the cooling load on the HVAC system.
