D&M Santa Maria Insulation Company is an insulation contractor in Santa Maria, CA, and we handle 16 kinds of work, from blown-in attic top-ups to spray foam and crawl space vapor barriers. Most calls start with a hot room upstairs, cold floors or a power bill that keeps climbing. The price mostly turns on how big the space is and how easy it is to reach, whether old insulation has to come out first, how many gaps need sealing and whether foam or loose fill fits. The schedule turns on whether another trade or a permit has to come first. Your free written estimate lays out what I found and what it'll take.
Spray foam insulation
Spray foam goes on wet, swells into every crack and seals air while it insulates. It costs more than loose fill, so we mostly suggest it where ductwork or an awkward space makes it worth the money.
Attic insulation
Hot upstairs all summer? Usually the attic is short on insulation or full of gaps, so we seal first and then add depth evenly, all the way out to the edges.
Blown-in insulation
Blown-in insulation is loose fill we blow through a hose across your attic floor, so it settles around joists and wiring better than rolls do. It's the usual choice for topping up an attic that already has some.
Home insulation
When you want the whole house looked at, we check the attic, walls and crawl space together. Then we tell you which one is costing you the most comfort, so you can start there.
Insulation removal
If old insulation got soaked by a leak or is full of droppings, new material on top just buries the problem. We bag it out, clean up and leave the attic ready for a fresh start.
Crawl space insulation
Cold floors in winter usually trace back to an open crawl space under the house. We insulate between the floor joists so the rooms above stay warmer.
Wall insulation
Is an older house cold along its outside walls? We can fill those walls through small holes and patch them, without tearing out your drywall.
Air sealing services
Air sealing is closing the gaps around pipes, wires, can lights and the attic hatch before any insulation goes in. It's what actually stops a draft, and it's where we start.
Basement insulation
We insulate basement walls and the rim joists above them for houses that have a basement. A room down there then feels less like a cellar and more like part of the house.
Closed-cell foam insulation
Closed-cell foam is a dense foam that blocks moisture as well as heat. That makes it a good fit for rim joists, crawl spaces and spots that tend to get damp.
Open-cell foam insulation
Open-cell foam is softer and lighter than closed-cell and costs less. We use it to seal and insulate attic rooflines and inside walls where moisture isn't the worry.
Commercial insulation
Property managers and business owners call us for offices, rentals and shops. We plan the work around tenants and business hours so the place keeps running.
Crawl space vapor barrier
We lay heavy plastic over the dirt in your crawl space and seal the seams. Ground moisture then stays down there instead of rising into your floor and framing.
Vapor barrier installation
A vapor barrier is a sheet that keeps damp air out of walls and ceilings. We put one in where the space calls for it, usually alongside new insulation or during a remodel.
Attic air sealing
Before new insulation goes up, we seal the top plates, wire holes, can lights and hatch in your attic. Insulation laid over open gaps just has a draft blowing through it.
Retrofit insulation
Retrofit insulation means adding insulation to a house that's already built and lived in. It's what most older homes around here need, and we plan it around the people living there.
Who we are
D&M Santa Maria Insulation Company is a licensed and fully insured insulation contractor in Santa Maria, CA, and I've run it since 2013. I learned this trade crawling through attics and crawl spaces around here, and I still come out to look at jobs and write the estimates myself. Today we offer 16 services, and 12 of the cities we work in have their own page, so you can read more about us and how we work. In California, a contractor needs a state license for any job that needs a building permit or comes to $1,000 or more in labor and materials, so it's worth checking whoever you hire.

Why homeowners call us
Leaks sealed before insulation goes in
We close the gaps around pipes, can lights and the attic hatch first, then insulate evenly out to the eaves without burying the vents. That way your new insulation isn't fighting a draft, and the attic can still breathe.
Straight answers on what you need
If sealing the gaps and topping up loose fill will do the job, we'll tell you so, even though foam is the bigger sale. If something needs another trade or a test first, we say so plainly and wait until it's handled instead of covering it up.
Your house protected while we work
We cover your floors, keep the attic dust contained and plan with you ahead of time for any hours you'll need to be out. Most of our jobs are in homes where people are living, so we work that way.
If your house has a room that never feels right, tell us about it and we'll set up a time for me to come look.

What happens after you call
Call or send the form
Call (805) 268-7108 or fill out the form with a few lines about what's bothering you, like a hot bedroom, cold floors or a drafty hallway. We reply within one business day to set up a time for me to come out. There's no pressure and no obligation to go further.
I look and write it up
I come out myself and look over the attic, walls or crawl space, checking how many inches are already up there and what shape they're in. Then you get a free written estimate that explains what I found, what I'd do about it and why, so you can decide with the facts in hand.
We check permits and do the work
Once you decide, we check with the building office that covers your address, whether that's the city or the county. If they say a permit is needed, we take care of the application and set up the inspections. Then we schedule the crew, with me or a lead installer on site.
We walk the finished job together
When the crew is done, I walk the finished job with you and show you what was sealed and how the insulation sits, right out to the corners nobody looks at later. If something doesn't look right to you, we talk it through. Satisfaction guaranteed on every job.
