Stratmoor, which plenty of folks still call Stratmoor Hills, is an unincorporated community governed by El Paso County. It's pretty much wrapped by Colorado Springs on three sides, with Fort Carson to the south. Your mail comes through the Colorado Springs post office under 80906, 80910 or 80911, so a lot of people here assume they're in the city when they're actually in the county.
On our jobs here we see a real mix of houses, and the attics show it. A house that's been through a few owners usually has layers of whatever somebody had on hand, so we figure out what's up there before we decide what goes on top.
What we've learned working in Stratmoor
Building permits in Stratmoor come from the Pikes Peak Regional Building Department, because its permit area takes in unincorporated El Paso County. If your job needs a permit, the work waits on it and on the inspection that follows, so that's the part of the schedule we sort out first. Any contractor doing permitted work here has to be licensed and registered with the department, and you can look that up before you hire anyone. If you're right near the Springs line, it's worth confirming with the county which government serves your address.
We're based in Pueblo and do the same work in the cities around it. Before we start, we find out which building office covers your address, since Pueblo, the county and the Springs side don't all use the same one, and if the job needs a permit we pull it and line up the inspection. The price mostly moves with how many inches are already up there, whether old insulation has to come out first, how many gaps need sealing, which material fits, and how easy the space is to get into. You get your own figure at the estimate, after I've looked at the space.
Services in Stratmoor, CO
Attic insulation
A lot of attics we open here have insulation piled deep in the middle and thin at the edges, which is exactly backward. We even out the coverage and keep the eave vents clear so the attic can still breathe.
Attic air sealing
Drafty rooms usually trace back to open gaps around can lights, pipes and the attic hatch. We close those before any insulation goes down, because insulation laid over an open gap just lets the air walk right through.
Wall insulation
Some of the older houses we see around here have exterior walls with little or nothing in them, which is why one bedroom stays cold no matter what the thermostat says. We add wall insulation from small openings we patch afterward, so nobody has to tear out drywall.
Insulation removal
Insulation that got soaked or turned into a mouse hotel has to come out, or the new layer just sits on the same problem. We bag it, clean up, then insulate, and the mouse is free to find a new address.
Crawl space insulation
Cold floors in winter often mean the crawl space underneath is letting cold air sit right under your feet. We seal and insulate down there so the floor above stops borrowing the crawl space's temperature.
Spray foam insulation
The room over the garage is a common call, since it has cold on more sides than the rest of the house. Spray foam seals air and insulates in one pass, so we use it in tight spots like that where loose fill won't stay put.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a permit to insulate my house in Stratmoor?
Ask the building department before work starts, because it decides what needs a permit here and asks owners with questions to contact it before a project begins. Its permit list includes jobs like basement finishes, furnaces and electrical work, so the answer can change with what else is part of the job. We check for your address up front, and if a permit is needed, we pull it and line up the inspection.
How do I check an insulation contractor's license in Stratmoor?
Use the building department's contractor directory search, which shows whether a contractor is licensed and registered with the department. A contractor whose license isn't in good standing can't get a permit, so it's worth checking before anyone starts on a job that needs one.
Can I pull my own permit and hire a contractor to do the insulation?
No, it's illegal for a homeowner to get a permit for a contractor they've hired. A homeowner permit covers only work on a primary residence you own and live in, and you're expected to know the codes and pass every inspection yourself. If we do the job and it needs a permit, we pull it.
What happens if work that needed a permit was done without one in Stratmoor?
The building department issues a stop work order once it's reported or an inspector sees it, and the order stays until the right permit is in place. If the permit never gets pulled, a notice of non-compliance is filed with the El Paso County Clerk and Recorder as a lien against the property. That's why we settle the permit question before anyone climbs into the attic.
How much does insulation cost for a house in Stratmoor, CO?
I won't put a number on it until I've seen the space, because the price comes down to what's already there and what shape it's in. Closed-cell foam, dense foam that also blocks moisture, costs more than sealing the gaps and topping up blown-in, which is loose fill blown through a hose. Most houses do fine with the second option unless the ductwork runs through the attic, and the estimate gives you your own figure.
How do I know if my Stratmoor attic needs more insulation?
Check how many inches are up there and whether you can see the tops of the ceiling joists poking through, because if you can, there isn't much left. Hot rooms upstairs, a cold room over the garage, a power bill that keeps climbing and air you can feel around the hatch point the same way. If you'd rather not climb up there, I'll do it at the estimate and tell you plainly what I find.
