What it is
Attic Armor is a ridge-vent barrier installed during the roofing process. It sits directly under the ridge vent, sealing the gap that pests use to get in — while still letting the attic breathe the way your shingle warranty requires.
Why you haven't heard of it
Attic Armor isn't available at supply houses. We work directly with the manufacturer, and material ships straight from them to our office. Mosaic is their preferred roofing contractor in Georgia and the only certified installer serving Northeast Georgia.
When to add it
The best time is during a roof replacement, when the ridge is open. We include it on our shingle replacements. If you're not replacing your roof, ask us whether a retrofit makes sense for your home.
What Attic Armor keeps out
- Squirrels and rats - they chew through the soft baffle of a standard ridge vent and nest in the insulation.
- Bats - a bat needs a gap about the width of a thumb. An open ridge vent is a front door.
- Birds, wasps and insects - nests in the ridge restrict airflow and draw more pests.
Once animals are in an attic they damage insulation, chew wiring and leave droppings that are expensive to clean up. Attic Armor closes the entry point at the ridge so the problem doesn't come back after the animals are removed.
Why it matters at resale
Buyers and home inspectors look for signs of pests in the attic. A roof with Attic Armor under the ridge vent is a feature you can point to in a listing, and because it isn't sold in supply stores, most homes on the market won't have it.
