Leawood Energy Audits and Attic Upgrades for Larger, Newer Homes
In larger homes, comfort problems usually come from air leaks, not missing insulation. MyGreenKC® Insulation (Green Improvement Consulting) has tested and tightened Johnson County homes since 2009. Sean, Caleb, and Luke are the people you’ll talk to, from the first call to the final retest.
Leawood by the numbers: ACS estimates (2020–2024) count about 13,800 homes with a median build year of 1989. Nearly 3 in 10 went up in 2000 or later, and about 13% date from the 1950s. Big rooms, vaulted ceilings and multiple zones make it hard to guess where a house leaks. So we test with a blower door and seal with spray foam, and we sometimes find a house that needs very little.

What a Test-First Visit Looks Like, in Customers’ Own Words
“This was one of the best experiences I’ve had with a home improvement in a long time. The sales pitch was very low key but obvious when I saw how bad my insulation was. The crew was friendly and explained what they were doing as they were doing it. They left no mess and my house is cooler and more energy efficient because of it. …”

“The service provided was great, the staff were punctual, efficient and knowledgeable. They were reasonable in price, answered all my questions and cleaned up all the debris before leaving . The written reports were sent promptly after the testing was completed. I would definitely hire them again.”

From Lee Boulevard to Town Center: Leawood Neighborhoods
The city takes its name from Oscar G. Lee, who built Lee Boulevard after moving to Johnson County in the 1920s. A Kroh Brothers housing development led to incorporation on November 30, 1948. Today Leawood includes established areas such as Hallbrook and Mission Hill Estates, the Town Center Plaza shopping district, and the main campus of the Church of the Resurrection.
- 1950s–60s homes (about one in five): ranches and split-levels with original attic insulation and ducts running through the attic.
- 1980s–90s homes (more than a third): vaulted great rooms, recessed lights and attic hatches over bonus spaces.
- 2000s and later (nearly 3 in 10): large two-stories with rooms over the garage and long runs of rim joist.
As Sandra R.’s review shows, sometimes the honest answer after testing is that the builder did a good job. We’ll tell you that too.
Before You Spend Money on a Big House, Ask These
- Which zone is uncomfortable, and in which season? An upstairs that overheats in July points somewhere different than a cold primary suite in January.
- Will the contractor test leakage across the whole house, or only look in one attic?
- Are there several attics, including small ones above a bonus room or a garage, and will each one get checked?
- Do any rooms have cathedral ceilings that can’t be insulated from above?
- What does the written report recommend skipping, and why?
Anna W. mentions written reports sent promptly after testing. Every Leawood audit comes with one.
Evergy Kansas Rebates and Who Supplies Leawood
The City of Leawood lists Evergy for electricity, Kansas Gas Service for gas and WaterOne for water. Evergy’s Kansas rebate chart, for measures installed on or after January 1, 2026, includes air sealing (up to $300), ceiling insulation (up to $500), duct sealing (up to $250) and a $250 credit toward an audit. Those maximums run through December 31, 2027.
Evergy’s rules require a Comprehensive Energy Audit first, and the contractor has to be authorized before installation. You can confirm we’re listed on our Evergy Find-a-Contractor profile. The federal 25C credit no longer covers insulation installed after December 31, 2025, according to the IRS.

Explore Energy Audits →Leawood Questions
My house is from the 2000s. Is an audit still worth it?
Often, yes. Newer homes can meet code and still leak at the garage ceiling and around the bonus room. The test shows whether that’s happening in your house.
Is the federal insulation tax credit still available?
The IRS says 25C does not apply to improvements placed in service after December 31, 2025. Evergy Kansas rebates are separate.
