When Insulation Removal Is Necessary

Insulation removal may sometimes not be necessary when you are just trying to improve upon your existing insulation. In such situations, you only need to add fresh insulation on top of the existing insulation to bring up the R value. This method would save you money over the cost of paying for removal services.

Insulation removal

might be necessary if the original material becomes damaged. Pests and excess moisture can result in unhealthy air quality for your family and an energy drain for your home. If contaminated, it puts you and your loved ones at risk. We can remove the damaged insulation, sanitize the area and add clean replacement insulation..

Old Water Damage

If your house has suffered water damage or an undetected leak, your fiber-based thermal protection could have been damaged. While newer varieties resist moisture better than before, your home’s original barrier might have gotten wet. This can compress it and lower its R-value. Worse, it can lead to hidden mold and mildew in your attic or subfloor. If fungus gets into your heating and air conditioning ducts, it can worsen allergies and lead to other respiratory distress. Insulation removal and replacement with a new layer means cleaner and healthier air throughout your house.

Pest Infestations

Have four-legged visitors been hiding out in your attic insulation? Many types of critters can get inside but the most common is rodents. They are attracted to various kinds of fiber-based thermal barriers; they shred it and nest in it. Rats alone can carry more than 30 different diseases. Droppings, urine and natural oils may be in your thermal barrier right now. We can do a complete insulation removal and decontamination, and replacement it with fresh, new insulation. Even more important, we can block the path your tiny intruders took!

Boost Your Energy Efficiency

Is your home as energy efficient as it could be? Not if the current thermal barrier is matted down by old damage. Fibrous insulation relies on thickness to achieve its resistance to the transfer of heat. If it’s compressed, any gaps will be open to temperature changes. Warm air will escape from your home to the outside in winter and into your home during the summer.

If your energy bills have been rising, it’s time to look into it. Let me help!

Expert Attic Insulation Removal

Blanket-type fiberglass is the easiest to remove. We hand-roll it and wrap it securely to reduce the chances of contaminants becoming airborne. And we clean up any dirty areas before we lay a fresh layer. Blown-in fibers are extracted with secure hoses attached to powerful vacuums. Because the vacuum source is outside your home, it creates a negative pressure that ensures fibers will not fly around and contaminate your indoor air space.

Smoke Damage

Southern California is no stranger to wild fires. Even if your home wasn’t affected by the flames, the heavy smoke will penetrate through into your attic and be absorbed by the insulation, requiring expert insulation removal and sanitization.
