The Art of Attic Cleaning and Insulation Removal

Attics can be the dirtiest area of your home. It is very common for your attic to become infested with rodents such as mice, rats or birds. This can lead to an unhealthy living environment. If your insulation is old it may be time to replace it. Old insulation can lead to higher electric bills. By replacing old insulation you can save energy and help with heating and cooling.

Insulation Installation

The attic is by far the most important area of your home to have insulated. We suggest homeowners make certain their attic is well insulated before insulating any other area of their home. All too often homeowners believe they have adequate insulation in their attic and in fact only have a small fraction of what they should have. Like many things in life, some people rather not know and just presume things are fine, all the while their heating and cooling bills are unreasonably high or they’re suffering with an uncomfortable home. Check your attic insulation!

Many homeowners inquire about removing or vacuuming the existing insulation from their attic, often this is not necessary. The only time we recommend removing old insulation is when the insulation has been fire damaged, water damaged or heavily infested with rodents. Over the last couple years we’ve seen a growing trend for other insulation companies to flippantly recommend that the existing insulation should be removed prior to installing new insulation.
