Why Remove Old Insulation?
High energy bills
Did you know that heating and cooling may account for up to 70% of your monthly energy bill? The insulation in your attic can drastically reduce this cost by making your home more energy efficient. Replacing your old insulation with something modern will help preserve the temperature inside your home, saving you money every month.
Pest Problems
Mice, rats, squirrels, raccoons, and bats love to den in attics. If you’ve struggled with wildlife before, there are animal droppings in your attic that are contaminating the air you breathe and rotting the insulation. Your attic should be inspected immediately following animal removal.
Old insulation
Old, worn out, and outdated insulation needs replacing because it is highly inefficient. In some cases, old insulation is toxic and dangerous. Asbestos insulation is carcinogenic and has been known to cause lung cancer.
Moisture Issues
Dampened insulation will get moldy, which risks spreading throughout the house. Mold is not only a threat to the structure of your home but to your family’s health. Wet insulation also fails to insulate the home properly, so it should be removed, and the moisture problem should be fixed.
Insulation Removal Cost
The cost of having your insulation removed depends on the following factors:
Accessibility – How accessible is your attic? The higher the ceiling, the better. Attics with low clearance take more time to service, therefore they cost more.
Size – Smaller attics yield a higher cost per square foot. This is because we need to mobilize the same number of technicians and pieces of equipment for a smaller space.
Debris – Debris such as nails, plywood, shingles, and animal carcasses risk damaging our machinery. If there is debris in the attic, we will need to use caution. This makes the job take longer and costs more.
Amount of insulation – The more insulation is in the attic, the more it will cost to remove it.
Type of insulation – Cellulose and loose-fill insulation is easiest to remove, therefore it costs less. Batt insulation costs more to remove because it must be cut into pieces and removed manually.

DIY VS Professional Attic Insulation Removal
Safety
Working in the attic may be more dangerous than you think. Attics usually have weak flooring, they’re cramped, and they get extremely hot. Removing insulation also risks spreading contaminants into the air. Professionals are aware of the risks involved and have the training to deal with them safely.
Time
Removing attic insulation usually takes somewhere between 4 and 7 hours. Amateur work takes twice the time, at least. Hiring a professional is much quicker and much more efficient.
Proper Tools
Do you have the equipment necessary to get rid of insulation? Professionals have specialized vacuums, pressurizers, receptacles, and disinfectants to get the job done right. They can remove your insulation quickly and effectively.
High-Quality Results
We remove insulation using a special set of vacuums, pressurized air, debris removal equipment, and extraction receptacles. First, we loosen the insulation, then vacuum it into an airtight disposal system in which the insulation goes through a pipe and into the bag in our truck. Once the insulation is removed, we clean and disinfect the attic in anticipation of fresh insulation.
