Attic & Insulation
Turn a Contaminated Attic into a Controlled, Insulated Space.
The attic is often the dirtiest, most neglected part of the air ecosystem. Old insulation, debris, rodent activity, and prior leaks can all turn it into a reservoir for dust and odors. We remediate, treat, and reinsulate so your attic stops working against your home.
1. Assessment & Preparation
- Document existing insulation type, depth, and condition.
- Identify signs of moisture, staining, or prior leaks.
- Look for ductwork issues while we're up there.
- Plan access, containment, and protection of living spaces.
2. Removal, Cleaning & Treatment
- Extract and bag out contaminated insulation.
- HEPA vacuum all accessible surfaces.
- Apply antimicrobial treatments where appropriate and within standards.
- Address obvious air sealing opportunities around penetrations and chases.
3. New Insulation & Documentation
- Install new, properly rated insulation to target R-values.
- Ensure clearances around recessed lights and heat sources.
- Take photos throughout for your records and future resale.
- Provide notes on any structural or mechanical issues we observed.
Signs Your Attic Is Part of the Problem
- Persistent “old house” or musty odor, especially upstairs.
- Heavy dust load even with regular cleaning.
- Evidence of rodent activity or droppings in the attic.
- Visible staining on sheathing or insulation.
- Uneven temperatures between floors, especially near the attic.
Why We Tie Attic Work to the Rest of the System
Cleaning an attic without looking at ductwork or HVAC is only half a fix. Our whole-home approach means:
- We coordinate attic work with duct replacement when needed.
- We consider humidity and ventilation, not just insulation depth.
- We document conditions so your realtor, doctor, or attorney can understand what changed.
