Attic Cleaning Services

A key method to better your indoor air quality and prolong the life of your insulation is to have your attic cleaned periodically. The air that flows through your home inevitably passes through your attic, so if this area of your home is not clean, contaminants can be introduced to your indoor environment.

Microscopic bacteria and mold spores can circulate throughout your home and impact the air you breathe daily. This poses a health hazard for you and your family, as such contaminants are associated with weakened immune systems and respiratory problems, which is why maintaining a clean and sanitary attic is crucial for ensuring your home’s air quality remains safe and breathable.

Atticare’s professional team of skilled experts will start with a thorough inspection of your attic and provide you with their findings. Armed with this information, we will assist you in prioritizing solutions with the goal of creating a healthier and more energy-efficient home for you and your loved ones.

The Attic Cleaning Process

Atticare’s approach to cleaning for attics can be tailored to be more simple or in-depth according to your home’s needs. Our team will identify any issues as we discover them and collaborate with you to identify the most cost-effective and efficient solutions to deal with them.

The entire cleaning process includes the following steps:

Removal of Insulation and Surface Cleaning – Our team will take out your old insulation as well as any contaminants, debris, or waste and dispose of it properly. Once completed, we will be able to see any issues hidden beneath.

Sanitization & Decontamination (optional) – If you decide you’d like a more thorough cleaning, we can use advanced cleaning technology to remove fungi, germs, mold, mildew and bacteria. Once airborne, these contaminants might cause respiratory problems, bacterial infections, viral diseases, and other health issues. Our skilled professionals will make sure your home is 100% free from contamination, bacteria, and odor.

Rodent Proofing (optional) – If we notice any potential entry points for rodents during the removal and cleaning processes, we can construct blockades to safely and effectively prevent their entry.

Air Sealing (required in CA, attics only) – Our team will fill and caulk any gaps between the attic and living space to stop energy loss from the attic, making your home far more energy-efficient. This measure is mandated by California’s Title 24 building code whenever insulation is removed.

Air Duct Repair & Replacement (optional) – If our team recognizes any damage to your air ducts, we will bring it to your attention and can address the repairs of replacements if you decide you’d like us to do so. Making sure your ducts are airtight goes a long way to preventing energy waste.

Insulation – Once your attic has been cleaned and sealed, our insulation experts can collaborate with you to select insulation that suits the structure of your space and fits your budget.

Attic Insulation

When you build a new house, installing modern, top-notch insulation during the construction process is a vital investment in your home’s long-term health. Having your attic and crawl space properly insulated allows you to start saving on energy costs from the moment you settle. Attic and crawl space insulation are available in a range of different forms, which differ in cost and effectiveness. The insulation specialists at Atticare can help you find the ideal match for the size of your attic and crawl space as well as the environment in which it is located.

Depending on the condition of your insulation, we may recommend you either upgrade areas of your insulation that have suffered damage or fully replace the entire area. This all is based on the age of your current insulation and whether it has been impacted by pests, mold, or water damage.

If the insulation in your attic and crawl space has signs of rodent infestation, it should be removed as soon as possible to avoid exposure to health issues. Simply adding a additional layer of insulation on top of the old one won’t address the problem because odors and pollution will still persist. Replacing the damaged insulation with a high-quality substitute is the best option to clean the space and increase the energy efficiency of your home.
