Our team at Atticare provides professional attic cleaning and insulating services improving the overall health and efficiency of your home. With years of experience and a proven track record, we have what it takes to ensure your attic is both clean and energy-efficient.

Attic Cleaning

One of the most effective ways to better your indoor air quality and extend the lifespan of your insulation is to have your attic cleaned on a periodic basis. 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 living space.

Microscopic bacteria and fungal spores can spread throughout your home and impact the air you inhale every day. This creates a health risk for you and your family, as such contaminants have been linked to reduced immune function and respiratory problems, which is why keeping your attic clean and sanitary is crucial for ensuring your home’s air quality remains safe and breathable.

Atticare’s professional team of skilled experts will begin by conducting inspection of your attic and report back to 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 those you love.

The Attic Cleaning Process

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

The entire cleaning process consists of the following:

Insulation Removal & Surface Clean – Our team will remove your old insulation as well as any contaminants, debris, or waste and properly dispose of it. Once finished, we will reveal any underlying issues.

Optional Sanitization and Decontamination (for attics) – If you decide you’d like a deeper clean, we can use advanced cleaning technology to remove fungi, germs, mold, mildew and bacteria. Once released, these contaminants might cause respiratory problems, bacterial infections, viral diseases, and other health issues. Our skilled professionals will ensure your home is completely free from contaminants, bacteria, and odors.

Optional Rodent Proofing – If we identify any potential rodent entrances during the removal and cleaning processes, we can install barriers to keep them out of your home in a safe, effective way.

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.

Optional Air Duct Repair and Replacement – 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 Services – Once your attic has been cleaned and sealed, our insulation experts can collaborate with you to find an insulation well suited to the structure of the space as well as your budget.

Attic Insulation

When you erect a new house, installing modern, top-notch insulation during the construction process is a key investment in your home’s well-being. Having your attic and crawl space adequately insulated allows you to immediately save on energy costs from the moment you move in. 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 select the ideal solution for the size of your attic and crawl space as well as the climate in which it is located.

Depending on the state of your insulation, we may advise you either replace areas of your insulation that have suffered damage or completely overhaul the entire area. This all depends on the condition of your current insulation and whether or not it has been impacted by pests, mold, or water damage.

If the insulation in your attic and crawl space has evidence of rodent infestation, it should be removed as promptly to avoid health risks. Simply adding a additional layer of insulation on top of the old one won’t address the problem because smells and contamination will remain. Replacing the old insulation with a new substitute is the best solution to decontaminate the space and improve the energy efficiency of your home.
