Insulation Removal FAQs
Is insulation removal safe?
Yes — when done properly with protective gear, containment, and professional equipment. If your home is old and might have asbestos, we recommend a testing specialist first.
How long does removal take?
It depends on attic size, type of insulation, and how contaminated it is. Many jobs take 1 to 3 days for full removal and cleanup.
Will my home get dusty?
Not if done properly. We isolate, vacuum with HEPA filters, and seal entry paths — so the rest of your house stays clean.
Do you remove asbestos-containing insulation?
We do not remove asbestos ourselves unless certified. If asbestos is likely, we refer you to licensed asbestos remediation teams. For other insulation we can remove safely.
What happens after removal?
We prep the attic: seal air leaks, treat for mold or pests, inspect framing, and then you can install new insulation. The fresh slate ensures maximum performance.
