Why an attic needs more than removal
Once the animals are gone, what they left behind is still there. Droppings and urine soak into insulation, odors linger, and flattened or torn insulation stops insulating. Droppings and urine can carry parasites and disease, for example histoplasmosis from bat and bird droppings and leptospirosis from rodent urine, so this is a cleanup to leave to professionals.
How we restore an attic
- Inspect. We look at how far the contamination and damage have spread.
- Remove waste and contaminated insulation. We take out droppings, nesting material and insulation that is soiled or beyond saving.
- Clean and sanitize. We treat the affected areas to remove bacteria and odors.
- Replace insulation. We install new insulation to restore the attic’s energy efficiency.
- Seal the entry points. We close the way in, so the attic stays clean.
Signs your attic needs restoration
- A musty or ammonia-like smell in the house
- Droppings in the attic or on the insulation
- Stains on ceilings or ceiling drywall
- Flattened, torn or matted insulation
- Rising energy bills with no other explanation
- Scratching or noises you thought were over
Animals that leave a mess
Rats and mice, squirrels, raccoons and bats all leave droppings and damage insulation. We clean up after every one of them.
Part of one complete fix
Attic restoration works best after the animals have been removed and the entry points have been sealed with wildlife exclusion. If the roof, soffits or vents were damaged, we can also handle damage repair.
