One of the most common ways attic insulation is degraded and damaged is because of rodent infestation; this can come about from many different animals including raccoons, squirrels, rats and others, and the damage can extend to other areas such as wiring. After the rodents are exterminated, our decontamination specialists can provide a turnkey, guaranteed service which includes cleanup of nests, feces and any remaining dead bodies as well as decontamination services and reapplication of insulation once the wiring and other areas have been inspected for damage by our decontamination specialists.
After the initial cleanup is finished, the attic is thoroughly rodent proofed and decontamination services are then performed by our decontamination specialists. After a rodent infestation, it is essential that these decontamination services are performed by qualified decontamination specialists. As part of this it is usually the best course of action to have all old insulation removed before new insulation is applied. AtticPros is licensed and insured, and your satisfaction is our number one goal, and our guarantee ensures that you will not have to worry about the work that we do. When you hire us, you are hiring the best decontamination specialists in the business.
After the attic decontamination services and insulation removal is completed by our decontamination specialists we can re-install insulation. We use only the best quality blown cellulose insulation, which is much more efficient than fiberglass alternatives, especially in the winter time. Not many people know this, but fiberglass insulation actually loses R-value in the wintertime, while blown cellulose increases in efficiency. With the rise of energy costs, it is more important than ever to make sure your house is as efficient a possible at staying warm in the winter and cool in the summer. AtticPros is not just a decontamination specialist – we are even better at insulation.
An extremely efficient technique for ensuring that your house does stay as cool as possible in the summer is a type of insulation which goes over the cellulose insulation – this is called a radiant heat barrier, and works differently than standard insulation. Regular insulation works through reducing heat conduction, while a radiant barrier works by reflecting the radiant heat back away from the living area. Normally, the sun heats the roof, and the heat is conducted through the roof, heating the air inside the attic. This, in turn, heats the insulation, and at some point, depending on how effective your insulation is, the heat is conducted into the actual living spaces.
A radiant barrier defeats this conducive element by reflecting the majority of heat away, defeating the conductive nature of the energy of the sunlight against your roof. This will save you a large amount of money over the years and extend the life of your heating and cooling systems, and we are uniquely suited to perform both the decontamination services and the re-insulation of your attic. Our decontamination specialists will perform all work in a professional, timely manner, and all work is guaranteed.
