Attic Services
Attic Restoration:
We specialize in removing old or animal damaged insulation since we do have an attic animal removal back round that has given us plenty of experience in attic restorations and spot cleanups. After we remove all contaminated insulation, nesting materials and animal droppings we will run disinfectant through your attic using a powerful atomizer fogging machine giving you the piece of mind that not only are the debris gone but it’s a safe and disease free space again.
How Critical is a Clean Attic?
Most Florida residents don’t give a second thought to cleaning their attics. At least, not until bad smells inside the home begins to be too strong to ignore. Or even worse, when family members are showing signs of health issues such as allergic reactions, skin irritations, migraines, foggy memory, asthma attacks, or other health concerns, you may have a big attic issue..
One of the biggest reasons your attic can make you sick is the problem of rodents and wildlife having access to your attic and doing damage.
Waste droppings from mice, rats, quarrels, raccoons, or other wildlife (or dead animals) found on your attic can lead to exposure to hazardous and dangerous airborne bacteria, pathogens, mold, and fungus. These toxic dust particles can spread to the entire house through the air ducts and walls, contaminating the entire property. Another way illness and disease can spread to you and your family is by getting bit by infected fleas and mites that has come in contact with rodents living inside your attic.This is especially risky to those with lowered immune systems such as small children and the elderly.
Insulation:
A number of Florida’s homes either don’t have enough insulation in the attic or the insulation is outdated and damaged. Our insulation services include Re-insulating, insulation removal or just simply adding more blown -in insulation for more value. This can drastically reduce your energy bill, and lead to a better quality of life.
Installing high R-value insulation in your attic will create a barrier to prevent the heat or cold from escaping, thus making your home more energy efficient. Sometimes, however, insulation isn’t enough. You’ll also need to prevent hot air from leaking out of the attic through unsealed cracks, roof vents, windows or chimneys. These leaks waste energy and can cause structural damage to a home, especially in snow-prone climates. When warm air escapes through an unsealed gap in the attic, it causes the snow and ice on the roof to melt. This continual thawing process can cause moisture to seep into and damage underlying materials.
These energy-wasting, damage-causing gaps can be sealed with caulking, spray foam, plastic sheeting or weather stripping, each of which has its own benefits and drawbacks [source: Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Clearinghouse]. To determine which will be best for you, search the U.S. Department of Energy Web site or talk to an expert at a trusted hardware store or contracting business. Whatever types of insulation you choose to install in your home’s attic, you can expect to pay more for those with higher R-values.
