Removal in Bonita, CA.
Removal for Bonita homes, done by a vetted local insulation crew. Old insulation that has been chewed by rodents, soaked by a roof leak, or covered in soot from a fire isn't worth saving. We bag the area off, run a high-volume vacuum hose to a truck on the curb, and pull the old material out without dragging it through the house.

Standard attic upgrade plus equestrian-property add-ons are typical scope.. South County removal is usually rodent or moisture related.
Do you handle rodent dropping cleanup?
Yes. We treat fouled insulation as biohazard, bag it on the way out, and sanitize the deck before the new insulation goes in. If there is an active infestation, you will need a pest contractor to seal entry points first, we can recommend one.
What if it's vermiculite?
Vermiculite from before 1990 may contain asbestos. We do not remove asbestos-containing material, that's a state-licensed abatement scope. We will identify it on the first visit, refer you to a licensed abatement contractor, and reinsulate after they're done.
