Insulation Removals and Replacements

There are several reasons why you may be considering insulation removal for your home. The first and most common reason you may consider removing your old insulation and replacing it is that your home’s temperature is constantly fluctuating. Gaps or weak areas in your current insulation may allow air to escape and enter your home, resulting in an uncomfortable environment and higher monthly utility bills. While adding extra insulation layers and addressing weak points may resolve the problem, it’s often more cost-effective to consider your long-term needs and replace all your insulation at once.

Another reason why you may be considering insulation removal is because of an animal or insect infestation. Possums, squirrels, rodents, cockroaches, termites, and other unwelcome guests have all been known to nest in insulation. If you’ve experienced an infestation of any kind, it is necessary to have your insulation removed and replaced. Feces, eggs, and other waste are all serious health hazards, and insulation removal is the only way to ensure that you’ve completely addressed the problem.

A third, and more common, reason, why you may be thinking about insulation removal, is that your current insulation is old and outdated. Maybe your home was built several generations ago and has poor insulation, or perhaps it’s been a decade or two since your insulation has been replaced.

East Coast gets cold winters and rain, and if your insulation has become wet, you should immediately contact DJG Insulation for an insulation removal appointment. Wet insulation provides the perfect conditions in which mold spores can thrive, and some older insulation can release dangerous particles into the air when mixed with water. Moreover, insulation works by trapping the air inside your home. The intricate layers of your insulation will become saturated and compressed when exposed to water, rendering all of the affected insulation useless.
