What's in your attic?
Attics are a favorite hiding place for rodents and insects
And let's be honest: rodents aren't the neatest guests. Over the years, droppings, urine, nesting material and crushed insulation pile up overhead, and that contamination doesn't always stay in the attic.
We take care of structural issues such as rot and water damage, remove decayed insulation, dust, debris and rodent waste, and leave your attic spotless.

Common questions
Attic Clean Up FAQ
Why does my attic need cleaning?
Rodent droppings, urine and nesting material contaminate insulation and can affect your indoor air, and matted insulation loses much of its value. Cleaning removes the contamination so the attic can be sealed and re-insulated properly.
How long does an attic cleanup take?
Most attic cleanups are completed in a day. Larger attics, or jobs combined with rodent proofing and new insulation, can take longer. Your quote includes a timeline.
Will it make a mess in my house?
No. We line floors and walls along the path to the attic and clean up before we leave.
What if you find mold in the attic?
Damp attics are common in our climate, usually from poor ventilation, bathroom fans venting into the attic or small roof leaks. We'll show you what we find and can handle mold remediation and the moisture source in the same project.
Do you seal the attic so rodents don't come back?
Yes. Cleaning without sealing just invites the problem back, so rodent proofing is part of our recommendation whenever we find activity.
