We removed all the old fiberglass insulation. Why? It's not the correct insulation type, for a variety of reasons. Blown-in cellulose is the appropriate application. Along with that, the pipe and wire penetrations that come into the attic are not air-tight. We need to access all of these point to ensure heat loss is at a minimum! This insulation is also full of mouse droppings (mice love pink fiberglass).
Once the removal, air sealing and new baffles are completed, the new blown-in cellulose can be installed.
Beautiful work here by our crew for this London homeowner.

This is another attic that has fiberglass insulation in the joists. We know that this isn't an ideal product for the attic- not to mention mice love fiberglass insulation! After we removed the insulation, our team used closed-cell foam to seal top plate, wire and pipe penetrations to ensure minimal heat loss! Finally, we returned the following day to blow-in new 17" R60 cellulose insulation. We also added air sealing around the hatch access.
Great job Logan, Shane and Tyler in this home!
Our product Mold-X2 is a special two-part system of botanical and stain remover. This means we are killing the mould and then also removing it from the lumber! The result are essentially immediate. The product can also be used on concrete.
Great job by our installer Logan here! This attic is well on its way to being dry, safe and comfortable- helping this home save money on energy bills.
