There May Be MoldWithout a doubt the biggest reason to have professional insulation removal in Tampa is because of the potential dangers within. With fiberglass insulation, there is a good chance that there is something lurking beneath the surface.
There is also a pretty good chance that, throughout the years of use, that insulation has gotten wet somewhere. It can come from leaks, burst pipes, flooding, or a build of condensation. Whatever the case may be, the water can do damage to not only the insulation but your home over time. In some cases, that can lead to mold, which is one of the worst situations that you could deal with. Mold growth is bad in general, but if you have respiratory issues it can be even worse. By removing the insulation yourself, it can leave you exposed to mold and all the dangers that come with it. Depending on the level of moisture involved, it is possible that the old fiberglass insulation can stick to surfaces, crumble, and be an all-around pain to get rid of. Turning to the pros for insulation removal in Tampa means that you don’t have to deal with any of that.

Insulation DamageFiberglass or wool insulation is really only good if it retains its shape. That means keeping weight off of it and generally not standing or stepping on it. Should insulation be stepped on, walked over, or trampled, then it won’t be doing its job at full capability.
Some people might just let that slide in order to avoid the costs of having it removed or replaced. Just keep in mind that insulation that has lost its effectiveness will lose R-value, which pertains to its ability to keep heat out. Thin or trampled insulation will also lead to a loss of energy efficiency, making life harder on your HVAC system. From there, it becomes more difficult for your HVAC system to do its job, causing your energy bills to rise substantially over time. Don’t go along with trampled, flat insulation any longer. Call our team to have insulation removal in Tampa performed before discussing the various options for spray foam insulation. It will definitely be worth the investment in the long-term. |

ContaminationUnwanted pests in the home can have far-reaching consequences. One of the preferred spots for unwanted pests like squirrels, mice, rats, bats, or raccoons is in the attic. The insulation can make for a comfortable space, ideal for these animals to settle down and nest in.
While it would be bad enough to have these unwanted visitors in your home, that isn’t the worst of it. The actual worst of t is that they will leave behind feces and urine, often times in large quantities. This is not only gross but can be potentially dangerous. There are chemicals within animal urine in particular that can be dangerous to the respiratory system over time. Pest control is typically the first call to make when you feel like you have unwanted visitors. But after that, calling for insulation removal in Tampa from the pros should be the next call. It takes more care and the proper tools to ensure that everything is disposed of safely. More importantly, a spray foam can be installed that is not going to block those entry points but is also less inviting to pests as well. |

Water DamageDid you know that water damage will most likely happen with attic insulation? Of course, it can happen anywhere a pipe breaks or a leak occurs. But with fiberglass insulation, water damage can be a major problem.
If you notice that there is water in near your insulation, that would be a prime reason to have insulation removal in Tampa done by the pros. Fiberglass or wool insulation will be damaged by contact with water and it needs to be removed and replaced as soon as possible. Water damage can also lead to the growth and spread of mold, which can have a negative impact on the respiratory system. Don’t risk it. |
