Insulation Removal Services

Commercial & Home Insulation Removal Services

From attic insulation removal and replacement to area-specific upgrades, our experienced contractors identify the most cost-effective ways to prevent energy loss through your building envelope. Aging insulation becomes less effective due to damage, contamination, or settling. In some cases, it can even pose health risks if mold, pests, or debris are present. Removing old insulation from attics and exterior walls is the first step in improving your energy efficiency and air quality at home or in a commercial building.

Koala Insulation provides safe, reliable insulation removal services for any type of insulation, including:

Without proper equipment, removing foam and blown-in insulation is hazardous. Our teams have the training and resources to handle these materials safely and dispose of them responsibly.

How Do You Know When to Replace Insulation?

Each type of insulation has an expected lifespan, with most lasting two decades in ideal conditions. In many cases, though, insulation is exposed to conditions that mitigate its effectiveness or introduce health risks, including:

1. Pest Infestations: Insects and rodents damage insulation and leave behind harmful contaminants.
2. Water Damage and Mold: Moisture exposure contributes to mold and mildew growth, which can affect your home’s air quality and your health.
3. Aging or Settling: Over time, insulation can settle or compress, losing its insulating properties. If you’ve owned your home or building for 10-15 years, it may be time to remove and replace insulation that has exceeded its functional life.
4. Renovations: If you’re planning a renovation, it’s a great time to assess your insulation.
5. Energy Inefficiency: If you’ve noticed that your home is drafty, hard to evenly heat or cool, or requires increasingly expensive energy bills, the culprit could be outdated or damaged insulation.

Check for all the signs that your insulation is aging or damaged, and request a professional assessment at the first sign of trouble.
