Contaminated
Insulation Removal
If your insulation has been damaged or contaminated by rodents, pests, moisture, smoke, or age, simply covering it with new insulation may not solve the problem.
HD Horne will inspect the affected area, identify the source and extent of the contamination, and determine whether the insulation should be removed and replaced. Depending on the cause of the damage, the work may also qualify under your home insurance policy.
We safely remove contaminated insulation, address hidden air leakage and entry points, and install new high-performance insulation to help restore a cleaner, healthier and more comfortable home.

THE PROBLEM
When Does Insulation Need to Be Removed?
Contaminated insulation removal may be necessary when insulation has been damaged by rodents and pests, moisture, smoke, odours, or deterioration over time. Once affected, insulation may no longer perform as intended and can leave contaminants, unpleasant odours, or damaged material hidden in your attic or crawl space.
Simply adding new insulation over the top doesn’t remove the underlying problem. In some cases, the affected insulation needs to be removed so the area can be properly cleaned, inspected and prepared for new insulation.
~ Rodent, pest or animal contamination
~ Wet, mouldy or moisture-damaged insulation
~ Smoke and persistent odours
~ Old, damaged or deteriorated insulation
