attic restoration

Most homeowners only go into their attics to store items or when there is a problem with unwanted pests, including rodents, stinging insects, spiders, and others looking for food, shelter, and water. If you are dealing with issues created by pests in your attic, we can help you clean up the space following removal, get it back in top shape, and prevent future intruders from getting inside.

Pests in your attic leave droppings and urine on insulation, wood surfaces, and stored boxes and items. Their waste creates a prime habitat for disease-causing microorganisms and attracts other mammals, insects, and spiders to the space. The diseases resulting from animal waste include Hantavirus, several strains of Meningitis, and Leptospirosis. Because rodents are continually gnawing, the additional moisture left behind in the exposed material by rodents' body fluids can also cause wood rot, mold, and mildew. 

Our expert technicians remediate and restore attics by vacuuming small waste materials, including droppings and hair, with industrial-grade high-powered filtering vacuum systems. Large droppings and material that cannot be vacuumed must be cleared by hand. Insulation that is torn, damaged, or too dirty to be cleaned must be removed and replaced. Nesting material must also be removed. 

Even after thoroughly vacuuming and removing contaminated insulation and other materials, microscopic contaminants can cause disease and leave odors behind. Accordingly, we also clean your attic with professional-strength biocide treatments that are environmentally friendly, effectively destroying organic material and eliminating the odors left behind.

The restoration process involves a comprehensive inspection examining potential pest entry locations within the structure and areas likely to attract them as a shelter and breeding space. The assessment includes interior areas of your property, where we look for spaces that could serve as pathways to your attic and other interior areas. After our inspection, the spots where rodents and other pests can gain entry have been identified and tagged for restoration. 

When your home, business, or other building's attic has been completely cleaned, disinfected, and restored, steps must be taken to prevent future pest infestation or unwanted air and weather intrusion. We design and install exclusionary measures that focus on the weaknesses that pests, air, and water exploit to gain entry to your space. We create individualized solutions for your home's unique needs to seal off cracks and crevices while ensuring that ventilation systems are adequately, properly screened, and working efficiently. Following the restoration of your attic, we offer full-service follow-up and continuing pest control services for your entire property.
