Attic Insulation Case Studies: Cellulose Insulation Installed in West Bloomfield, MI
Challenge
Our homeowner called us out to inspect his attic as he explained he had rodents and vermin entering his attic to escape the cold weather. This attic space is located above a office in the home. The symptoms he had discovered were a harsh odor from urine and feces from these four legged unwanted critters. The red squirrels and racoons had eaten and shredded most of the insulation and foam board in the attic. The problem was caused by a unsealed gable overhang. The homeowner choose our company because we could service both the cleaning of the attic and install the insulation in a timely matter for the sale of his home. Our customers biggest concern was the odor. We were able to reassure him that would be gone once we removed all insulation and foam board along with the cleaning.
