Insulation Removals

Welcome to Insulation Removals

---

As a family owned and run business you will always be sure you are getting the job done to your satisfaction, at the right price with a full guarantee and competitive prices.

Our company uses the most efficient and up to date technology to ensure that the job is done to the customer’s satisfaction. As there are two different types of insulation, loose or batts they are removed in different ways.

Our Trucks are mounted with a large Vacuum Tank purposely built to remove Insulation and Dust from your ceiling cavity. It is a very powerful machine that transfers the old loose material via a 75mm vacuum hose (capable of reaching 50 meters) through proper Hepa filters to a bag house with minimal human contact and exposing very little material to the outside air. Old Batts are bagged up by hand and then the vacuum system is used to remove any excess material/dust left behind.

The Bags of old insulation are then transposed of in accordance with Environmental standards.

Health Risks

---

Not only is replacing your insulation important from a climate perspective but old insulation may pose a health risk to some people.

As you can imagine over several years the build up of dust, dirt and rubbish as well as vermin fesses and nests can be quite significant and with no roof cavity airtight these hazards can seep through even the smallest of cracks, not to mention things such as ventilation fans, light fittings, ducts etc spreading unwanted germs into the air in your house. For those of you who suffer from Asthma/Dust allergies the dust build up in your roof area can be a major health risk and the removal of this preventable trigger can help you breath easy and leave you with less irritation.

The type of insulation that you have in your roof can also have different effects on people’s health; the newer material used has less allergy triggers and in some cases is allergy free.


Safety Risks

---

The percentage of house fires that begin in the roof is growing rapidly every year.

While down lights are an extremely popular choice of lighting these days, they can also be extremely dangerous if not correctly covered. It is a major problem that is not made known enough!

Exposed High temperature down lights in a ceiling is an accident waiting to happen that can easily be prevented.

Movement in the ceiling caused by rodents, nesting birds and even people, can easily cause unfixed or loose material to move against just one down light (among many?) that can reach a temperature of 200-300degrees. As you can imagine old dry insulation would not take long to ignite.

Another scary reality is that smoke alarms can give people with a false sense of security rarely detecting ceiling fires early....so by the time you realise what is happening it is generally too late.
