Attic insulation removal cost in Dayton, OH
Straight answers on what attic insulation removal and replacement costs in Montgomery County
Your attic insulation got damaged by pests, water, or fire and now you need it removed. You want to know what it's going to cost before you start calling contractors in Dayton. Here's what removal and replacement typically runs.
Damaged insulation happens for several reasons. Rodents nest in it and leave droppings. Water leaks soak it through. Fire damage makes it unsafe. Mold grows when moisture gets trapped. Once any of these happen, the insulation loses its effectiveness and can make your indoor air unhealthy.
Removal costs $1 to $2 per square foot depending on what caused the damage. Replacement adds another $1.50 to $4 per square foot based on the type of insulation you choose. For a typical 1,000 to 1,500 square foot Dayton attic, expect to pay $3,000 to $10,000 total. Pest damage and fire damage cost more because they require thorough sanitization of the attic space.

What people in Dayton say
"THEY DID A GOOD JOB AND I THOUGHT THE PRICE WAS REASONABLE."
"I worked with Kevin Con, their field specialist. Kevin talked to me over the phone for quite awhile to make sure that I had a good estimate and knowledge of the procedure. The team came out early and they were efficient in the processes. I would highly recommend them especially because they worked so closely with our roofing team to get the job done in one day."
"I am just so happy. They came out on a Tuesday (the owner Steve and his son) and took a look and had a crew of 2 out for me the next day! They got there at 8:30 am and all was completed by 2:00. The follow up was excellent. I could just go on and on. I am very impressed and want to insulate everything NOW because they were so excellent!"
