Our Services include:
Attic Insulation Removal
Our attic insulation removal service safely extracts old materials that might contain dust, animal waste, or allergens. We use powerful vacuum systems with advanced filtration to capture particles before they can spread through your Hampton home.
Crawl Space Insulation Removal
Damaged sub-floor insulation can cause unpleasant odors, energy waste, and even structural problems. Our team completely removes all affected materials from beneath your home, preparing the space for fresh, effective insulation that will better protect your Hampton property.
Universal Pest Guard Insulation™ Installation
After removal, we install our exclusive Universal Pest Guard Insulation™ that serves two important purposes – it keeps your home comfortable while helping to control common pests like roaches, ants, and silverfish. This special cellulose insulation includes a borate treatment that insects carry back to their nesting areas.
Sanitize & Disinfectant Treatment
Our sanitizing treatment is a crucial step after removing contaminated insulation. This specialized fogging application kills germs, eliminates odors, and removes allergens before we install new insulation in your Hampton home.

Complete your home’s health upgrade with thorough air duct cleaning that removes years of accumulated dust and contaminants from your heating and cooling system. We use camera inspection technology to ensure every part of your ductwork is properly cleaned.

Why Hampton Homeowners Need Insulation Removal
Waterfront and Historic Area Challenges
Hampton’s position on the Chesapeake Bay and its rich history mean many homes face unique challenges from water proximity and age. Older homes in historic areas often have outdated insulation materials, while waterfront properties face exposure to humidity and salt air that can degrade insulation. Our removal service eliminates compromised materials completely, creating a clean foundation for new, properly rated insulation.
Military Housing and Frequent Turnover
Hampton’s military presence means many homes serve as military housing or rental properties with frequent tenant changes. These properties often need insulation updates to maintain energy efficiency standards between occupants. Our quick, thorough removal service prepares homes for fresh insulation that improves comfort while lowering energy costs for new residents.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How do I know if my historic Phoebus home needs insulation removal?
Look for signs like uneven temperatures between rooms, rising energy bills, musty odors, visible moisture stains, or evidence of pests in your attic or crawl space. Historic Phoebus homes often have outdated insulation materials that may have significantly deteriorated over time, making removal and replacement particularly beneficial.
Will removing old insulation help with the humidity issues in my Buckroe Beach property?
Yes! Many Buckroe Beach homeowners see significant improvement in humidity control after proper insulation removal and replacement. Old, damaged insulation often traps moisture rather than creating an effective barrier. Our removal process eliminates these problem areas, allowing for installation of materials specifically designed for Hampton’s waterfront climate.
How do you protect historical features during insulation removal in Old Hampton?
For historic Old Hampton homes, we take extra precautions when working around period features. Our technicians are trained in preservation awareness and use specialized techniques to access insulation without damaging architectural elements. We carefully seal off work areas and use equipment specifically designed for older home structures.
Is insulation removal covered by insurance for my Fox Hill home after water damage?
Insurance coverage varies by policy, but insulation removal may be covered if the damage resulted from a covered peril like water damage from a burst pipe or roof leak. For Fox Hill homeowners and throughout Hampton, we can provide detailed documentation of damage to support your insurance claim when applicable.
Do you offer any special discounts for military families near Langley Air Force Base?
Yes! As a Hampton Roads business, we’re proud to support our military community with special discounts for active duty, reserve, and retired service members. We also offer flexible scheduling to accommodate military families’ unique needs and our Smart-Pay option to help manage the investment in your home’s efficiency.
How does your process handle the challenges of homes in downtown Hampton's flood zones?
For homes in Hampton’s flood-prone areas, we take special care to assess moisture damage patterns and recommend appropriate solutions. After thorough removal of compromised materials, we often suggest moisture-resistant insulation options and installation techniques designed to perform better in flood-risk areas. We can also coordinate with other contractors for comprehensive water mitigation solutions.
Will new insulation after removal help with the noise from nearby Mercury Boulevard in Coliseum Central?
Absolutely! Many Hampton homeowners in busy areas like Coliseum Central notice significant noise reduction after proper insulation removal and replacement. New, properly installed insulation creates a more effective sound barrier against traffic and urban noise. While not specifically designed for soundproofing, the improved density and coverage of fresh insulation often provides welcome noise reduction benefits.
