Roof Cleaning

Updating old insulation is a smart investment. Old insulation can lose its effectiveness over time. It can also become home to contaminants like moisture, mould, insects and rodents. Old insulation may also not meet the latest building codes and energy rating requirements.

When it comes to removing and replacing insulation, you need an experienced team you can trust. At ACT Roofing, we provide expert insulation removal across ACT. We can remove old batts, blow-in, loose fill or any other type of insulation.
 

Insulation is made to last a long time; however, occasionally it may need to be replaced.

Reflective insulation can become torn and lose its efficiency, as the barrier is broken. On the other hand, bulk insulation can compress and lose its ability to absorb heat. If you’ve recently moved into an older home, you may also want to think about replacing the insulation to ensure you are getting the best thermal protection during the colder months. So, how much does it cost to replace insulation? Let’s break it down.

To replace insulation in an existing home, access is needed to remove the pre-existing insulation or to clean the space before the new insulation is installed. There are two areas of a home that can be replaced; the roof and the underfloor. Both areas need to be cleaned thoroughly before the insulation can be replaced. You may choose to do this yourself, but we recommend a professional. A professional insulation remover will remove any old insulation and make sure the area is safe to install new insulation. The cost of this varies depending on the size of the home and the area that is being removed.
