Attic Cleanup and Restoration in Grand Rapids
Getting the animals out is step one. Bats, raccoons and squirrels can leave behind droppings, nesting material, soiled insulation and odor. Call [616 NUMBER] or send the form, and a local professional will call you back about cleanup.
What animals leave behind
- Droppings. Bat guano tends to pile up under a roost.
- Nesting material. Leaves, shredded insulation and debris, especially from squirrels and raccoons.
- Soiled or compressed insulation, which may need to come out and be replaced.
- Odor and staining on wood and drywall.
What cleanup usually involves
- Confirm the animals are out and the entry points are sealed. Cleaning before that just invites the mess back.
- Remove droppings, nesting material and contaminated insulation.
- Clean and deodorize the affected surfaces.
- Replace insulation where it was removed.
Ask the professional what protective equipment and containment they use, and how they dispose of the material they remove.
Do it yourself?
We don't recommend handling an animal-contaminated attic on your own. Ask a professional to assess it, even if you decide to do part of the work yourself.
What attic cleanup costs
It's quoted after inspection. Cost usually depends on the size of the affected area, how much insulation has to be replaced, and how easy the attic is to reach. Ask for cleanup to be quoted separately from removal and sealing, so you can compare.
