An Englewood attic cleanup starts with what is actually on the floor: old insulation flattened under years of storage, droppings and nesting debris left by wildlife, and the contamination that builds up once nobody has opened the hatch in a while. Old boxes, discarded building material and whatever a previous owner left behind get cleared away before any of the insulation or wildlife mess underneath gets addressed. We start by clearing a path and assessing what is actually there before anything gets removed.
Once the space is cleared, we contain the hatch opening and the route through the house so nothing drifts into rooms below while we work. The attic floor gets cleaned section by section, and if the insulation itself is damaged or has been nested in, it comes out at the same time rather than being cleaned around. A sanitizing pass finishes the job wherever the attic has held wildlife or standing moisture.
What is left afterward is a clear, sanitized attic, whether it stays open storage or becomes the base for new insulation. Every cleanup gets a free written estimate first, covering what we found during the walk-through, what needs to come out, and whether the job stops at cleaning or moves on to insulation and sealing while the attic is already open.
Six services that often follow a cleanup here, each starting with the same free inspection.
The four conditions behind most attic cleanup calls in Englewood.
Cleanup crews usually find the evidence before a homeowner ever hears anything overhead: shredded insulation balled into a nest tucked behind stored boxes, droppings scattered across the floor, and gnawed cardboard where mice or squirrels have been working undisturbed. Englewood's older wards give wildlife an easy path onto the roof, and once they are in, the attic becomes storage for them too.
Stored boxes and holiday bins get stacked directly onto the insulation in plenty of Englewood attics, flattening it in patches long before anyone notices the room above running colder in winter. Cleanup means moving everything out first, so the flattened sections are as visible as the ones still doing their job.
A slow roof leak or a poorly vented dryer can leave moisture trapped under a stack of stored boxes for years in an Englewood attic, staining both the insulation and the framing long before anyone opens the hatch to check. Cleanup is often the first time that kind of damage actually gets noticed.
Downtown attics tucked under balloon-framed rooflines and East Hill knee-wall spaces give a crew far less room to swing boxes and bagged debris than a wide-open Liberty Road attic offers, so every cleanup gets walked and measured before we ever quote a number.
Better insulation. Sealed gaps. Cleaner air. Lower bills.

Master Attic did a phenomenal job with our attic insulation and duct replacement. We had a loss from smoke damage from a neighboring fire and we were met with compassion and excellent customer service from Danny Jones and Jorge Diaz. We chose them for their quality of work, expertise and fair pricing and they got the job done promptly. Thank you for the excellent work and we will be recommending you highly!
We just had our attic insulation replaced, and the entire experience was pleasant from start to finish. Robert is knowledgeable, honest and easy to work with at the initial estimate period. Roberta and his crew did a great job replacing the attic insulation for our house. They were very professional, efficient and respectful. They did everything that needed to be done and left the space clean and in excellent condition. I am very happy that I chose Master Attic and would highly recommend them.
Dan Jones and the Ronald crew did a great job from start to finish! I had original insulation in my attic with no electricity, not an easy job. Our upstairs was very hot in the summer and cold in winter. With having central air, we still needed AC units and space heaters to manage. Dan set up a great plan to eliminate that. He and his crew were able to come and finish the job shortly after we first met. They were quick, clean and managed to crawl into small spaces to remove old insulation and install fresh insulation. We have already noticed a major difference! Highly recommended!!
We hired Master Attic to clean out debris, mice, old insulation, and replace with new insulation in both our attic spaces. Roberto and his crew did a phenomenal job. They were extremely professional, polite, and did a fantastic job. They invited my husband to see the attic after each step, and took pictures on their phone to show me since I could not get up in the attic. They took the time to protect the space with plastic sheeting before the job up in the attic, and then cleaned up everything perfectly afterwards. I highly recommend them!
Great job by the team. Cleaned out the entire attic and replaced all the old insulation with new fresh insulation. Made a huge difference. Alex was great to work with and was very professional. Would highly recommend.
Awesome experience from start to finish. Rob provided a great assessment and capabilities overview, arrived on time and was very generous and thorough in explaining the work. I signed on the spot. A crew of six arrived (again, on time) and completely transformed our attic space - thoroughly cleaned out the old insulation (looked spotless afterwards), sanitized the space, sealed it/rodent proofed it, added baffles and of course, replaced the insulation and added more in areas that needed it. Completed the whole job in half a day and we are delighted with the result. Thank you, Master Attic team, for a job very well done! Highest recommendation.
What a great experience I had with this company and its employees. It started with initially interacting with Joe who came out for the estimate. He was funny because he came down from my attic and said "have you seen up there". I laughed because I had and I knew it was bad. He was no pressure and no nonsense. Gave me an estimate and said if I wanted we could have the work done next day. I wasn't ready for that but after some schedule juggling I told him we could be ready. Joe had his guys out next morning with the best part being Jorge calling me to advise he was about thirty minutes out. I appreciate when I am given a heads up as to ETA. Three of them arrived Jorge set out plastic and covered exposed furniture. Jorge, Angel and Gonzalo were all polite and worked hard to complete the task. They worked efficiently and were done quickly. Jorge made sure he included me in each step of the process and when I saw the finished product I was amazed. I can actually use my attic for storage if I choose to do so. I did not realize when they were here that they also do work on crawlspace areas. I will be calling them back to see what they can do for my crawlspace which easily rivals the diasaster called my attic. I recommend at least giving this company and its employees an opportunity to help you.
Great company to work with. From beginning to end, Dan came out, spent plenty of time with me going over everything that needed to be done, and the process of everything that needed to be updated it both attics. His professionalism was top notch, answered all my question and concerns. When it came time for George and his six-man crew to do the work their quality of workmanship was well above average, they were here the whole day, and I don't think they even had a lunch break (hopefully I don't get him in trouble). They all worked and everyone knew what their job was, they removed all the insulation, cleaned, spray foamed all holes and top plates, re-insulated both attics and cleaned up like they weren't even here. Will definitely use them again.
Master Attic remediated a bat issue for us back in October and I can’t say enough about what a wonderful job they did. The work was guaranteed and they encouraged us to call if we say any further evidence of bats. Well, there were a few droppings in the attic and they quickly responded to our concerns. Jose’s crew came out on a SUNDAY, inspected the attic, and sealed up several spots that could be entry points. They were professional, efficient, and kind. I would highly recommend them. You will not be disappointed.
The crew pulls out stored items, debris and whatever wildlife has left behind, seals off the path through the house so dust stays contained, and works the attic floor clean in sections. Damaged or contaminated insulation comes out while the crew is already there, and a sanitizing pass wraps things up before the job is called finished.
It depends mostly on how much has accumulated and how much wildlife or moisture has been involved. A lightly used Liberty Road attic clears out fast, while a downtown attic holding decades of storage or a squirrel problem takes longer to work through safely. The written estimate covers the real schedule once we have actually seen the space.
Cleanup by itself usually falls outside what gets funded, but when the visit turns into insulation removal and a new install, PSE&G and New Jersey's statewide efficiency rebates have picked up part of that cost before. Ask what is currently on offer during your inspection and we will walk you through it.
Yes, especially if it has been years since anyone looked closely. Stored items hide moisture damage and wildlife activity that gets worse the longer it sits, and a musty or ammonia-like smell reaching the rooms below usually means the attic needs attention regardless of whether you plan to use it for anything else.
Anything intact and dry that you want to keep gets set aside and returned once the floor is clean. Damaged boxes, old building material, and insulation that has been nested in or soaked through get removed and disposed of properly. If there is ever a question, we walk through it with you before anything leaves the attic.
The cleanup itself removes the mess, but closing the opening is a separate step we handle as rodent proofing, usually a gap at the soffit or roofline on an older Englewood house. We point it out during the inspection either way, since a clean attic with the entry point still open just sets up the next visit.
Cliffside Park and Englewood Cliffs are practically next door, and Bergenfield, Tenafly, Teaneck and Leonia are all part of the same regular route for our crews. Since Bergen County is where we spend most weeks anyway, fitting in a cleanup rarely takes long to schedule.
We work around what you want kept, moving boxes and bins aside rather than through them, and set up containment so the process does not track dust or debris into the rest of the house. Anything that turns out damaged or contaminated gets pointed out to you before it is removed, not decided on our own.
Free inspection and a written estimate, no obligation.
