Essentially, if your insulation has endured any of these scenarios it may need replacement
Our team specializes in removing rodents from your attic or crawlspace. These animals, including squirrels, mice, raccoons, bats, and possums, can leave behind toxic droppings and urine in the insulation, leading to future rodent attraction and entry. This can cause dangerous and damaging circumstances, including chewing wires, puncturing air ducts, and spreading parasites and diseases. If you're experiencing these issues, a professional should remove the insulation immediately.
It’s very common for water to end up in your attic and damage your insulation. Whether it’s a roof leak, HVAC leak, or leaky pipe this may cause mold, fungus, or mildew growth in your insulation quite rapidly. If you start to notice a black or greyish layer on your insulation, this may be mold breeding in your insulation material and should be replaced by a professional immediately to avoid other expensive repairs to the construction of your home.
One of the most important things to be aware of is proper airflow. If your attic is not correctly vented and relieved of the excessive heat and moisture build-up in your attic, it may cause condensation on your insulation and roof. This can result in similar issues like water damage, causing mold spores to grow and breed in your insulation and break down the life expectancy of your insulated attic.
Hiring an attic insulation service can provide numerous benefits for the overall health and safety of your home or building and can save you money in the long run. Contact Master Attic Today!

Posted on Phillip DiBelloFebruary 10, 2026 Master Attic did a fantastic job cleaning our crawl space & attic, ridding the areas of rodent contamination and entry. The initial visit by Dave provided detailed info identifying the areas of need. Jose's crew arrived on time, started with draping of plastic to protect our walls & floor & removed all the contaminated insulation. All was well done, no mess or clean up. Jose performed all the foundation sealing & rodent blockage the house required. He showed me the points of entry and the solutions applied to each. I would definitely recommend the crew from Master Attic if you have an infestation you want cleared.Posted on John TomasFebruary 8, 2026 Master Attic just completed work in the attic of my 70 year old house. The work included removing all existing degraded insulation, full clean up, air sealing and new insulation. I could not be happier. Outstanding process and service from start to finish. Thank you to Dan Jones and Jose Cardona and the whole crew. The work was carried out diligently, very professionally and with great care for the house. I totally recommend this company.Posted on Edward GaluskaFebruary 1, 2026 Master Attic did a great Job in our Attic & Garage there was a lot of work the Workers were great and very effecient Great Job. Jose and his crew left our house spotless and warmer.Joe our sales contact made the job “no worries” simple and a pleasure to work with. Thank you! Peg and Ed GPosted on Ant ConnorFebruary 1, 2026 Our house was built in 1955, looking at the attic and crawlspace it was time for a cleaning and update! Our estimator was on point, David and his team arrived and took care of the project professionally and efficiently. This has been something I wanted to do for 10 years. It was hard to find a crew for this dirty job and am very happy Master Attic was available to help my home.Posted on Gina 217January 31, 2026 We originally called Master Attic because we had a flood that went from our kitchen into our crawl space, and we are so glad that we did! Danny was our first point of contact with Master Attic, and it was such a great experience! He came to our home, assessed the situation, and explained what needed to be done and the materials that would be used. We’ve also had a moisture issue with our attic so we had Danny look at that too. He told us exactly what the issues were and what they would do to fix them. We finally had a “diagnosis,” which we weren’t able to get from other people who looked at it. Next came Roberto, the foreman, and his crew, who were amazing! They were courteous, meticulous about cleanliness and safety, and the most hardworking group of men I’ve ever had work at my house. Roberto explained what they were going to be doing and then he and his crew delivered high-quality workmanship. My husband couldn’t believe the difference when he saw the crawlspace and attic! We were able to get on the schedule right away, and were shocked they were able to do this in the weather we were having! Added bonus? They emptied my attic, with its 24 year accumulation of stuff, giving me the opportunity to get rid of things I no longer wanted, while they worked. Even though they had to carry everything down to my first floor, they were like a well oiled machine and had my attic emptied in no time. The same with putting everything back. Added added bonus? They took what I discarded with them! We cannot recommend Master Attic enough. They turned what was an incredibly stressful situation into something super easy. Thank you to everyone involved in our two projects! You’re the best!Posted on G SnyderJanuary 29, 2026 Thank you for the great service! Dan got me an appointment to install the insulation in a very timely manner. David was in charge and informed me every step of the way. So glad I had this done before the “big freeze” that we’ve been having the last few weeks! All the old insulation was removed before placing down my new batting.Posted on Dean SonnenbergJanuary 8, 2026 I could not have asked for a better Experience with our Attic Insulation and Attic Fan Installation! Joe and Nick went the extra mile to make sure everything was to our exact specifications and David did a phenomenal job with his Team on the day of Installation. By far, an exceptional job that we are very pleased with and we would highly recommend Master Attic!!Posted on Jackie CJanuary 3, 2026 Great experience having Master Attic in to clean, sanitize, and moisture barrier our crawlspace and install new insulation. From our first phone call with Casey, she was so helpful and kept in great communication. Danny was excellent to work with, he checked every inch of the space and knew exactly what needed to be done to resolve the issues. Again great communication. More importantly he was honest and fair. Finally we found the right people who we could trust. They also honor discounts for seniors and veterans. Roberto and his wonderful crew worked in the freezing cold and got everything done in a few hours. He showed us pictures of what they did and it looked amazing. Plus, Roberto alerted us to a suspected gas leak from a worn hose. Can’t thank him enough for that. He was right! NJNG turned off the gas immediately until it was repaired. Our plumber who replaced the gas line said whoever did the work in the crawl space did an excellent job! We agree.Posted on Linda DeJureDecember 30, 2025 They did a wonderful job at a fair price. Dan explained everything in detail that they would do to clean,seal and reinsulate our home’s crawl space. I couldn’t believe that they could accomplish all of it in one day. But with Roberto as the on site supervisor of a great team, everything was executed carefully and with precision in less than a day and with minimal disruption to our home. They were wonderful to work with. I would not hesitate to engage them again.Posted on Salvatore CinquemaniDecember 29, 2025 Honest, reliable and fair price. They do great work. From start to finish.

At Master Attic, our experienced technicians use state-of-the-art equipment to carefully remove old insulation, minimizing disruption to your home and ensuring all debris and contaminants are safely removed.
