Insulation Replacement & Restoration in Portland
Damaged insulation out, new insulation and vapor barrier in, so your attic or crawlspace works like it should again.
Rodents and squirrels flatten, tunnel through and soil insulation. Damaged insulation stops doing its job, and contaminated insulation leaves odors, droppings and urine behind.
We remove the damaged material, bio-sanitize the surfaces, and install new insulation and vapor barriers in attics and crawlspaces.

Fresh insulation is installed, and in crawlspaces a new vapor barrier.
Signs you need this
- Flattened, stained or tunneled insulation
- A lingering smell from the attic or under the floor
- Torn or missing crawlspace vapor barrier
- Droppings mixed into the insulation
Clean first, then insulate
New insulation over contaminated surfaces just buries the problem. Urine and pheromone trails stay in the framing and old material and keep attracting rodents and squirrels.
We remove what is contaminated, sanitize and deodorize the space, then install fresh insulation and vapor barrier so the space is clean and performing again.
Common questions
Why sanitize before installing new insulation?
Droppings, urine and scent trails left in the space can attract pests back and cause lingering odors. Sanitizing first means the new insulation goes into a clean space.
What is the stack effect, and how does insulation help?
Warm air rises and escapes through the upper house, pulling air in from low areas like the crawlspace. Gaps and damaged insulation make that exchange stronger and carry contaminants from the attic or crawlspace into your living space. Sealing, sanitizing and replacing insulation and vapor barrier helps reduce that airflow.
Can you replace insulation without doing pest work?
Replacing insulation before the entry points are sealed invites the problem back. Our inspection covers both.
Is the inspection really free?
Yes, completely free, with no obligation. We check how much insulation is damaged or contaminated, look for entry points, and show you what needs to be removed, sanitized and replaced. Request a free inspection and we will respond within 15 minutes during regular business hours, or take $20 off your service.
Why is cleanup important before new insulation goes in?
Urine, droppings and pheromone trails left behind signal to rodents and squirrels that the space is a good place to nest. New insulation over a contaminated space traps odor and invites the problem back. Cleaning and deodorizing first protects your investment.
