A dirty attic is often the “scariest” room of the house, and cleaning it can be a daunting chore that you would rather avoid. Yet, if you’re planning on insulating your attic in your Los Angeles home, it makes sense to have it cleaned at the same time. And if you’re looking at renovating your attic and turning it into a bedroom or other “usable living space,” cleaning it is the first step you must take before anything else can get started.
BEFORE
AFTER
There are many benefits to cleaning and “cleansing” your attic. It goes well beyond just removing some unnecessary clutter and, perhaps, dusting the rafters a bit.
The main benefits you will receive from a professional attic cleaning include the following:
Elimination of dust, dirt, and unhealthy toxins will improve attic air quality, and that can improve the air through you whole home since attic air can seep down through the ceiling. If your HVAC unit is located in the attic, it is even more critical to keep a healthy “atmosphere” up there.
Mold and mildew growing on your rafters or other parts of your building’s frame can be destroyed. Untreated, molds can give off spores that can cause allergic reactions or even respiratory problems if inhaled.
Rodents, bats, insects, spiders, and other pests hiding in your attic can be discovered and exterminated. Plus, droppings, urine stains, dead bugs/animals, and debris used by rodents as cover can all be removed.
Cracks, holes, and all air leak or rodent/animal entry points can be exposed to view. This gives you the opportunity of sealing them. We at Pure Eco also offer air sealing services and can perform them immediately after attic cleaning and/or immediately before insulating and ventilating your attic.
In many cases, insulation already in your attic may be under-performing due to dirt, dust, or moisture accumulation. We can find any such problems and solve them.
If there is a lot of old “stuff” in your attic that you don’t want to keep, we can remove it for you as part of the attic cleaning task.
Attic cleaning, even for relatively small attics, can be a big job. It is tedious, dirty, and time consuming. We at Pure Eco can handle it for you, saving you time and effort.
At Pure Eco, we have deep experience in every aspect and step of attic cleaning in Los Angeles, Ca, and we approach each attic-cleaning job systematically from beginning to end.
We can give you a quick quote over the phone, but it may take an on-site attic inspection to get the full picture of what kind of work will be involved in the cleaning process. At that point, we can give you a very tight estimate.
After we have inspected and assessed your attic, and you give us the go ahead, we will schedule the first available date, that is convenient for you, to commence the cleaning.
Our professional staff has a strong work ethic and a dedication to excellence in all we do. We will arrive during normal work hours, work diligently to job’s completion, communicate with you along the way as needed, and leave your attic looking so good you may not even recognize it.
Here are some specific aspects of attic cleaning service in LA that we will tackle, as needed, as part of the total process:
We can move out any junk or debris that is cluttering up your attic (and our work area). Doing this first will speed up everything else that follows. You may want to remove some items stored in your attic before we begin, but we can move out any trash and dispose of it.
We will use a professional grade vacuum cleaner to remove excessive dust build-up, cob webs, animal droppings, and miscellaneous small debris. Ordinary vacuums will not do the same job, so a DIY attic cleaning won't be as effective or will require you buy/rent expensive equipment.
We will check your rafters for mold, mildew, or major stains, and clean all problem spots thoroughly. Badly rotted wood that is covered in mold will need to be removed. In extreme cases, you may need some wood replaced or sistered together.
We can also de-dust the surface of batts insulation and inspect to see if any insulation has suffered moisture damage and needs to be replaced.
We will probe as we clean, keeping an eye out for any cracks, holes, or other air leakage points. Air sealing is a separate service, but we can do it in conjunction with attic cleaning if you desire. But having your attic cleaned will at minimum make it more obvious where any air leaks are located.
As we clean, we will note signs of infestations by rodents, insects, and other pests. We can also look for entry points in your attic's walls or ceiling where rodents may be getting in. Rodent-proofing, again, is a separate service, but we can do it simultaneously with attic cleaning. We can also set up traps and spray to kill pests, or you can tackle that the DIY route, whichever you prefer.

At job’s end, there will likely be bags of debris and other trash that has come out of your attic. We will dispose of it for you at the local dump. You don’t have to worry about it.
During the course of our attic cleaning in your LA home, we may discover problems we can alert you to. For example, if your existing attic floor insulation is asbestos-containing vermiculite, you should be aware of that fact. (And we can remove it for you upon request and replace it with newer, safer, high-efficiency insulation.)
Or, it might become clear that your attic has numerous air leaks thought ought to be sealed; has some large gaps or weak points where animals are getting in or could get in; has damaged insulation that is no longer effective; or that there are damaged pipes, air ducts, vents, wires, or light fixtures. We can fix any and all of the above and more upon request.

About a quarter of all rodent infestations in the home involve mice or rats getting in through the attic. And once in the attic, rodents will take any opportunity they can find to spread to the rest of your house below, where there is far more food and water and a more comfortable living environment.
Rodent infestations are serious business. Rodents can cause structural damage to your home, chew through pipes and wiring, leave disease-ridden feces and urine in trails throughout your house, and get into your food supplies and ruin them. (Scaring you as they scurry about at night or make weird noises doesn’t even make the list of their most major offenses!)
Also note that mouse or rat droppings can contaminate insulation and leave deep stains in your attic’s wood framing. Plus, the droppings will infect the attic air, causing an unpleasant odor to spread and threatening a health hazard.
Thus, it is worthwhile to do everything possible to eliminate rodents and their accompaniments from your attic and to prevent a re-infestation.
By having your attic professionally cleaned, you can eliminate most of the sources of irritants and contaminants in your attic air. That, in turn, will have a positive impact on the air “below,” especially if your HVAC system is located in your attic.
It is possible to use high-power disinfectants on your attic’s surfaces that will kill as much as 99% of the bacteria and viruses in your attic. And eliminating a mold/mildew problem eliminates the source of mold spores that can cause allergic reactions and health problems. The elderly, children, and those with allergies or respiratory problems are especially at risk.
You might think that musty, smelly, contaminated air in your attic is not too important to worry about since no one lives up there. But in reality, attic air will seep down through the ceilings and access hatch, get into your HVAC system and circulate, and ultimately affect the quality of air you and your family breathe in every day.
Pure Eco can wipe out mold, de-dust, vacuum with a high-efficiency vacuum cleaner that will remove even tiny dust particles, clean up all rodent droppings, and kill off insects and other pests we come across. The overall effect is to purify attic air and prevent your attic from contaminating the air in the rest of your house.
Of course, we can simply clean your attic thoroughly and leave it at that. But if your attic has no insulation or poor insulation or if it is filled with numerous air leaks, you are losing money every day. As a thorough “deep” attic cleaning is a good first step to upgrading your attic, it only makes sense to “finish the job” by doing full attic rodent-proofing, air sealing, and insulation work (whatever is necessary) all at the same time.
By sealing air leaks, installing sufficient attic insulation, installing new vents/fans, and perhaps even installing a radiant barrier on the attic ceiling, you will greatly increase your energy efficiency, save money, help the environment, and make your attic a much more pleasant room to visit, when you have a reason to.
After we have fully cleaned your attic, and completed any other desired services, you will likely want to re-organize your possessions stored in your “new” attic.
A few tips may help. Don’t store anything “temperature sensitive” in an attic without temperature control. Never cover up vents with boxes or stored items. Keep everything neatly stacked along the edges, if possible, to give yourself plenty of free walking space. And label items and store like items together.

At Pure Eco, we are familiar with many government sponsored rebate and incentive programs, one or more of which may apply to your energy efficiency upgrade.
To help lower our “collective carbon footprint,” California and local counties and cities often invest in making homeowners’ attics and ceilings more energy efficient and “earth friendly,” just like you do!
There may be federal tax credits that apply when you “weatherize” your home as well, though many of these programs expired in 2011. We can check to see if any still apply, but your best bet is state and local incentives.
You can check for energy efficiency incentives state by state by clicking this energy.gov link and running a search on California. Or, you can check this SoCal link to search for possible rebates and incentives that may apply to your project.
However, you can just ask our staff at Pure Eco, and given your project’s parameters, we can find out which government programs you would qualify for.
At Pure Eco, we can find ways to save you money upfront and month to month by boosting your energy efficiency and lowering your heating and cooling bills. We can assess your project quickly and give you an accurate, upfront estimate and schedule your project start date at the soonest possible date that is convenient to you.
A professional attic cleaning service in LA typically starts with a thorough inspection of your attic to assess the extent of cleaning required and identify any underlying issues, such as pest infestation, water damage, or mold growth.
The next step concerns the removal of debris and contaminants. We will remove dust, dirt, debris, and any contaminated or damaged insulation materials from your attic. We will also look for signs of pest infestation. If any are found, we may recommend and perform pest control measures to eliminate the problem and prevent future infestations.
Next comes sanitization. We will sanitize the attic using specialized cleaning agents and equipment to remove any remaining contaminants, mold, and mildew.
In addition, we will inspect and replace your insulation, if necessary. Specifically, we will evaluate your existing insulation and recommend upgrading or replacing it to improve your home’s energy efficiency.
Finally, we will check your ventilation. Proper attic ventilation is crucial to prevent moisture issues and maintain a healthy indoor environment. We will inspect and recommend improvements to your attic’s ventilation system.
The frequency of attic cleaning depends on various factors, such as the age of your home, the type of insulation, and the presence of pests or moisture issues. As a general guideline, it’s a good idea to have your attic cleaned and inspected every 3 to 5 years. However, if you notice signs of infestation, mold growth, or other problems, you should address them immediately by contacting a professional attic cleaning service like Pure Eco Inc.
While it’s certainly possible to clean your attic yourself, hiring a professional attic cleaning company offers several advantages:
Considering these benefits, we generally recommend that you hire a professional attic cleaning service in Los Angeles to ensure the best results for your home.
