The client, located in Skokie, contacted Green Attic Insulation seeking assistance with their attic insulation. Concerned about the presence of vermiculite insulation due to potential asbestos contamination, they sought professional inspection and advice.
Location: Skokie, IL 60077
Upon arrival at the client's property, our team conducted a thorough inspection of the attic space. Vermiculite insulation, commonly used in older homes, was suspected due to its prevalence in the area. Given the health risks associated with asbestos exposure, prompt testing and proper handling were essential.
With the vermiculite insulation cleared of asbestos concerns, we collaborated with the client to determine the best insulation solution for their needs.
Considering factors such as energy efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and environmental impact, we recommended cellulose insulation as an optimal choice.
We collected samples from several spots in the attic and sent them to an independent laboratory. The results came back negative for asbestos, so the attic could be cleared and re-insulated. Had the lab report called for abatement, we would have referred the client to a specialized abatement company, since Green Attic is not an asbestos abatement contractor. Our vermiculite attic insulation removal is done under containment with HEPA equipment and starts with this kind of independent testing.
