INSULATION REMOVAL

Serving the Greater St. Louis Area with a building science approach to improve comfort, efficiency, and long-term home performance

If your attic insulation is old, damaged, or contaminated, it may be doing more harm than good.

Over time, insulation can settle, lose effectiveness, trap moisture, or become contaminated by dust, debris, or pests. When this happens, your home can experience reduced comfort, poor air quality, and increased energy costs.

At Boyer Insulation, we safely remove old insulation to give your home a clean slate—so it can be properly air sealed and re-insulated for long-term performance.

 

WHEN INSULATION REMOVAL IS NEEDED

Not all insulation needs to be removed—but in certain situations, it’s the best solution.

You may need insulation removal if:
→ Insulation is heavily settled or no longer effective
→ There is evidence of pests or contamination
→ The attic has excessive dust or debris buildup
→ Moisture or mold issues are present
→ You want to properly air seal before upgrading insulation


Removing old insulation allows underlying issues to be addressed correctly.

Removal + Air Sealing + Insulation

Insulation removal is often just the first step. For best results, we typically recommend:

1. Inulation Removal
2. Air sealing the attic
3. Installing new insulation to proper levels

This ensures your home performs the way it should—not just temporarily, but long-term.

OUR PROCESS

At Boyer Insulation, we don’t guess — we measure. Our building-science approach ensures you get real results, not just more insulation tossed into your attic. Here’s how our full diagnostic process delivers maximum comfort, efficiency, and value:

Step 1 — Comprehensive Energy Audit (Before Work Begins)

Every project starts with a full home energy audit — the same level of evaluation used in professional home performance programs.
We use advanced diagnostic tools such as the Minneapolis blower door to measure your home’s air leakage, pinpoint comfort issues, and identify exactly where energy is being lost.
This gives you a baseline of your home’s current performance and ensures the solutions we recommend are based on real data.
