The homeowner call because he had raccoons under his 4 season room that tore all the insulation foam board and fiberglass out. Our solution was to remove the foam board insulation and the fiberglass batt insulation and dispose of it, then we disinfect the area, and install foam board insulation with a radiant barrier on either side and finish it off with Air Sealing all of the gaps.
Mold was discovered in this attic due to improper ventilation after having us out to do a insulation proposal. Ducts for bath fans were blowing into attic and not out the roof. Also soffits were blocked from previous install of fiberglass insulation. Our company remediated using RMR-86 and RMR-141 to remove the staining and mold and added all new baffles after removing the debris from soffit vents. We topped off insulation with TruSoft Cellulose blown in to a R-60.
