Insulation that has been used as bedding, walked over repeatedly or soiled by droppings stops doing its job properly, even once the surrounding mess has been cleared away. Damaged insulation removal in Hendra deals with the sections too far gone to simply clean, taking them out rather than leaving a gap in coverage across the ceiling.
The crew checks the condition of insulation across the whole affected part of the roof space, not just the spot where the nest was, since flattened or torn batts often extend further than the visible mess suggests. Sections still in reasonable shape are left in place, while anything soiled, torn apart or badly flattened is taken out. A ceiling that feels noticeably colder or warmer in one area than the rest of the house is sometimes the first sign that insulation nearby has been affected. Homes with older insulation types sometimes need a full section replaced rather than a partial patch, and the crew will explain why if that is the case.
This work in Hendra is usually booked once waste removal and any deodorising have already been finished, so nothing new goes into a roof space that still needs attention elsewhere. The crew will walk you through what needs taking out and what can stay before anything is booked, and will point out any other areas worth watching going forward. Offcuts and packaging are kept out of the roof space once the job is done, leaving things as tidy as they were found.
