The cost of removing vermiculite loft insulation in can vary depending on several factors such as:
1. Size of the Attic Space
The larger the attic area, the higher the removal costs. This is due to the increased time, labor, and resources required to remove the vermiculite safely. The cost typically scales with the square footage of the space.
2. Asbestos Contamination
If the vermiculite is confirmed to contain asbestos, the removal process becomes more complex and costly. Asbestos removal requires specialized equipment, additional safety protocols, and proper disposal in line with hazardous waste regulations. Testing for asbestos contamination is an initial step and may incur additional costs.
3. Accessibility
The ease of access to your attic can impact the overall price. If your attic is difficult to reach or has tight spaces, it may take more time and effort to remove, leading to higher labor costs.
4. Disposal Fees
Vermiculite that contains asbestos must be disposed of in accordance with strict regulations. Licensed disposal facilities charge fees for handling hazardous materials, which will be factored into the overall cost of the removal service.

Chris and the team were with us today and did a great job under difficult circumstances. The roof had truss beams which made access very difficult. On top of that, it was a much larger area than they had expected and the insulation was much thicker. Yet despite all this they stayed cheerful and positive and worked away until the job was done. Thank you team Chris.
