Vermiculite Removal

Vermiculite insulation is commonly found in attics of homes and buildings constructed before the 1990s. While vermiculite itself is not always hazardous, some vermiculite products may contain asbestos. Because it is impossible to visually confirm whether vermiculite contains asbestos, it should always be treated as a potential health risk.

Our vermiculite removal services may include:

  • Assessment of attic or affected areas

  • Controlled access and containment to prevent fiber release

  • Safe removal and bagging of insulation

  • Proper transportation and disposal at approved facilities

  • Guidance on next steps, including re-insulation options

At McKay Environmental and Construction Services Inc., we specialize in the safe and controlled removal of vermiculite insulation. Our process focuses on minimizing disturbance, containing affected areas, and ensuring materials are handled and disposed of properly in accordance with regulations.

Vermiculite removal is often required prior to renovations, attic upgrades, or energy-efficiency improvements. In many cases, these projects can be completed efficiently, making vermiculite removal suitable even for properties located farther within our service area.

Asbestos should only be handled by a trained professionals due to the severity exposure can cause. Asbestos can cause breathing or respiratory problems as well as Cancer and Mesothelioma.
