Do you know what’s going on up in your attic in your Sacramento home? It’s a simple question, but one that needs attention. Attics fall into two categories: Useable or unusable space. In the unusable category, you basically just have eaves and rafters. This is also where you might find insulation for your home. On the useable side, some attics have become the depository for a family’s history otherwise known as junk or it has become a spare room or workspace. Either way, are you getting the most out of your attic? If not it might be time to do a major attic cleaning with the help of an experienced crew of disposal experts like Junk King Sacramento.Up in the unusable attic space, what’s the status of your insulation? If you’ve been in your home for a while, you might not have given this a second thought. However, with rising fuel costs it’s even more important to make sure your home is as energy efficient as possible. This could mean replacing that old insulation with a new, improved version which can help keep your home warmer in the winter. Replacing insulation might seem like a daunting task, but with the help of that disposal crew, you can be assured that your old insulation will be properly hauled away.
If your attic is not a place you go up into often, you might not know what’s going on in terms of infestation. Like it or not, if your home has termites one of the first spots they could target would be all that healthy rafter wood that is exposed up in your attic. Finding termites early is key to halting them in their tracks. Then there are all kinds of vermin who might like to make your attic their new nest. It’s a good idea to take a trip up to your attic at least once a month to check on the status of things.
As for the “useable” attic space it is for storage or practicality? If you’ve made your attic the dumping ground for all your junk then you should really consider getting rid of it. Holding onto family heirlooms is one thing, but if you’ve put items up there just to move them out of eyesight you’re not making the most of that space. And junk is junk. If you’re never going to use something again then get rid of it. It really wouldn’t take much to turn an attic into a livable space. Even if you have exposed beams, you can still put up some drywall and make a cozy guest room or home office with very little effort.
First, you need to clean out the attic. Instead of making dozens of trips up and down those stairs, let a professional crew of haulers like Junk King Sacramento do all the heavy lifting. You could actually stand at the bottom of the stairs and determine what you want to keep and what you want to throw out as it passes by you. There is no reason why you shouldn’t reclaim your attic today.
