Diversifying Your Income: Starting an Insulation Removal Company
My daughter, Jenna, is a successful realtor in Coastal Alabama. She grew up in the insulation industry. She would work with me, sometimes, when she was a young girl. Her knowledge of buildings and how they are constructed helps her when selling homes. Now, she has put together a company to remove insulation.
Jenna stumbled upon the Cool Machine brand! 😆 She grew up with me selling machines, delivering machines and training people on how to use the machines. So, starting her own extraction business came naturally.
She is using the VacTrailer that we put together this past summer. The CoolVac37 has the power to extract batts and provides great suction to go distances that the smaller machines cannot. Everything goes straight into the dump trailer. This system keeps her efficient. Jobs are done quickly and disposal is easy.
Some spray foam contractors are using her to do insulation removals because they would rather follow her up with installations. Through her real estate contacts, she is able to get jobs to remove damaged insulation from attics and crawl spaces.
Recently, we were with her on a job for Fort Morgan Fire Department. They had nearly 3,000 sq feet of soiled fiberglass batts above suspended ceiling. It only took a few hours to remove the insulation and to replace ceiling tiles that were old and destroyed.
Attic Queen in Oldsmar, Florida is well-known for starting an extraction company and has done well with it. Jenna has had opportunity to work alongside her and they support each other in this industry. We really appreciate Jessica’s support. If you ever see them together, wear sunglasses…. Attic Queen is sporting Neon Green and Jenna is decked out in Hot Pink!
