How To Work Safely In Your Attic
Here at Bio-One of Alabama, we are constantly performing jobs in customers' attics. Many of the jobs we perform in attics include:
- Mold remediation
- Rodent droppings cleanup
- Insulation removal
- Odor removal
- Asbestos abatement
Unfortunately, many attics are "built to be comfortable" for the average person to move around in, and because of that, navigating an attic can be very dangerous.
Shockingly, most workers will just "tip-toe on the joists" or even bring up cumbersome, large pieces of plywood to lay down over the joists. Neither of these solutions are 100% safe, and neither of them are convenient.
One of the things Bio-One has discovered, which allows us to navigate attics safely, is the AtticBoard.
The AtticBoard is a movable, lightweight, attic walkboard and attic safety platform, specifically designed for attic workers and DIY homeowners alike. We have used AtticBoard for quite some time, but looking more into it, we have learned the following about this wonderful safety product. It is:
- Made of our 100% recycled materials
- Made in the USA
- Designed to hold 700 pounds
- Designed to withstand extreme heat and cold
- Has four convenient handholds
- Can be moved around easily, and you can bring up multiple AtticBoards to construct a catwalk
We are actually shocked that we used to navigate attics without this product in the past.
Rest assured, when Bio-One comes to your home to perform attic work, our workers will be working safely in your attic with the AtticBoard.
If you need any cleanup services in you attic, please call Bio-One of Alabama at 205-937-1708. With three offices in Huntsville, Birmingham and Montgomery, we serve all of Alabama!
