Roofers Left Debris In Attic

Yep wayne had a look at my attic yesterday and the new roof and gutter downspout system.

Roofers left debris in attic.

Part of the job is cleaning up the mess and a good roofer will take care to lay down tarps have a dumpster on site to remove debris quickly and efficiently as the job progresses. The reason it will be so noisy is because the roofers will use brooms wheelbarrows shovels and tools to get the substrate clean enough to install a new roof. After all there 39 s only so much debris i can throw out in the weekly pickup. You should get a home performance contractor to perform a duct blaster test to test the tightness of your ductwork.

It is normal on a total resheet or when plywood is replaced for debris to drop into the attic. No reason to have it removed unless it prevents from the insulation being installed properly. It s common for debris to land in the attic or on the ground around your home. No need to have the debris removed.

It s not harming anything. Contractors should clean this debris up before leaving the site but as you probably know they oftentimes leave a mess behind for the homeowner to handle. Remember the space under your roof is vented to outside air. Asphalt dust is definitely an irritant and could be causing the symptoms you are describing.

I 39 m determined to clean up the attic reasonably thoroughly probably over a period of time. A lesser known fire hazard that s left behind after a roofing job is moisture. It s certainly possible that your attic ductwork is leaky and that the return ductwork in the attic is sucking in asphalt dust.
