Loft Clean Out Hampshire
Loft Clean Out Services in Hampshire
A loft clean out removes decades of accumulated dust, debris, and contamination from your roof space. Our professional team extracts old insulation, treats pest infestations, and prepares your loft for new work so you know exactly what to expect from the loft cleaning process, including typical costs and how a professional loft clearance team operates.
What is included in our professional loft clean out service?
Our professional loft clean out service covers every step needed to restore your space to a clean, usable condition – using industrial vacuum systems, protective equipment, and licensed waste removal for a hassle-free experience.
Initial Assessment
We begin your loft hygiene service with a thorough assessment of existing contamination levels, identifying dust, debris, pests, or damaged materials so we understand exactly what your space needs.
Debris and Material Removal
Our team then removes loose debris, old storage items, and any damaged materials using industrial vacuum systems and protective equipment to ensure safe, efficient extraction.
Surface Vacuuming
We thoroughly vacuum all accessible surfaces to extract fine particles embedded in timber and insulation, leaving no dust or contamination behind.
Waste Handling
All extracted materials are placed into sealed bags and taken to licensed carriers for responsible disposal, with full waste transfer documentation provided for your records.
Space Preparation
Your roof space is now fully restored to a clean, usable condition – ready for loft boarding, insulation upgrades, or safe storage use with no further prep required.
How long does a loft clean out take?
Most residential lofts we attend require between 3 and 6 hours for a complete clean. Loft preparation and insulation work can add time when existing materials need careful extraction. As a guide, a typical 50-square-metre space with moderate contamination takes around 4 hours. Old loft insulation removal can extend this timeline, particularly with mineral wool that has compacted over many years, and homes with rodent droppings or heavy contamination need additional decontamination steps. We always provide an accurate time estimate after our initial inspection.
How much does a loft clean out cost?
Loft clearance cost depends on your loft size, contamination level, and how easy it is to access. As a general guide, standard cleaning for a 40-square-metre loft starts around £650. Straightforward loft vacuum cleaning with basic debris removal usually sits at the lower end, while loft timber cleaning combined with decontamination treatment pushes costs higher. More complex jobs that require scaffolding or specialist access equipment will increase the total. We will always provide you with a clear, itemised quote so you can compare scope and pricing properly.

Is the waste from a loft clean out disposed of responsibly?
We clear out loft waste through licensed waste disposal operators only. All materials are taken to registered transfer stations for sorting and appropriate processing in line with regulations. Loft cleaning generates mixed waste streams including mineral fibres, timber fragments, and general debris, so our attic clean out teams segregate recyclable materials from items requiring specialist disposal. We can provide waste transfer documentation confirming compliant handling of all removed materials for your records if needed.

Frequently asked questions
Take a look at the Frequently Asked Questions regarding our Loft Clean Out service.
Will a loft clean out disturb my home's existing insulation or structure?
Our teams work carefully to preserve sound materials during any loft insulation removal of damaged sections. We identify which areas genuinely need extraction and which can remain in place. The goal is to remove contamination while protecting structural elements and any viable insulation that is still performing as it should. When you ask us to clean a loft before new insulation is installed, only the affected zones receive attention, and your existing ceiling structure stays untouched throughout the cleaning process.
What if hazardous materials like asbestos are found during a loft clean out?
We halt deep loft cleaning immediately if we suspect asbestos-containing materials. Our technicians are trained to recognise potential asbestos products, including old insulation boards and pipe lagging. Any loft debris removal involving confirmed asbestos must be handled by licensed specialist contractors. Where needed, we arrange testing through accredited testing providers, and work only resumes once hazardous materials have been safely removed by qualified handlers.
Can you handle pest decontamination during the loft clean out?
Yes – our loft decontamination process tackles biological hazards from birds, rodents, and insects as part of the service where required. We remove droppings, nesting materials, and carcasses before applying targeted treatments. Loft biocide treatment is then used to eliminate bacteria, fungi, and parasites left behind by infestations. Industrial-grade products help neutralise odours and destroy harmful pathogens, creating a hygienic environment that is safe for future use or new insulation installation.
Do you provide a certificate or report after a loft clean out for insurance or sales?
Our loft clearance documentation can support property transactions and insurance claims. We can photograph conditions before and after cleaning so you have a clear record of the work completed. Loft rubbish removal quantities are listed on your waste transfer documentation if needed, and we can provide you with a completion certificate confirming the scope of work we performed. These records are particularly useful during home sales when buyers or surveyors request evidence of property maintenance.
How do you ensure minimal dust and debris enters living areas during the service?
Our attic rubbish clearance follows strict containment protocols to protect your home. Before we start, technicians seal the loft hatch area with plastic sheeting, and where appropriate we use negative air pressure methods to draw particles away from the opening. Loft space preparation also includes laying protective covers on landing and hallway areas below the hatch. All debris is moved in sealed bags to collection points outside, helping keep your living spaces clean throughout the entire cleaning operation.
