If one of your children has bad allergies, then you'll spend a lot of your time making sure that your home is kept allergen free. This can be hard in older homes that seem to attract dust as soon as you turn your back.
Plus, in some cases, there may be areas of your home that you aren't cleaning that are contributing to your child's problems. For example, if your home has been around for a good few decades, then your roof space could be full of allergens. It may be worth having this space professionally vacuumed. Why?
What's in Your Roof Space?
If your roof space hasn't been cleaned for a few years, then it could contain a lot of allergens. For example, the space may well be full of everyday dust.
It may also be home to dust mites, old traces of pests that have been removed, and mites from birds that pop in and out of the area. You may even have particles of lead in there from old paints or traces of asbestos if it was used in the property in the past.
Why Clean up Your Roof Space?
Your child may not go up into your roof space, but stuff that is up there could filter down into the main part of your home. These kinds of materials can make your child's allergies flare up. Although your roof space is closed off, this doesn't guarantee that the dust and debris are fully contained. It may blow through gaps, come along pipe work holes, or fall into your home through air conditioning or heating systems.
If you clean this space up, you reduce the number of allergens that come into the living areas in your home. You may well make things more comfortable for your child.
Why Hire a Roof Vacuuming Contractor?
Popping into your roof space and running your vacuum around to clean things up isn't necessarily a good option. You're likely to disturb the dust up there and spread it around your home; you could also be dealing with some dangerous materials. A roof vacuuming company uses specialist machines that remove dust and debris from the roof from the outside. As well as keeping you and your family safe, this reduces the risk that the materials come into your living areas.
