Perfect Attic Insulation in Repentigny, Qc

Our client, residing in Repentigny, was confused: Despite recently installing fiberglass insulation, he stills feels the same bad effects. 

Thus, our specialist Alexandrine visited our client to inspect the attic. She directly sensed the excess moisture, and even noticed some mold on the ceiling. Alexandrine explained that simply putting insulation all the over the attic is not sufficient. Air sealing is a main step that should not be missed. In addition, the amount of installed insulation should help reach a thermal value of R60. 

 

Perfect Attic Insulation in Boloeil, Qc

Our client in Boloeil had concerns about their attic. During the inspection, our specialist noticed excessive and uncomfortable heat, as well as damage to the existing insulation.

The specialist identified that this overheating was primarily due to air leaks coming from various sources, including around the chimney, recessed lighting, and through cable and pipe passages. These same air leaks also cause significant heat loss, resulting in a drop in indoor temperature during winter. This phenomenon increases the demand on heating and cooling systems, leading to higher energy costs.

Our solution involved removing the damaged insulation, thoroughly sealing all air leakage points, and installing new, high-performance insulation.

The client expressed complete satisfaction with the results, as well as with the professionalism of our team throughout the process.

TiteShell protection for depressed lighting in Mont-Saint-Hilaire, Qc

This product is crucial before insulating the attic. If you have recessed lights, these protective boxes prevent air warmed by the light from entering the attic through the cane and wire holes. Hot air impairs insulation in the attic. If air leaks are not sealed properly, you are not taking advantage of the maximum capacity that your insulation can offer you. Hiding the problem under insulation is not the same as fixing it. In addition, the majority of insulation products are not flame retardant. It is dangerous to put insulation directly on recessed lights.

Attic Insulation in Lavaltrie, Quebec

A homeowner in Lavaltrie, Quebec, contacted us concerning increased humidity levels and significant air leakage within their attic, which were compromising the overall energy efficiency of their home. Upon conducting a thorough inspection, our specialist identified inadequate insulation and numerous unsealed air gaps as clear contributors to the homeowner's concerns. To address these issues, we first removed the deteriorated existing insulation materials, which no longer provided sufficient thermal resistance. Next, we meticulously sealed all sources of air infiltration using ZypFoam, an advanced spray-applied foam designed to eliminate air leaks.

Following the air sealing, we blew in about 16-inch of TruSoft cellulose insulation, reaching a R60 insulation value, which is optimal for preventing heat loss in most of the regions in South Quebec. The cellulose insulation, not only provides superior thermal performance but also offers a natural resistance to pests and mold. These upgrades have improved the attic’s energy efficiency, ensuring better temperature regulation, reduced heating and cooling costs, and safeguarding the home against moisture infiltration and potential mold growth.

Attic Insulation in Saint-Hyacinthe, QC

Our client in Saint-Hyacinthe had concerns about their attic. They entered their attic and felt an uncomfortable heat. Additionally, they noticed a damaged section of their existing insulation. Our specialist explained to the client that this heat is one of the consequences of air leaks from multiple sources, such as recessed lighting and holes for wires and pipes. Similarly, these air leaks will cause uncomfortable cold during the winter months. Moreover, the amount of existing insulation was inadequate. The result is an increase in Hydro bills due to the overuse of heating and cooling systems.

Our solution included the removal of the old insulation, sealing all sources of air leaks, and installing new insulation.

Our client was very satisfied with the results, as well as the entire process followed by our team.
