Insulating an attic in our client's house in Longueil, Qc

The problem

Mrs. Barnes bought a new house in Longueuil and following our inspection she had to re-insulate the attic to improve the ventilation and the effectiveness of the insulation. The lack of ventilation caused a lot of humidity in the attic which created mold on the wood and led it to get rotten.

The solution

- Seal all air leaks in the attic. With our expanded polyurethane foam, we seal the joints and holes on the floor in order to eliminate air leaks.

- Seal and insulate recessed lights with boxes.

- Add vents to allow controlled ventilation in the attic and prevent air from coming into contact with the insulation.

- Blow a little over 16” of cellulose fibers. Highly effective, safe, and environmentally friendly insulation!
