Attic Insulation Before & After Photos

The problem

Mold in the attic because of poor ventilation and low insulation.

The customer seeks to decontaminate the attic and reinsolate it.

The solution

Our team has removed existing mold in the attic thanks to our MoldX product. We then closed the air leaks on the attic floor and isolated the attic with Cellulose Fiber.

The spectacular transformation we brought to the attic of a Greenfield Park home! Before our intervention, the household suffered from excessive drafts, exorbitant winter electricity bills, and even worrisome mold stains. Our team intervened with innovative solutions. We removed the old insulation, revealing hidden air leaks, then applied our Mold-X2 product to eliminate any trace of mold. Next, we sealed every hole, including the attic access hatch, ensuring airtight insulation. Finally, thanks to our TruSoft cellulose insulation, we achieved superior insulation quality.

Our client in Anjou contacted us to inspect his attic insulation, which he felt was not performing as expected. Our specialist found insufficient insulation and air leaks, so we added more insulation and sealed all leaks. The completed work significantly reduces heating and cooling costs, prevents moisture build-up, and enhances energy efficiency.

The problem

The attic’s insulation of Mr. Gagnon's house was insufficient. There were only 10 in. and less fiberglass mats, which was equivalent to an R-25 value. This made her home uncomfortable, rooms were often too hot in summer and too cold in winter, and her house’s energy costs were very high.

The solution

Reinsulate the attic to achieve an R-60 value and thus make the house more comfortable and energy efficient.

We sealed all the air leaks on the attic floor, insulated the duct system as well as the chimney and insulated the vertical wall separating two attic levels. Then we installed vents all the way through the soffits and then blew just over 16” of cellulose fiber.

A homeowner in Saint-Jean-Sur-Richelieu, QC, was increasingly worried as winter approached, facing significant humidity problems in their attic. The space was plagued by a persistent odor and insufficient insulation, raising concerns about the impact on both comfort and heating bills during the colder months. Our specialist discovered several sources of air infiltration, particularly around recessed lighting and where wires and pipes entered the attic. These issues led to excessive humidity buildup, creating a perfect environment for mold growth.

To resolve these issues, we removed the old, inadequate insulation and sealed all identified air infiltration points. The areas affected by mold were thoroughly cleaned and disinfected to eliminate any traces of contamination. We then installed new cellulose insulation, achieving an R60 thermal resistance, which ensured stable indoor temperatures and optimal energy efficiency. This comprehensive solution not only prevented future humidity and mold problems but also provided the homeowner with peace of mind as winter approached.
