Attic Insulation in Salaberry-De-Valleyfield, Quebec

A homeowner in Salaberry-de-Valleyfield, Quebec was frustrated after hiring other contractors to insulate his attic, without successful results. The insulation was always quickly deteriorating, causing humidity, drafts, mold, and high Hydro bills.

Our team removed the old insulation, sealed all air leaks with our ZypFoam spray foam, then blew in TruSoft cellulose insulation up to reach the thermal R-value of 60.

Attic Insulation in Saint-Stanislas-De-Kostka, Quebec

A homeowner in Saint-Stanislas-De-Kostka, Quebec, was worried about the situation within his attic. During our inspection, our specialist identified significant degradation of the existing insulation during to air leaks, compounded by the presence of mold spores within the wood structure. To rectify this, we first removed the compromised insulation, followed by sealing all air leaks using our ZypFoam solution to ensure an airtight barrier. After effectively eliminating mold spores with Mold-X2, we proceeded with the installation of 17 inches of TruSoft cellulose insulation, which provides an R60 thermal resistance value.

Insulating a damp attic in Saint-Lazare, QC

Our client in Saint-Lazare, Quebec, contacted us about concerns with their attic's condition before winter. After inspecting the attic, we discovered excessive humidity and air leaks, which were compromising the home’s energy efficiency and increasing heating costs. We addressed the issue by removing the old insulation, sealing air leaks, and installing TruSoft cellulose insulation to ensure optimal energy efficiency and protection against moisture.

Reducing energy costs by insulating our client's attic in Les Cedres, Qc

The problem

Mrs. Hanley had an attic that wasn't enough insulated. There were less than 10 in. of cellulose fibers in her attic which was equivalent to an R-38 value. The air circulation was almost non-existent which made the attic very humid.

The solution

Remove the cellulose, seal air leaks on the attic floor such as seams and holes with our polyurethane foam, add ventilation mats to improve air circulation, and then blow a little over 16" of cellulose fibers.

Attic Insulation in Vaudreuil-Dorion, Quebec

A homeowner contacted us regarding issues with cold air infiltration and elevated energy consumption, which indicated a deficiency in the attic’s thermal insulation. Upon thorough inspection, we identified the existing insulation as inadequate, and further detected mold growth on the wooden rafters and underneath the insulation layer, attributed to insufficient ventilation and moisture entrapment.

To address these deficiencies, we commenced by removing the compromised insulation to expose the full extent of air leakage points. We applied Mold-X2, a specialized mold treatment, to completely eradicate the spores from the wooden structure. Subsequently, we used ZypFoam to precisely seal all air leaks, effectively preventing future energy loss and air drafts. Finally, we installed 17 inches of TruSoft cellulose insulation, achieving a thermal resistance value of R60. This upgrade significantly enhanced the attic’s energy efficiency, providing improved thermal regulation and moisture protection. The homeowner expressed satisfaction with the resulting increase in home comfort and the anticipated reduction in energy expenses.
