Attic Insulation & Air Sealing Services in Pierrefonds, QC

Our client, residing in Pierrefonds, contacted us through our website: He wanted to have his attic inspected and potentially repair any damage before winter. After scheduling an appointment with our appointment center, our specialist Alexandrine went on-site. After a thorough examination of the attic, Alexandrine explained that there was excessive moisture, which is a consequence of air leaks from multiple sources such as the space around the chimney, recessed lighting fixtures, and holes for wires and pipes. This can expedite mold formation. Consequently, the existing insulation will rot, lose its effectiveness, and reduce residential comfort and energy efficiency.

After signing the contract with the client, we began the repair work under the supervision of our foreman Colin:

Removal of the old insulation: This step is important even though other professionals suggest adding insulation on top of the old one. In fact, this step allows us to identify all air leaks that need to be sealed. Moreover, it can also facilitate the removal of any mold stains (if any).

Sealing all air leaks: Using our high-quality ZypFoam, we eliminated all air leaks. This step is very important to maintain consistent temperatures and prevent moisture entry.

Installation of new insulation: We blew our TruSoft cellulose insulation throughout the entire attic. This insulation is fire-resistant and mold-resistant. We blew approximately 17" to achieve an R60 thermal value.

Our client was very satisfied with the results, as well as the entire process followed by our team. The attic will ensure residential comfort and energy efficiency during the upcoming winter.
