Expert Attic Insulation Services in Toronto

Living in Toronto means facing a climate that swings from chilly winters to hot, humid summers. Proper insulation is essential to keep your home comfortable year-round while cutting down on your energy bills. As energy efficiency specialists serving neighborhoods from The Beaches to Etobicoke, we understand the unique insulation needs that Toronto homeowners face. Our team is dedicated to providing tailored solutions that stand up to the city’s seasonal extremes.

We specialize in a range of insulation services including attic insulation upgrades, spray foam application, and blown-in insulation using premium products like Icynene spray foam and Owens Corning fiberglass. Spray foam insulation, for example, not only creates an airtight seal but also adds structural strength to your home. This is especially beneficial for older homes in areas like Cabbagetown, where drafty attics can lead to significant heat loss. Our blown-in cellulose insulation is another popular choice, offering excellent thermal performance and soundproofing, ideal for multi-unit buildings in downtown Toronto.

Attic Insulation Questions Answered

Common questions from Toronto homeowners about attic insulation

What R-value do I need in Toronto?

Ontario Building Code recommends R-50 minimum for attics in our climate zone. We typically install R-50 to R-60 for optimal performance and maximum energy savings. This exceeds code requirements and provides the best long-term value.

How long does attic insulation installation take?

Most residential attics (1,000-1,500 sq ft) take 1-2 days to complete, including air sealing and ventilation work. Larger homes or complex attic spaces may require additional time. We always provide a detailed timeline in your proposal.

Can I add insulation over existing insulation?

Yes! Adding blown-in insulation over existing material is common and cost-effective. We first inspect for moisture issues, remove any damaged insulation, complete air sealing, then add new material to reach target R-value.

How much can I save with government rebates?

Toronto homeowners can access up to $11,250 in combined federal and provincial rebates for insulation upgrades. We handle all paperwork, applications, and energy audits required. The rebates significantly reduce your out-of-pocket investment.

Will insulation help with ice dams?

Absolutely! Ice dams form when heat escapes through the roof, melting snow that refreezes at eaves. Proper insulation combined with air sealing and ventilation keeps your roof deck cold, preventing ice dam formation.

What about ventilation - won't insulation block airflow?

Our installation includes engineered ventilation baffles that maintain continuous airflow from soffit to ridge vent. Proper ventilation is critical for insulation performance - we never compromise on this aspect.
