Attic Insulation Upgrade

Make every room feel right. Start in the attic.

If your upstairs is too hot in summer, too cold in winter, or your bills keep climbing, the attic is often the first place to fix. We assess first, then install with airtight details, proper ventilation, and clean workmanship.

  • Target performance: R-60 attic upgrade (Ontario friendly)
  • Air sealing first: seal leaks before insulation goes in
  • Ventilation protected: baffles + airflow checks
  • Photo proof: before and after photos, clean finish

What attic insulation fixes

The attic is where comfort problems often begin. Fixing it properly can change how the whole home feels.

Cold bedrooms in winter

Reduce heat loss so the top floor holds warmth longer and feels more consistent.

Hot upstairs in summer

Keep attic heat from pushing into living space so upstairs cools faster.

Drafts and comfort swings

Air sealing targets the small leaks that cause big comfort problems.

High heating and cooling costs

Reduce wasted energy by keeping conditioned air where it belongs.

Ice dams and icicles

Better attic sealing and insulation helps keep roof temperatures more stable.

Moisture and venting issues

We check airflow paths and common venting problem areas during inspection.

Our attic upgrade process

A premium result comes from doing the details in the right order.

  1. 1
    Inspect and measure
    Check insulation depth, attic access, venting, and common leakage points.
  2. 2
    Air seal first
    Seal gaps around penetrations, hatches, and key leak areas before adding insulation.
  3. 3
    Protect airflow
    Install or verify baffles so insulation does not block soffit ventilation.
  4. 4
    Insulate to target depth
    Bring the attic up to an appropriate level (often R-60). Depth varies by material.
  5. 5
    Photo proof and clean finish
    Before and after photos, tidy workspace, clear summary of work completed.

What we install

We recommend the right insulation approach based on your attic conditions, access, and goals. Most upgrades use blown insulation and focus heavily on sealing first.

Blown insulation
Great coverage for uneven spaces. Helps reduce gaps and thin spots.
Attic hatch sealing
Stops a common "hidden hole" in the ceiling that leaks conditioned air.
Ventilation baffles
Protects airflow from soffits so insulation does not choke ventilation.
Air leak sealing
Key step to prevent comfort swings and reduce wasted heating/cooling.
Note: The right depth depends on material and existing conditions. Many homes benefit from bringing attic insulation to a level equivalent to roughly 16 to 20 inches of blown material.

FAQ

Quick answers to common attic insulation questions.

How do I know if my attic is under-insulated?
Common signs include cold bedrooms in winter, hot upstairs in summer, uneven temperatures between floors, and a furnace or AC that runs longer than expected. An inspection confirms insulation depth and leakage points.
Do you remove old insulation?
It depends. If insulation is clean and dry, a top-up may be enough. If it is contaminated, wet, or uneven, removal can be recommended before upgrading.
Will this help with ice dams?
Ice dams are often linked to heat escaping into the attic. Better air sealing and proper insulation can help reduce the risk by keeping attic temperatures more stable. Ventilation details matter too.
How long does an attic insulation upgrade take?
Many projects are completed in a single visit. Timing depends on attic size, access, and how much air sealing is needed.
Do you provide a comfort guarantee?
We stand behind our workmanship. If you have concerns after installation, we will review the work and address installation-related issues where applicable. Ask our team what is covered during your inspection.
