Over time, blown-in cellulose or fibreglass insulation can settle or become compacted, which reduces its effectiveness. If you use your attic for storage (please don’t!), items placed on top of insulation will have compacted it further.

If your attic or walls have been infiltrated by critters, the insulation might be damaged and need removal. Signs of this include animal dung in the attic space or attic insulation visible outside the home.

After the old insulation is removed, Advanced Insulation can create a more energy-efficient and comfortable attic environment. We’ll perform air sealing on all attic floor penetrations like pipes, wires, and vents to prevent conditioned air from leaking out and unconditioned air from entering. Proper ventilation with soffit vents and a ridge vent will be installed to manage moisture buildup and prevent problems like mold growth and ice damming. Finally, we’ll install new, high-performance insulation to meet modern building code standards, maximizing your home’s energy savings and creating a more consistent and comfortable living temperature year-round.
