About Orillia Attic Insulation

One Rate Sheet For Cottages And Houses

A cottage and a house are priced the same way. The rates per square foot do not rise because a building sits on the shore, is used only part of the year or lies at the end of a long gravel lane.

If a cottage needs more than a house, such as extra sealing in a board ceiling, that work is written on a separate line. You can see what each piece costs and why it is there.

No Price Until Someone Has Been In The Attic

We do not quote attics over the phone. Someone comes out, climbs through the hatch, measures the depth and looks at the venting, the holes in the ceiling and the state of the old fill.

You receive photos of what we found and a quote on paper that spells out how deep, what R-value and how much for every step. The visit costs nothing and you are never pushed to book.

Sealing Always Comes Before Filling

Leaks in a ceiling waste heat that no depth of attic insulation can hold back. The openings around lights, pipes, chimneys and the hatch get closed before the new layer goes down.

That order matters most in older houses and cottages, whose ceilings were never built to be airtight. It also does the most to stop ice dams and frost on the roof boards.

The House Is Left As We Found It

Drop cloths cover the route from your entrance to the hatch, and the hose and the work stay up in the attic. Once the hose is rolled up, the route through the house gets vacuumed and every bag and scrap goes out to the truck.

Every Job Finishes With The Depth In View

Depth rulers are set up in the attic before the attic insulation is blown in. When the work is done, you are shown the finished depth on them, and they stay put so you can check them whenever you like.
