Attic Inspection, Toronto

Somebody goes up, measures, photographs it, and you get the file either way.

Four inches of attic insulation beside sixteen inches, drawn to the same scale As we usually find it R–12 About 4 inches, settled Ontario code in the 1970s What the rebate pays for R–50 About 16 inches, blown Current Ontario standard 16″ 8″ 4″ 0 Drawn to one scale. Depth is measured at the joist, away from the hatch and the eaves.

Depth is measured at the joist, not at the hatch

What gets checked

An attic inspection that takes ten minutes and produces a price is a sales call. A real one takes longer and produces a record.

  • Depth, measured at the joist — away from the hatch and away from the eaves, because those two places always read wrong. The middle of an attic is deeper than its edges, and the edges are what determine performance.
  • Soffit intake — blocked or clear, baffles present or absent.
  • Bathroom and kitchen fans — ducted outside, or dumping into the attic. We find the second regularly.
  • The sheathing — staining, frost history, daylight, active leaks.
  • The hatch — sealed and insulated, or a bare sheet of plywood.
  • Evidence of animals — runs, droppings, nesting, chewed sheathing.

You get the depth, the rebate tier, the dollar figure and the photographs whether or not you use us.

When this is the wrong answer

If you already have a recent inspection with photographs and a measured depth from somebody else, you do not need ours. Send it over and we will quote from it.

Common questions

Is the inspection really free?

Yes, and there is no deposit on attic work either. We are not recovering the cost of the visit somewhere else in the quote.

How long does it take?

Half an hour in most houses, longer if access is difficult or there is damage to document.
