North Bay is in the same province-wide programme as the GTA. The tier is set by the depth in your attic, not by where the house is.
We work in North Bay. Our coverage runs across Ontario, from Toronto to the northwest. Dates outside the Greater Toronto Area are booked by appointment and confirmed with you before anything is scheduled, so ask early rather than late. Where we work.
North Bay winters are long and the lake effect off Nipissing brings heavy snow loads, so ice damming is a routine problem rather than an occasional one. Ice dams are an insulation and ventilation failure: heat escaping through the ceiling melts snow, the meltwater refreezes at the cold eave, and the dam forces water back under the shingles. The attic upgrade the rebate pays for is the same work that stops it.
No energy assessment, one measure, and the tier set by the depth already in the attic.
| What is up there now | Upgraded to | Maximum rebate |
|---|---|---|
| R–12 or less — under about 4 inches | R–50 | $1,250 |
| R–12 to R–25 — about 4 to 8 inches | R–50 | $1,000 |
| R–25 to R–35 — about 8 to 11 inches | R–50 | $800 |
Amounts are set by Enbridge Gas and Save on Energy and are quoted from the programme pages — attic stream, assessment stream — checked September 2026.
The rebate is capped at 50% of the invoice after tax, there is one attic rebate per home ever, and the work must be done by a contractor already registered on the programme's attic stream. The programme website states that registrations for that stream are currently closed.
Ask any contractor quoting you two questions before anything else: whether they are a participating contractor on the Home Renovation Savings attic stream, and what depth they measured at the joist. Then confirm the first with the programme directly rather than taking anyone's word for it, ours included. The programme's own page is here.
You will see 30 November 2026 on a lot of insulation websites. We read both programme publishers on 24 September 2026 and neither states an end date. Ask anyone showing you that date where it is published. What the programme does state is that its attic contractor list is closed to new applicants, and that is the limit worth caring about.
Tell us the depth you can see at the hatch and roughly when the house was built and we can give you the tier and the figure before anyone drives anywhere. If the job is straightforward and you already have an inspection or assessment report, we may not need a visit before the work at all. How a job actually runs.
