Insulation in Oakville

Lakeshore stock that is older than it looks, and newer stock that is deeper than it needs to be.

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.

The tier is set by the depth we measure, not by the postcode

What we find in Oakville attics

Old Oakville and Bronte hold pre-war and post-war houses with shallow attics and, in the masonry ones, completely empty wall cavities. Those are the two-measure candidates — attic and walls together, which unlocks the assessment pathway and considerably more money than the attic alone. River Oaks and Glen Abbey from the 1980s usually sit in the middle tier. Anything built after about 2005 is generally past the point where the attic stream pays.

Getting a crew to you

Oakville is a planned run rather than a drop-in, so give us a few days' notice and we will fit you into a block heading that way.

Typical lead time: Three to five working days. Nothing about the rebate changes with distance — the programme is province-wide — but the diary does, and autumn fills before anything else.

What the attic stream pays

No energy assessment, one measure, and the tier set by the depth we measure before we start.

What we will tell you about your house

  • The measured depth, taken at the joist rather than at the hatch.
  • Which tier that puts you in, and the dollar figure with the fifty per cent cap applied.
  • Whether the soffits are blocked, because deep insulation over blocked soffits causes frost.
  • Whether the bath fans vent outside or into the attic.
  • If you are already over R–35, that the attic stream will not pay — and what is still worth doing instead.

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