Insulation in Oshawa

What we find in Oshawa attics

The stock around downtown and south Oshawa is 1940s and 1950s, built quickly and insulated to the standard of the day, which is to say barely. Shallow attics, simple gable roofs, and in the masonry houses, empty wall cavities. Top tier, straightforward work. The north Oshawa growth from the 1990s onward measures deeper and is usually a middle-tier or no-tier job.

Getting a crew to you

Oshawa is a scheduled run east along the 401. We batch Durham work, so a few days' notice gets you a better slot.

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.

Amounts are set by Enbridge Gas and Save on Energy and are quoted from the programme pages — attic stream, assessment stream — checked September 2026.

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.
