Niagara's damp winters make ventilation faults show up faster than they do further north.
The stock is largely post-war with a good deal of 1950s and 1960s bungalow, plus older housing near the old canal. The Niagara climate is milder but much damper than the GTA, and damp is what turns a ventilation fault into visible mould quickly. Attics here show staining and frost damage earlier than equivalent houses in York Region, so the inspection matters as much as the insulation.
St. Catharines is the far edge of our range and is always a scheduled block. We will tell you the next date rather than promise a week.
Typical lead time: Scheduled blocks only. Nothing about the rebate changes with distance — the programme is province-wide — but the diary does, and autumn fills before anything else.
No energy assessment, one measure, and the tier set by the depth we measure before we start.

| R–12 to R–25 — about 4 to 8 inches | R–50 | $1,000 |
