Attic Insulation in Stratford

For those of us who still receive home mail delivery, our mailboxes are inundated with flyers from all things advertising. Flyers and brochures for the next big thing, or restaurants, car lots and other collateral media keep coming in a stream that seems never-ending. Of late, local power companies have gotten in on the direct marketing act sending our flyers and brochures to tell us how swapping out light bulbs can save money. It is a good idea and many people have taken advantage of the opportunity to reduce their energy consumption through low-wattage light bulbs. It is a small investment that yields small returns, but every little bit helps our communal conservation efforts. Window companies often advertise their products in a similar fashion, promising energy savings while taking a lead in environmental stewardship. But, the thing they don’t tell you is how much replacement cost and what the return will be and when. Some window retrofits can take between 10-15 years to recoup the initial investment. A better bang for your scare buck is attic insulation in Stratford and other communities. Many studies have been produced indicating that a home’s heat loss – up to 40 per cent – can be traced back to poor attic insulation. In effect, your money is going right through the roof, and that is a situation that needs to be remedied immediately. Lets us at AM Roofing Solutions demonstrate how energy efficiency can be achieved through conservation with an investment in new attic insulation in Stratford. When you contact us for an attic retrofit, we will look at three aspects of your attic insulation and take action to bring them up to standard. The first stage of the retrofit involves the vapour and moisture barriers that should be present in the attic. If they aren’t 100 per cent air and moisture tight we will replace them before we install the blown-in loose fill insulation. Having proper barriers will provide the insulation the opportunity to do what it was designed to do and that is to create an air and moisture tight blanket in your attic. After the insulation is installed a soffit will be the last order of business for attic retrofit. The soffit plays a big role in your attic insulation system because it vents unwanted heat from your attic, and that protects the shingles from excessive heat exposure. If the shingles are exposed to too much heat they will decay and cause stress points in your roofing system that could lead to costly repairs or worse, a replacement roof. Let us show you the benefits of new attic insulation in Stratford that pay dividends in ways that you may not be aware of.
