Attic insulation in Hanover, walking a green path

• Certainly, it has been articulated many times over the years, savings come from conservation and using more fossil fuels than you need is bad for the environment. But no one has mentioned the costs of greening your home through conservation. The cost of new attic insulation is slight when stacked up against other conservation plans and the recovery of the investment can be in the area of 18-24 months for a lifetime of savings.
• When you are ready to make the commitment to install new insulation, chose our contractor wisely, as much depends on the choice. You need a certified, professional with a large dose of experience installing insulation. The contractor should be local, and has done work regionally that can be investigated to determine the contractors credentials.
• After you have chosen a professional company for the work and it is completed, the warranty on the shingles becomes active. Warranties on any product or service are important, but a shingle warranty – that can be up to 50-years long – is worth having. Insulation stops heat loss through the roof and stops damage to the shingles. Shingles weren’t made to withstand intense heat and the insulation will protect the shingles and the roof from damage. The warranty is also a great selling point for a homeowner because the warranty can be transported through the sale of your house to a new owner.
• Making a commitment to blunt the effect of climate change through regulation and legislation, the provincial government has introduced changes to the building code that affects attic retrofits. They have set a target of R-20 for all retrofits but it has some fine print attached that doesn’t encompass the target. House size, lifestyle and regional climate can be deciding factors for your insulation purchase. Our experts can get you over the insulation finish line with a solid plan for your retrofit and if after a review of the recommendation you think more will help; we can install it for you.
• To get your new blown in, loose fill, fiberglass insulation installed, you may need to get from under any old product in the attic. We provide the service of extraction before we begin that involves a large vacuum and some suction to create a clean workspace for your installation.

The loose fill we have chosen for our attic retrofit work comes from Owens Corning in the form of their EcoTouch Pink fiberglass insulation. Owens Corning are the masters of fiberglass – they invented it in the 1930’s – and developed it into the product it is today, the industry standard. It is has strong density potential, is green – 73-per-cent remanufactured glass – and if by far the most popular choice of contractors across Canada.

Working collaboratively with Corning for many years and using the best products on the market, Corning has seen fit to award our company with a special certification. We have received the privileged designation of Platinum Preferred Contractor, the only one in Canada and we are appreciative of the special certification.

Over time, we have garnered a lot of attention for our work in the roofing and insulation industry and if we’ve learned anything last over 60 years it is this: Quality-workmanship and attention to customer needs are the two most important things we do.
