Home / Attic Insulation Courtice
Our goal is simple. To provide you with the best attic insulation and roofing products available at a competitive price. Your family deserves nothing but the best. We wouldn’t put a shingle on your roof or insulation in your Attic that we wouldn’t use on our own home.
Did you know that your home could be losing as much as 25% of your home’s heat through the attic? At Logik Roofing & Insulation, we can help reduce heat loss with our Courtice attic insulation services.
Many Courtice homes, even recently built ones, lack enough insulation to stop heat loss. As a result, heating costs are higher to compensate for the heat loss. It is no surprise then that half or more of energy bills are just for heating and cooling.
Most people in Courtice are also surprised to learn that their homes only have about 10 inches of attic insulation – or LESS. With just 10 inches of insulation, these homes only have about an R32 insulation rating. The R rating is how well heat loss is prevented.
Ideally, it is recommended for homes in Courtice to have between R50 and R60 in attic insulation since it can help reduce heat loss by as much as 80%.
Topping up your attic insulation helps prevent and reduce heat loss. Plus, if you add more basement and wall insulation, you will reduce heat loss even more.
At Logik Roofing & Insulation, our roof and insulation contractors help you decide how much insulation your Courtice home needs. We do a thorough inspection of your attic and verify the current amount of insulation, whether there is any insulation damage, and check to see if your roof and attic are sealed and vented correctly.
If we discover any problems with damaged insulation, venting, or sealing, we will let you know what needs to be done to fix the problems. We also remove any damaged insulation prior to installing more since damaged insulation is no longer effective at preventing heat loss.
Our Courtice roofing and insulation professionals only use premium insulation products for the best results. We can also improve the insulation in your walls and basement if you want to further improve comfort levels.
By adding more insulation to your Courtice home, you gain several benefits including:
