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.
At Logik Roofing & Insulation, we can help reduce heat loss and improve the comfort of your home with our Stouffville attic insulation services. Were you aware that most Stouffville homes lose as much as 25% of heat through their attics?
Event recently built homes may lack sufficient insulation to stop heat loss. In fact, many homes only have about 10 inches – or LESS – of attic insulation. Even with 10 inches, your home only has an R32 rating.
More than half or Stouffville homes’ energy costs are for heating and cooling when the homes have an R32 rating for their attic insulation. The R rating is how well the insulation is at preventing heat loss.
The higher the number the more effective it is. In Stouffville, the recommended R rating for attic insulation is between R50 and R60. By topping up your attic insulation to an R50 or R60 rating, you could reduce heat loss by as much as 80%.
There are several benefits you can gain by topping up your attic insulation in your Stouffville home including:
The top reason for topping up attic insulation is to reduce heat loss, which also helps lower your heating and cooling costs. To achieve this, it also requires your roofing and attic system to be properly sealed and vented.
Logik Roofing & Insulation are experts at verifying your roofing and attic system are sealed and vented correctly. Plus, we can recommend how much insulation your Stouffville home needs to achieve between an R50 and R60 rating.
Additionally, we do a detailed inspection of your attic and will remove any damaged insulation before installing new. Old insulation is no longer effective at stopping heat loss, so it must be replaced.
Our experienced roofing and insulation contractors can even help with basement and wall insulation improvements. Improving basement and wall insulation will further reduce heat loss and improve the comfort levels in your Stouffville home.
The costs to heat a home in Canada can be very expensive. Many homes built in Ontario were constructed during a time when there was plenty of inexpensive energy supplies. As such, these homes were only built with the minimal amount of attic insulation required.
With energy costs being much higher today, retrofitting your attic with more insulation is one of the least costly and most efficient ways to help reduce your home heating energy bills by as much as $500 a year.
The costs to heat our homes uses about 17 percent of Ontario’s annual energy usages. Most of this energy could and should be saved. Retrofitting your attic by improving the insulation can help save our valuable energy resources. Energy conservation helps preserve current resources at a cost lower than having to produce new energy resources.
