Whitby Attic Insulation Company

A properly functioning attic is an essential part of your roofing system on your Whitby home. It needs to be vented correctly to allow proper airflow through the attic at different times of the year. Additionally, to stop heated and cooled air loss from the interior of the home, your attic requires the proper level of insulation.

Over the years, here at Logik Roofing & Insulation, our attic insulation contractors in Whitby have discovered most homes in the area have insufficient attic insulation. Why? This is largely in part to the building codes in effect when your home was built. Even recently built homes can be improperly insulated because building codes only require a R32 R-Value rating for attics.

However, even at this level of insulation, you are losing about 25% of your heated and cooled air through the attic. This has a dramatic effect on your hydro and gas bills. By having our attic installation contractors install blown insulation over the existing insulation to an R50 or R60 R-Value rating, you can reduce air loss by as much as 80%!

Imaging the savings this could have on your energy bills! By investing in improving your attic insulation, the cost of the upgraded insulation pays for itself with the energy savings you experience, year after year.

Top Up Your Attic Insulation

How Improving Attic Insulation Can Help Your Home

There are several benefits homeowners gain by improving their attic insulation which includes:

Saves Money

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.

Conserves Energy

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.

Helps Protect the Environment

When you improve the insulation in your attic, you are making your home more energy efficient. This means you are also reducing greenhouse gas emissions because you are using less energy to heat your home. Not only are you doing something good for the environment, but you are also saving on your home’s energy bills.

Increased Comfort

The more attic insulation you have, the more comfortable your home will be. A correctly insulated attic helps save energy year round by keeping it warmer in winter and cooler in the summer.

Attic Ventilation & Air Circulation Services Whitby

Proper ventilation is essential in maximizing the full potential of your insulation. These two things go hand in hand in ensuring that there is proper air circulation throughout your attic. By doing this you ensure that your hot air will escape in the summer keeping your home cooler and moisture will escape in the winter reducing condensation buildup.

Attic ventilation is a must!

Roof vents and soffit baffles work together with Attic insulation to ensure you have a properly functioning attic. That’s why we offer a FREE attic inspection before any work is performed – we want to ensure that the most appropriate ventilation systems are installed throughout. We offer a wide range of options – from soffit vents, to installing rafter vents, to turbine and solar vents.

Attic Insulation Removal Services in Whitby & Durham

Insulation removal is not an easy task, but can be required for many different reasons including, Animal infestations, smoke damage, water damage, major renovations or mold.

Whatever the reason, we offer efficient and safe removal services for all blown in and fiberglass batt insulation. At Logik Roofing & Insulation we use the industry leading techniques to ensure that there isn’t any dust or mess in your home and that the space is ready for the next stage of the process.

How We Do It

We use a custom, high-powered vacuum, connected to a long hose, that can quickly and safely suck up all unsafe dust, insulation and debris. The waste is collected in a large-volume filter bag, which is designed specifically for insulation material. We haul away the insulation material. This is a safe and efficient process.

If you have blown-in insulation material that needs to be removed, it’s important to remember that blown-in insulation makes it difficult to see where you are walking. This makes removing insulation yourself very dangerous. It’s best to leave it to the pros with the experience and equipment it takes to get the job done quickly, completely and safely. Give Logik Roofing & Insulation a call today if you need your attic insulation removed.

Fibreglass Batt Insulation

Fibreglass batt insulation is a highly reliable product that is commonly installed on basement walls. Professionally installed, fibreglass batts are strategically placed into a given space so that a protective thermal “blanket” is created. A vapour barrier must be installed in addition to the insulation.

Fibreglass batts are non-corrosive and non-combustible. The material is asbestos-free, odour-free, and air-quality certified. In a basement space, Fibreglass batts ensure good long-term performance, and an excellent return-on-investment based on your annual savings on heating and cooling costs.

Attic Mold Remediation & Removal in Whitby

Attics are one of the most common areas of mold growth in the home. Attics tend to have the perfect conditions for mold growth. Furthermore, most homeowners don’t ever go up in their attic, so the mold problem is allowed to grow undisturbed – often for years!

Most people learn about their problem right before they sell their home or when getting their attic insulation upgraded.

Attic Mold is Common

If you have the unfortunate experience of having to deal with attic mold, know that you’re not alone. Attic mold is very common and is dealt with by tens of thousands of families every year.

Common Causes Of Attic Mold

What Causes Attic Mold?

Generally speaking, attic moisture problems that lead to mold growth are most often caused by:

Blocked or Insufficient Ventilation
Improper Exhausting of Bathroom Fans or Dryer Vents
Roof Issues/Leaks

Blocked or Insufficient Ventilation

The most common cause of attic mold, by far, is blocked or insufficient ventilation of the attic space. Attics usually have a passive ventilation system in which outside air comes in through the soffit/eave vents at the bottom, warms up in the attic, and escapes through the vents at the top (because hot air rises). That cycle creates a nice, breezy airflow and a well-ventilated attic.

We often see the soffit/eave vents blocked with insulation, thereby destroying the whole passive ventilation system. And when that system is destroyed, warm and humid air in the attic will stagnate, and often condense along the cold wood sheathing in the winter, causing wet wood and subsequent mold growth throughout much of the attic.

Improper Exhausting of Bathroom Fans or Dryer Vents

Dryer exhaust vents, kitchen exhaust fans and bathroom exhaust fans are designed to pump moisture OUT of your home. So make absolutely sure that they terminate outside your home and NEVER in the attic.

Roof Issues/Leaks

Roof leaks will often lead to a small, localized area of attic mold near where the leak is occurring.

We offer FREE onsite attic mold evaluations.
