About Barrhaven Attic Insulation

Why Sealing Always Comes First For Us

A deep layer over a leaky ceiling is like a thick sweater with the zipper open. Warm air still escapes through the gaps, and it carries moisture with it. An attic can hold plenty of insulation and still lose heat at every pot light.

Sealing first costs a few extra hours, and it is what makes the rest of the work pay off. That is why it is part of every job we do.

The Visit Comes Before The Price

Every quote follows a visit to the attic itself. The visit takes about half an hour. Someone climbs through the hatch, checks the depth at several points, looks for leaks, mouse activity and water stains, and checks the vents and fan ducts. Then it all goes down on paper.

The written quote lists the sealing, the baffles, any removal and the insulation depth as separate lines, each with its own price.

Barrhaven Houses Follow Patterns

The first homes in Old Barrhaven were built with thin attic layers by today's standards. The newer subdivisions in Longfields, Davidson Heights and Half Moon Bay were built to code levels that leave room to add more, and many have long rows of pot lights. Townhouse attics have small hatches and shared walls. Homes facing the open fields at the south edge get wind through the eaves.

Knowing those patterns tells us what to look for. The visit still decides what your attic actually needs.

Clean Work Inside Your Home

Floors get covered all the way from the entry to the hatch, and the hatch area is closed off. Loose fill and removed material travel through hoses, never through your hallway in bags. Before we leave, the rooms below are vacuumed and you get photos of the finished attic.

Each Job We Do Is Fully Insured

Each job we do is fully insured. If you would like to see the policy details before the work starts, ask during the visit and we will send them.
