Reach out and book your free insulation assessment—let us show you how proper insulation, using loose fill or batt insulation, fights heat loss and shrinks your energy bills with professional-grade precision.
Improvements in energy efficiency and comfort shouldn’t break the bank—especially for us prairie folk.
Blow‑in insulation, also known as loose fill insulation, is the clever way to deal with those drafty attic spaces. Our Fort Qu’Appelle installers use blown-in cellulose or fiberglass insulation to fill tricky areas—attic floors, wall cavities, and corners where batt insulation simply won’t cut it.
The dense coverage helps tame moisture buildup, reduce heat flow, and keep homes quieter through wind and winter freezes. Whether it’s retrofitting an older heritage home or outfitting a new build with spray foam, you get a snug, even layer that works like a charm year-round.
Understanding your insulation options is key to a snug, efficient home.
Here’s how batt insulation compares to blow‑in insulation:
Our team ensures the right insulation material—be it rigid foam insulation, batt, or blanket insulation—is paired with proper air sealing, a new vapour barrier, and tight fit around metal chimneys, preventing ice dams and keeping energy locked in.
When it comes to heat loss, your attic is the first line of defence.
Proper attic insulation with a mix of spray foam and blown insulation seals attic hatches, floor joists, and ceiling joists firmly. We use foam sealant around recessed light fixtures, maintain ridge vents and roof vents, and install a vapour retarder to manage moisture problems.
In Fort Qu’Appelle’s freeze‑thaw winters, that tight seal is what stops melting snow from turning into ice dams. With a straight edge, we cut insulation evenly and ensure there’s no air leakage. Your attic space stays dry, deliveries remain snug, and your home performs like a pro.
Don’t leave your walls out in the cold—your insulation should do its job there, too.
When installing insulation in exterior walls—using loose fill or rigid foam insulation—we seal around wall cavities, electrical boxes, and ensure proper installation to meet local building codes. This proper insulation in walls prevents drafts, improves energy efficiency, and keeps moisture away from exterior siding.
Sealing gaps with foam boards and adding insulation acts as your home’s silent guard. Pair that with well-installed roll insulation behind drywall and you’ve got a house that hums with comfort—no more chilly walls near doors or uneven heat flow.
Older builds deserve thoughtful upgrades—no shortcuts, just attention to detail.
In many Fort Qu’Appelle heritage homes, existing insulation is patchy or settling, especially with disturbed vermiculite insulation in old attic floors. Our installers carefully remove or enhance existing insulation, install blown-in cellulose, add second layer coverage, ensure vapour barrier integrity, and retrofit soffit vents and rafter vents.
Our equipment includes moisture meters to detect trouble, we use appropriate foam sealant around attic hatches, and always respect local building codes and fire hazard concerns. That way, we boost energy efficiency without touching historical charm.
Wondering whether you’re losing heat—and dollars?
If you’ve noticed any of these, it’s time to bring in a pro—someone who knows how to blow insulation into tight spots and seal critical pathways properly.
The R-value game is no joke when prairie winds bite—insulation performance counts.
Our pros recommend R‑40 to R‑60 for attic floors using blown-in cellulose in this region—that means adding loose fill or batt insulation in two layers until reaching loads in square feet. We often add spray foam near soffit vents or roof vents to seal air movement.
For exterior walls, maintaining R‑20 or higher with proper cavity fill and vapour barrier greatly boosts energy efficiency and cuts costs. Trust your insulation to do the heavy lifting in comfort and savings.
We don’t just install insulation—we optimize your whole envelope.
Our methods protect against heat loss, reduce utility bills, and deliver that snug, quiet, energy-efficient home every cold season of the year.
Ice dams can wreak havoc if you let them hang around. When warm air escapes through a poorly insulated attic space and melts snow on the roof, it runs down to the edges and re-freezes. That thick, heavy build-up blocks drainage, pushes water back under shingles, and causes leaks that damage ceilings, interior walls, and insulation below.
Our Fort Qu’Appelle insulation team takes a multi-step approach to stop ice dams before they start. We inspect every attic hatch, ridge vent, soffit vents, and exhaust opening to ensure there’s balanced air movement throughout the attic space. We also seal gaps using foam boards, fiberglass rolls, and closed cell foam around penetrations like recessed lights, chimneys, and sheet metal vents to keep warm air where it belongs.
Without proper moisture control, even the best insulation loses its punch. Humid air can sneak past cracks and openings, settle into insulation material, and eventually lead to mould, mildew, and damaged drywall. That’s why we take vapour barrier work seriously.
Our installers apply polyethylene vapour barriers, vapour retarder films, or closed cell foam depending on the location—whether it's under attic floors, inside wall studs, or behind finished interior walls. Every seam is sealed tight using aluminum foil tape, staples, and where needed, foam sealant to make sure no moisture seeps in over time.
Choosing the right insulation crew can mean the difference between years of comfort and an endless money pit. Here in Fort Qu’Appelle, where freezing winds and humid summers meet, your contractor needs to know how to install insulation that works with existing layers, supports moisture control, and meets Canadian code.
Our team brings decades of hands-on experience to every project, and we’re certified to disturb vermiculite insulation safely if present. We’re trained to navigate complex attic layouts, handle slag wool, and work around plumbing stacks, electrical boxes, and light fixtures—without cutting corners or missing gaps.
Insulation prices vary, but here’s what you can expect in Fort Qu’Appelle. Most blown-in insulation jobs land between $1.50 and $2.50 per square foot, depending on the size of your attic space, type of insulation material, and any special requirements like sealing air leaks or upgrading your ridge vent system.
We calculate everything precisely, starting with a full inspection using a tape measure, flashlight, and utility knife to determine depth, spot gaps, and assess your current setup. If there's already a usable existing layer, we may only need to top it up with a second layer of loose fill insulation or install a combination of batt insulation and blanket insulation where coverage is uneven.
Our work doesn’t end with shingles. We’re roofers and insulators rolled into one. That means you get trained pros who know how insulation impacts roof performance—and how roof design affects insulation. It also means we understand how to keep attic spaces dry, sealed, and efficient.
The best time to install insulation is late summer into early fall. This allows enough time to seal up before deep cold hits. But if you notice heat loss or drafty rooms now, don’t wait—adding insulation mid-season still provides immediate comfort and lower energy bills.
Get the blown insulation expertise your Fort Qu’Appelle home deserves—no upsells, no cut corners, just proper insulation, done right. Our rates are competitive, our crews are seasoned, and our warranty protection gives you peace of mind for years to come.
