Wheatland Roofing has been installing insulation in Regina Beach Properties since 1995. We’re a BBB-accredited and qualified contractor that combines expertise with precision to ensure proper insulation that adheres to all local building codes and matches the industry standards. Here’s why you should choose our trained and certified insulation installers.
Our insulation experts use top-quality insulation materials to ensure a tight seal against moisture buildup and heat flow. We help property owners add efficient insulation to critical areas such as wall cavities, attic spaces, and attic hatches. This way, we address various issues such as air leaks and condensation.
If you plan to add insulation to your property in Regina Beach, we recommend the following options.
Many insulation contractors in South Saskatchewan can complete an insulation installation job successfully. At Wheatland Roofing, we focus on recommending and installing the most efficient insulation for your home. We use unique techniques such as air sealing, creating vapour barriers, and addressing recessed light fixtures to prevent the formation of insulation gaps.
Over the years, blown insulation has become a game-changer for homeowners seeking to achieve higher energy efficiency. It offers precise coverage compared to other insulation options like rigid foam insulation. It’s also more efficient and durable than blanket insulation.
Wheatland Roofing uses high-quality loose-fill materials such as fiberglass or cellulose to fill each inch of your property’s wall cavities, attic floors, and other tight spaces. We pay special attention to the spaces around exhaust fans, ridge vents, metal chimneys, rafter vents, floor joists, recessed light fixtures, ceiling joists, wall studs, and electrical boxes. The result is a carefully installed insulation that acts as a vapour barrier and supports proper attic ventilation through the soffit vents.
Professional insulation installation prevents cold spots, mould growth, and moisture buildup and ensures proper circulation of warm air throughout your house. Indeed, blow-in insulation is a cost-effective way to prevent heat loss, achieve consistent temperature in your home, and reduce energy bills.
Cellulose is an insulation material made from recycled paper that’s treated with fire-retardant chemicals (to prevent fire hazards). It offers exceptional coverage for uneven attic floors. Cellulose conforms well around obstacles such as recessed light fixtures, wires, floor joists, and vents. This makes it an ideal insulation material for your attic space.
In addition, cellulose’s density limits air movement through the exterior walls. This limits heat loss and improves overall energy efficiency. Cellulose has an R-value of 3.5 per inch, making it a practical choice for insulating older properties where airflow gaps matter.
On the other hand, fiberglass is made of spun glass fibers. It’s lightweight and widely used as an insulation material in modern homes. It is available in fiberglass batts, loose-fill, and fiberglass roll insulation and works well in straightforward layout areas. With an R-value ranging from 2.2 to 2.7 per inch, fiberglass insulation is ideal for exterior walls, ceiling, and interior walls.
At Wheatland Roofing, we have been handling these insulation options for decades. Let our team assess your existing insulation and determine whether you need a second layer or your current home's insulation needs replacing.
Our team includes trained, certified, and experienced insulation professionals dedicated to improving energy efficiency and indoor comfort for homes in Regina Beach. You can rely on our expertise to install and maintain the following:
Proper attic insulation limits heat loss and reduces energy costs. At Wheatland Roofing, we recommend loose fill insulation, an efficient option that conforms to every nook to ensure proper air sealing. This minimizes air leakage and helps prevent the formation of ice dams during winter.
With an R-value that matches Regina Beach’s climate, our insulation solutions ensure consistent comfort and energy savings year-round. We can also apply spray foam insulation in critical areas where added protection is needed. Together with your existing vapour barrier, our attic solutions help protect against moisture problems, mould growth, and drafts.
Spray foam and blow-in insulation, particularly for exterior walls, can improve your property's energy efficiency as they fill the existing wall cavities with efficient vapour barriers. This insulation method limits drafts and heat loss while ensuring proper ventilation to prevent mildew and mould growth. Our insulation installation approach ensures the exterior wall insulation works seamlessly with your home’s new vapour barrier to ensure effective moisture control and low energy costs.
For added protection, you can apply closed-cell foam insulation in crawl spaces, basements, and other similar areas to prevent moisture problems. This foam spray insulation expands on contact and creates a strong seal.
Adding insulation to historical properties can be a game-changer for aesthetic appeal and energy efficiency. Most older homes were built before modern insulation standards. Thus, builders may have left gaps in walls and attics that may allow considerable heat loss. These issues increase energy costs and cause moisture problems in the attic.
Generally, loose-fill insulation is an effective way to address various insulation issues in older homes without major reconstruction. Its lightweight, flowable form reaches tight spaces like wall cavities and attic floors, ensuring thorough coverage. Our team ensures every inch is adequately sealed, especially around recessed lights and attic hatches. We also use spray foam or closed-cell foam insulation to reinforce problem areas.
As a property owner in Regina Beach, you appreciate the importance of keeping your house comfortable and warm, especially during the cold winter months. Insulation plays a key role in preventing heat loss and maintaining energy efficiency. That’s why we recommend you pay attention to the following signs that your house needs a second layer of insulation.
To ensure your house remains energy-efficient, let our insulation experts assess the current insulation and determine its performance. The assessment involves determining the insulation’s R-value and identifying cold spots in your home.
High-quality insulation can last many decades. For instance, high-quality batt insulation can last five to seven decades. That means at some point, a property with batt insulation will require an insulation upgrade or replacement. Depending on when the initial insulation was installed and the current performance of your attic insulation, we may recommend repairs or a complete overhaul.
Getting the most out of your insulation isn’t just about what type you use. It’s also about how it’s installed and sealed. Here’s how our team goes the extra mile to make your property's insulation perform at its best and last for decades.
Professional Installation
Perhaps you have found many guides online that provide a step-by-step insulation guide. Such guides also warn you to avoid disturbing vermiculite insulation and other mistakes. Unfortunately, this won't make you an insulation assessment and installation expert. DIY insulation repairs and installations often lead to improperly installed foam boards, damage to the existing layer, or wrongly applied spray foam insulation.
Luckily, our team follows detailed manufacturer instructions, adheres to all local codes, and ensures your insulation meets the top industry standards. We provide proper insulation installation, preventing ice dams and moist air from infiltrating your roof and other areas within your home.
Proper Sealing
Even the best insulation won’t work well if your home has unsealed gaps or cracks. Air leaks let in cold drafts and push out warm air, making your HVAC system work harder than it should. That’s why air sealing is a key part of every insulation job. We inspect for hidden leaks around windows, doors, wiring, and plumbing.
Getting R-Value Right
R-value tells you how well insulation can resist heat flow. A higher R-value means better insulation, but only if installed correctly. Poor installation, like compressed batts or uneven coverage, can reduce performance below the labelled rating. We carefully match the right insulation R-value to your home. Remember, insulation acts as a vapor retarder only when installed correctly.
The total cost of your insulation project will depend on the size of the area to be insulated, the type of insulation, labour cost, and the application or installation techniques. Therefore, the exact cost will vary from one project to another. Here are the estimated costs of different insulation options.
