Free Attic Estimate · Greater Edmonton

How much insulation is actually in your attic?

Cold bedrooms, icicles at the eaves, a furnace that never seems to stop? Enter the year your home was built and a few details. We'll estimate what's up there today, how far short of R-40 or R-50 it is, and what that's costing you every winter — then print your report. Often the answer is that you're fine.

The attic is roughly the size of your main floor for bungalows, bi-levels and two-storeys. Leave out the garage.

Target R-value

New homes in the Edmonton area are built to R-50 or better. R-40 is a solid, budget-friendly upgrade; once the crew is there, the extra depth to R-50 is mostly material.

Material to blow in

Both reach the same R-value. Fibreglass resists settling and doesn't mind a draughty attic; cellulose packs tighter around framing and is recycled. We install whichever you pick.

How we estimate — and why a ruler beats a calculator

We start from what attics were typically built with in the Edmonton area for each era, then apply settling: loose-fill compacts under its own weight and wind at the eaves scours the edges, so an attic blown to R-40 in 1998 often reads like R-25 today. If you enter a measured depth we use that instead — it's far more accurate. Either way, the number that goes on your quote is the one we measure at several points across your attic, photographed, for free.

BuiltTypical as-builtWhat we usually find

Heat-loss savings assume Edmonton's heating season (about 5,300 degree-days), a 90% efficient gas furnace, and your energy price — settings you can see in the report. They're a planning range, not a promise.
