Blown-in attic insulation from the company that looks at Spruce Grove out the shop window. Free attic check, measured depth, photographs, and one written number — no travel line, because there’s no travel.
Depth is the only number that matters, and it takes ten minutes with a ruler to establish. See exactly how we measure, what we blow and where the code numbers come from on the main attic insulation page.
We clean ducts on both sides of this town every week, which means we have been putting our heads through both kinds of attic hatch for twenty years. The split is unusually clean here.
Copperhaven, Greenbury, Harvest Ridge and Hawthorne were closed up under the current effective‑R requirement. Their attics are deep, even and young, and an honest inspection of one usually ends with us telling you to keep your money. What these homes are prone to is the opposite problem — a tight, well-sealed envelope pushing warm damp air into a very cold attic. That shows up as frost on the sheathing in February and stains on a bedroom ceiling in April, and it is not solved by more insulation.
Deer Park, Broxton Park, Woodhaven, Millgrove and Spruce Village are where the work actually is. These attics were done properly for their day and have simply been quietly losing depth ever since — loose-fill compacts under its own weight, and every winter of wind moving through the eaves takes a little more off the edges. Homes here routinely measure ten to twenty inches short of what the same house would be built to today, and they are the cheapest efficiency gain available to their owners.
Streets along the city’s western boundary sit open to the same dry summer wind off Parkland County that puts gravel-road dust in their ducts. In an attic, that wind does something more specific: it pushes in under the eaves and scours the insulation back from the perimeter, so the corners of the ceiling — where the heat loss shows first — end up the thinnest part of the attic. Baffles and a proper edge are half of what we’re fixing on those streets.
The trailer is minutes away, so a free attic check here is a short drive rather than a scheduling event. The furnace and duct side of the house is the other half of the same conversation about where your heat is going.
If your street was built before about 2005, there is very likely depth missing. If it was built in the last fifteen years, there probably isn’t — and we would rather drive over and tell you that for free than sell you insulation you don’t need.
Insulation is one of the easiest trades to fake, because nobody climbs up to check. Here is what we do, and what you get to see afterwards.
We take depth readings at several points across the attic — not one convenient spot by the hatch — because settling is never even. You get the readings and the photos before you get a price, whether or not you hire us.
Blown fiberglass doesn’t settle much and stays put in a windy attic. Blown cellulose fills tighter around framing and top plates and is recycled. Both hit the same R-value; we’ll tell you which suits your attic and then blow whichever you pick.
An attic needs air moving from the soffits upward. Insulation blown into that gap chokes the ventilation and causes exactly the moisture problem it was supposed to prevent. We keep the eave channel open, with baffles where they’re missing.
Marked rulers get left standing in the insulation and the finished depth is photographed. Anyone — you, a home inspector, a buyer’s agent five years from now — can put their head through the hatch and read what was installed.
Depth readings across the attic, a look at the eave gap, the hatch, the bath-fan ducting and the state of what’s already there. You get the photos and the numbers regardless of whether you book the work.
Square footage, the depth you have, the depth you’re going to, the material, and a single all-in price. Not a per-bag rate that moves once the truck is in your driveway.
Baffles at the eaves, a dam around the attic hatch so the new material doesn’t spill out every time you open it, and depth markers set across the span.
The hose runs through the hatch and the material goes in to the marked depth. Then the finished attic is photographed against the markers, and those photos are yours.
Bath and range fans that vent into the attic instead of through the roof, gaps around the hatch and ceiling penetrations, and any sign of moisture. Burying those problems under fourteen inches of new insulation makes them worse and hides them. If your attic has one, you’ll hear about it before we start rather than after — and if it’s outside what we do, we’ll say so and you can call the right trade.
Insulation is the one thing we don’t publish a flat rate for — and it’s worth explaining why, because everything else on this site has a number attached to it.
Measured depth at multiple points, photographs, and a straight answer about whether you actually need the work. No charge, no obligation, and you keep the numbers even if you hire somebody else.
Material, labour, baffles, hatch dam and cleanup in a single figure before we start. If the attic turns out different from the quote, we stop and talk to you — the price doesn’t quietly grow.
We quote the two depths side by side so you can see what the extra costs. Once you’ve paid for the crew and the trailer, the incremental depth is mostly material — it’s the cheapest R-value you’ll ever buy.
Per-bag pricing is how an insulation quote doubles. Bags are our problem. Depth across your ceiling is what you’re buying, and that’s what the number covers.
Because the honest answer depends on three things nobody knows over the phone: your attic’s square footage, how much insulation is up there now, and how evenly it’s spread. Anyone who gives you a firm insulation price without going up there is either guessing or planning to revise it later. We’d rather drive to your Spruce Grove address for free and tell you the truth — including, quite often, that your attic is fine and you should keep your money.
