Fiberglass Removal and New Cellulose - London, ON

We removed all the old fiberglass insulation. Why? It's not the correct insulation type, for a variety of reasons. Blown-in cellulose is the appropriate application. Along with that, the pipe and wire penetrations that come into the attic are not air-tight. We need to access all of these point to ensure heat loss is at a minimum! This insulation is also full of mouse droppings (mice love pink fiberglass).
Once the removal, air sealing and new baffles are completed, the new blown-in cellulose can be installed. 
Beautiful work here by our crew for this London homeowner. 

New Build Spray Foam - McGregor, ON

Before

The home owner built a new detached garage and wanted the entire structure insulated.

After

Advanced Basement Systems applied a 3”, 2lb closed-cell spray foam on the walls and attic decking to provide proper air/vapour barrier and high R-value insulation.

Insulation Removal and Replaced - Windsor, ON

This is another attic that has fiberglass insulation in the joists. We know that this isn't an ideal product for the attic- not to mention mice love fiberglass insulation! After we removed the insulation, our team used closed-cell foam to seal top plate, wire and pipe penetrations to ensure minimal heat loss! Finally, we returned the following day to blow-in new 17" R60 cellulose insulation. We also added air sealing around the hatch access.

Great job Logan, Shane and Tyler in this home!

Attic Insulation Upgrade in Petrolia, ON

Before:

Many homes were built using fiberglass batt insulation in the attic. It does add insulation R value but not to the recommended amount for Ontario weather. Adding more insulation on top of the old may not give you the results you need to keep the home comfortable. A continuous vapour barrier under the insulation is a vital component to keep warm air in and cold air out.

 

After:

Advanced Basement Systems will remove old insulation, then seal all openings in the vapour barrier before adding the required amount of blown in cellulose. 17 inches of cellulose blown in insulation is the recommended amount to bring the R-value up to R60.

If your home has wide temperature swings or the HVAC systems runs often, this could be a sign of attic insulation issues.

 

Give Advanced Basement Systems a call for complete home insulation upgrades.

Hot Roof Spray Foam Insulation - Thamesville, ON

Before

The owners converted and existing garage into a workshop and wanted to use the space all year and requested the hot roof method, in which there is no attic and the roof sheathing is exposed and spray foamed. 

After

Spray foam insulation was used as an efficient way to provide insulation. The foam will add a vapour barrier and required R-value to the space. The Advanced Basement Systems team has been trained and are certified to work from heights and can get to the peak points in the building.
