Attic Insulation
Attic spray foam insulation plugs the gaps at the top of the house and adds a layer that holds heat where people live. In an older Kitchener home with a cold bedroom, the attic is the first place we look.

We foam outside walls during kitchen, bathroom and full-house renovations, and in additions while the framing is open. The quote shows the wall area, the foam type and the depth in each bay.
Many brick homes in Victoria Park, along the Civic Centre streets and in older parts of downtown went up when wall insulation was rare. Owners who open a wall for the first time often find nothing, or a thin layer of paper and sawdust. Those walls feel cold to the hand all winter.
Wall spray foam insulation applied against the brick backing seals the bay and adds real insulation. We match the foam to the wall and leave room where old masonry needs to dry.
Gaps around old window frames, outlet boxes and pipes are some of the leakiest spots in a house. Batts can hide those gaps but cannot seal them. Foam swells into the gaps and stops the air.
Each opening gets sealed as part of the wall work, so the room stops feeling drafty near the windows.
Inch for inch, closed cell packs the highest R-value and stiffens the wall. It suits shallow walls and spots where moisture is a worry. Open cell costs less, fills deep walls and quiets sound well.
On the wall spray foam insulation quote you will see the foam we suggest for each wall and the reason.
Kitchener's heritage districts can require a permit for changes to the outside of a building. Wall spray foam insulation is sprayed from inside, so the brick, trim and windows stay as they are. Check your own address with the City of Kitchener before work starts.
Open stud walls usually price out at $2.50 to $5 per foot of wall area. Shallow walls and closed cell foam sit toward the top of that range.

Basement spray foam insulation grips concrete and block and keeps cold, damp air away from the wall. A chilly basement becomes a room people actually use in winter.

Sealing the rim joist closes off the wooden band resting on your foundation, a spot that leaks more air than almost anywhere else downstairs. It is a short job that makes a basement far less drafty.

Knee wall spray foam insulation seals the short walls and sloped ceilings of an upstairs room tucked under the roof. It fixes the second floor that freezes in winter and bakes in summer.

Foam on the walls and band joist of a crawl space keeps cold and damp out from under the house. Floors above it warm up, and water lines down there stop freezing.
