What Every Vernon Attic Upgrade Includes

  • A free on-site assessment. We measure your current R-value, check for moisture, pests, and air leaks, and give you a clear quote before any work begins.
  • Removal of damaged or compressed insulation where it needs to come out.
  • Blown-in insulation to R-50 or higher. Formaldehyde-free blown-in fibreglass that resists rot, mildew, and settling.
  • A lifetime guarantee against settling under normal conditions. If it settles, we top it up to the installed R-value at no cost.
  • A clean site. Your home is left the way we found it.

Why Vernon Attics Need More Insulation

Vernon winters are colder than Kelowna's, and heat rises straight to the attic. In many Vernon homes built before the 1990s, the insulation up there is R-12 to R-20, a fraction of the R-50 or higher recommended today. The result is cold upstairs rooms, a furnace that never seems to stop, and heating bills that climb every January.

An under-insulated attic causes a second winter problem: ice dams. Warm air escaping into the attic melts the snow on your roof from below. The water runs down to the cold eaves, refreezes, and backs up under the shingles. A properly insulated attic keeps the roof deck cold and the heat inside where you paid for it.

Summer works the same way in reverse. Vernon afternoons regularly pass 30°C, and an attic that bakes all day pushes that heat into the bedrooms below. A full attic upgrade keeps the upstairs comfortable in both seasons. Typical homeowners see at least 10% savings on their home's energy costs after an attic upgrade, based on our project experience. See our blown-in insulation page for full material details.

Attic Insulation Rebates in Vernon

Home Renovation Rebate Program (HRRP): the program pays $0.02 per square foot for each R-value point you add to your attic, up to $900. For example, a 1,200 sq ft attic topped up from R-12 to R-50 adds 38 points, which reaches the $900 maximum.

Pair your attic with a second upgrade, such as crawlspace or wall insulation, and you may qualify for an additional multi-upgrade bonus. HRRP is open to homeowners at any income level, and insulation must be installed by a Home Performance Contractor Network member like us. We confirm what your home qualifies for at your free estimate.

Frequently Asked Questions About Attic Insulation in Vernon

01

What R-value do I need for my attic in Vernon?

R-50 or higher is the recommended level for Vernon's climate. Many older homes have R-12 to R-20. We measure yours during the free estimate.

02

Can attic insulation help with ice dams?

Yes. Most ice dams start with heat escaping into the attic. Bringing your attic to R-50 or higher, along with sealing the gaps where warm air leaks in, keeps the roof cold and reduces melting from below.

03

How long does an attic upgrade take in Vernon?

Most standard Vernon attic jobs are done in a single day.

04

Do you need to remove my old insulation?

Not always. If the existing insulation is dry and clean, we add new insulation on top. If it is damp, contaminated, or damaged by pests, we remove it first. See Insulation Removal.

05

Do you serve Coldstream, Okanagan Landing, and the BX?

Yes. We serve every Vernon neighbourhood and the surrounding communities. See our Vernon page for the full list.
