Insulation Contractors Available in Vancouver – Gale Contractor Services

Attics are areas that are particularly susceptible to extreme temperature swings. Without proper insulation, an attic can be an expensive source of energy loss. Gale Contractor Services can install additional insulation in an attic to reduce heat loss, utility bills, and wear and tear on heating and cooling systems. Attic doors should also be insulated to protect against unwanted air transfer. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, roughly 80% of older homes can benefit from additional attic insulation.

Existing homes and businesses in Vancouver with closed ceilings and walls can be lacking in insulation. However, it’s often not feasible or cost-effective to remove entire walls to install new insulation. Gale Contractor Services’s insulation contractors can drill a small hole into the wall or ceiling and then blow insulation into the cavity behind it. This insulation can be used to seal cracks and gaps around pipes, cables, doors, and more.

Interior and exterior walls, particularly in older homes and businesses in the Vancouver area, are often lacking in insulation. Too little insulation can result in noise transfer between rooms and decreased energy efficiency. The Gale Contractor Services team can evaluate your current levels of insulation and make recommendations for installing additional wall insulation where it is needed.

Crawl spaces have areas that can and should be addressed with insulation. Rim joists should be insulated and air sealed; this perimeter area is frequently a source of air infiltration. Gale Contractor Services can install Insulation and vapor barriers along the floor, even if it is dirt. Insulation should also be added along the crawl space’s exterior foundation walls.

Different floors throughout a home or business in Vancouver require different types of insulation. Floors that should be insulated include: the floor above a garage, the floor above a basement, basement floors, the floor above a crawl space, the floor above a cantilever, and more. Gale Contractor Services installs floor insulation to make all types of buildings more comfortable.

Existing buildings in Vancouver, particularly older buildings with closed ceilings, are often lacking in insulation. Adding insulation in the ceilings of living spaces, garages, and basements can help increase soundproofing and indoor comfort levels. Gale Contractor Services also installs insulation in cathedral ceilings. We also install ceiling insulation to help provide fire protection between floors.

Older homes and businesses in the Vancouver area may have some insulation installed, but over time, that insulation may underperform due to a build up of dirt, dust, and moisture. When older insulation becomes less energy efficient, insulation removal is an important first step before replacing the insulation with newer, more energy efficient materials.
