Serving North York

Spray Foam Insulation North York

North York mixes post-war bungalows, infill rebuilds and the light-industrial strips along Finch and Steeles, and all three need different insulation answers.

Bungalows and Basement Apartments

The classic North York bungalow leaks at the rim joists and the uninsulated basement, which matters twice when that basement is a legal apartment. Closed cell foam on the foundation walls warms the unit and controls the moisture that older block walls wick.

Commercial Along the Corridors

The Finch and Steeles employment strips are classic closed cell territory: steel buildings that sweat in spring and freeze in January. See our commercial spray foam service or call (647) 692-4276 for a free estimate.

Wherever your building sits in North York, the free estimate comes first and the written scope governs the work.

Post-War Bungalows and Backsplits

North York's residential core is dominated by post-war bungalows, backsplits and sidesplits, built when attic insulation meant whatever met the code of the day and air sealing was not part of the conversation. Those attics usually still hold their original material, settled well below its starting depth, over a ceiling full of unsealed penetrations.

Split Levels Make Awkward Attics

A backsplit or sidesplit does not have one continuous attic; it has several at different levels, separated by short kneewalls and transitions. Those transitions are where the insulation almost always stops and where the heat almost always escapes. Treating only the largest attic area leaves most of the problem in place, which is why these houses need looking at rather than quoting by square footage.

Basement Apartments and Second Units

A great many North York houses carry a second unit below, which changes both the heating pattern and the sound expectations. Insulating between units addresses airborne noise as well as the temperature difference between a tenant's thermostat and the owner's, and it is worth scoping deliberately rather than treating as an afterthought.
