Why Burlington Families Trust Canada Energy Solution for Attic Insulation
Many homes built in Aldershot, Roseland and Freeman from the 1950s to 1970s still have their original attic insulation, well below today's R-60 standard. Lake Ontario winds and cold air from the Niagara Escarpment add to the heating demand. A poorly insulated attic can account for up to 40% of winter heat loss. Canada Energy Solution has helped over 15,000 GTA families, including hundreds across Halton Region, upgrade to Owens Corning certified blown-in insulation and cut heating costs by 20–40%.

Burlington Attic Insulation FAQ
Yes. Most Burlington detached, semi-detached, and row townhomes qualify for the Ontario HRS rebate program, provided the home is your primary residence, heated by an eligible fuel (natural gas, electricity, oil, or propane), and the attic is upgraded to at least R-50. Canada Energy Solution is a certified participating contractor and handles all paperwork on your behalf. See the attic insulation rebate options before deciding which upgrades to include.
Most Burlington homes are completed in a single day. Our crew typically arrives in the morning and finishes by afternoon, with full cleanup included. Larger homes or homes requiring removal of old insulation may take up to two days.
For Burlington's cold winters and humid summers, we recommend blown-in cellulose or fiberglass insulation to achieve R-60. Both materials provide excellent thermal resistance against Lake Ontario winds and the colder air that settles along the Niagara Escarpment, and both qualify for HRS rebates.
Almost certainly. Homes built in the 1950s–70s in areas like Aldershot, Roseland, and Freeman were typically insulated to only R-12 or less, and that insulation has settled further over 60 years. A free 20-minute attic check will tell you exactly what you have and what an R-60 upgrade would save.
Yes. We pre-approve every home before work begins, submit all HRS paperwork on your behalf, and guarantee rebate approval for qualifying homes. If a qualifying home is denied, we credit the rebate amount back to you.
Yes. We safely remove old, contaminated, or pest-damaged insulation, air-seal the attic floor, and install fresh Owens Corning certified blown-in insulation to R-60. This usually takes one to two days. See our attic insulation removal cost guide for what affects the quote.

Cover quite lot of the cost
My 20 year old house had tempriture problem on some of the bedroom for many years, though it's time for us to top up the insulation in the attic, there comes John the inspector, I got his number from my colleague, he came and check my attic the very next day I called him and luckly he found out I can be qualified for the government rebate program to cover quite lot of the cost for me, he patiently walked me through the details and helped me do the application.

Very courteous and professional
I got inspector John's number from my friend who have had his service before. He responsed very quickly, called me the same date, and came visit my house the next day. He was very courteous and professional, checked many places in my house and dignosed where the problems are coming from, turns out I only had less than 7" of the insulation on my attic, and its unevenly distributed everywhere, even saw..
- Keyvan Mosharraf -
Increased to 21 inches
I had my attic insulation increased to 21 inches last weekend. I was skeptical at first when Jakey told me about the numberous benefits of increased attic insulation. Right now, I think the upper rooms feels much warmer and the furnace seems to be running less as well.

How Much Does Attic Insulation Cost in Burlington?
What Affects the Price in Burlington?
Burlington has 1950s–70s bungalows in Aldershot and Roseland, 1980s–90s homes in Millcroft and newer builds in Alton Village. Each can need a different amount of insulation work. We base your quote on the home's age and attic layout.
- Attic size: Typical Burlington detached homes range from 800 to 1,400 sq ft of attic space
- Current insulation depth: Many older Burlington homes have original insulation from the 1950s–70s that has settled well below code
- Material choice: Cellulose blown-in is popular in Burlington for its cost-effectiveness and eco-friendly properties
- Accessibility: Older homes near the Brant Street corridor sometimes have tighter attic access requiring additional setup
- Attic condition: Homes near Lake Ontario or at the foot of the Niagara Escarpment may show moisture issues that need remediation before insulation
After Ontario HRS rebates, most Burlington families pay little to nothing out of pocket. Get your free quote to find out exactly what you'll save.

Best Insulation Types for Burlington Homes
We blow loose-fill fiberglass or cellulose into the attic with specialized equipment. It fits around wiring, pipes and uneven framing, making it our most effective option for existing homes with these obstacles.
Blown-in insulation is our most-requested service across the GTA. Installation is quick, and the loose material reaches awkward spaces that are difficult to cover with batts.
- Best for: Most GTA homes, attic top-ups, quick installation
- R-Value: 3.0 – 4.3 per inch
- Typical cost: $1,750 – $1,950
? Not sure which type is right for your home? Our inspector will assess your attic conditions and recommend the best material, at no cost to you.
Batts are pre-cut panels of fiberglass or mineral wool that fit between joists and studs. They work well in attics with regular framing and few obstructions, helping reduce both heat loss and noise.
You can choose widths and thicknesses to suit your framing. Compared with standard fiberglass, mineral wool batts provide better fire resistance and sound control.
- Best for: New builds, standard-framed attics, noise reduction
- R-Value: 2.9 – 4.3 per inch
- Typical cost: $1,900 – $2,150
Spray foam expands after application to fill gaps and cracks. It has the highest R-value per inch and the strongest air and moisture barrier of the insulation options listed here.
Closed-cell spray foam is denser and provides a better barrier against air and moisture. Open-cell foam costs less and suits interior applications.
- Best for: New builds, maximum energy savings, moisture-prone areas
- R-Value: 5 – 6 per inch
- Typical cost: $1,900 – $2,100
Location of Residential Insulation
Essential for energy efficiency, attic insulation reduces heat loss, lowers utility bills, and maintains a comfortable home environment year-round.
Wall Insulation
Crucial for thermal regulation, wall insulation minimizes energy transfer, enhances indoor comfort, and reduces heating and cooling costs.
Floor Insulation
Floor insulation is key for maintaining consistent temperatures, reducing noise, and preventing heat loss, especially in homes with exposed underfloor areas.
Ceiling Insulation
Ceiling insulation plays a vital role in retaining heat within living spaces, reducing energy consumption, and improving overall home comfort.
Insulating basements is essential for moisture control, temperature stability, and energy efficiency, particularly in homes with below-ground living areas.
House Insulation Types
Insulation materials, including blown-in, foam board, batt, roll, spray foam, and radiant barriers, significantly enhance energy efficiency and comfort in buildings.
Blown-In Insulation
Blown-in insulation, also known as loose-fill insulation, is made of small particles of fiber, foam, or other materials. It's ideal for adding insulation to existing finished areas, irregularly shaped areas, and around obstructions. This type is typically applied using a special blowing device and is perfect for attics and wall cavities.
Batt Insulation
Batt insulation consists of pre-cut panels of fiberglass or mineral wool insulation. It's commonly used in spaces with standard spacing between joists and studs, such as walls, floors, and ceilings. Easy to handle and install, it's a popular choice for DIY projects and offers effective thermal and acoustic insulation.
Roll Insulation
Similar to batt insulation but available in long rolls, roll insulation can be cut and trimmed to fit various spaces. Made primarily of fiberglass, it's suitable for large areas without obstructions, like floors and ceilings. Roll insulation is a cost-effective solution for covering large areas quickly.
Spray Foam Insulation
Spray foam insulation is a liquid foam that expands and hardens upon application, creating a tight seal against air and moisture. It's excellent for sealing gaps, cracks, and voids, providing superior thermal insulation and air sealing. Available in open-cell and closed-cell varieties, it's ideal for a range of applications, including walls, roofs, and around windows and doors.
Foam Board Insulation
Foam board insulation is a rigid panel used to insulate walls, floors, and ceilings. Made from polystyrene, polyisocyanurate, or polyurethane, it provides high insulation value with minimal thickness. Ideal for reducing heat conduction through structural elements like wood and steel studs, it's often used in both new construction and retrofit projects.
Radiant Barrier Insulation
Radiant barrier insulation is designed to reflect heat rather than absorb it. Made from a reflective material like aluminum foil, it's typically installed in attics to reduce summer heat gain and lower cooling costs. This type of insulation is most effective in hot climates and works by reflecting radiant heat away from the living space.
Attic Insulation in Burlington: Starting from $0.99/sqft
In Burlington, poor attic insulation is likely adding $150–$250 to your heating and cooling bills each month.
If you live in Aldershot, Roseland, Freeman or along the Brant Street corridor, your home may still have R-12 to R-20 attic insulation. Most homes in these areas were built between 1950 and 1980. Today's Ontario code minimum is R-50, so the original insulation can leave upstairs bedrooms cold in January and too hot in August.
