Insulation is the one trade nobody sees when the job is finished — it is behind the drywall, above the ceiling and under the floor. So here is what it looks like while it is going in, across fifteen years of homes, cottages, garages, shops and commercial buildings around Barrie and Simcoe County.

Two jobs worth a closer look

The buildings where the insulation decisions actually mattered.

Finished kitchen and great room under a cathedral ceiling with exposed beams

Featured project

Custom home — cathedral ceilings, stone great room and a wine cellar

A large custom build with the details that make insulation difficult and make it matter: double-height stone walls, exposed beams, a cathedral ceiling with no depth to spare, walls of glass onto the pool deck, and a climate-controlled wine cellar that has to hold its temperature and humidity year-round.

Rooms like these are why we do not quote one product for a whole house. A cathedral ceiling has a fixed rafter depth and no room for a batt thick enough to reach code, so it needs R-value per inch. A wine room needs an airtight, vapour-controlled envelope or it will never hold its conditions. The big glazed walls put cold surfaces right beside living space, so every framing detail around them has to be sealed.

Featured project

Two-storey great room — full BIBS wall and ceiling system

A tall great room netted and blown wall-to-wall, including the cathedral ceiling and the framing around a two-storey chimney breast and window bank — the kind of geometry where cut-and-stuff batts quietly lose their rating.

Every one of those framed openings is a place where a batt has to be cut, and every cut is a chance to leave a gap. Blowing the cavity to density behind netting fills what is actually there — around the bracing, the wiring and the odd stud spacing that tall walls always have.
