Attic Inspection

In a typical residential home, some 40% of your winter heating and summer cooling is escaping through the attic and roof.

That’s simply a waste of valuable energy and a waste of money. It may be happening because the attic insulation has deteriorated – or the original installation was inadequate – or worse, the attic and roof are allowing air to leak in and out of the cavity. In most homes, the attic is out of sight, and consequently out of mind.


As such, a proper attic inspection is critical in identifying all types of problems associated with home energy issues.

How Does an Attic Inspection Work?

A thorough attic inspection will take a serious look at all of the physical elements that are contained in the attic and roof cavity. This would include the home’s overall ventilation; the condition of existing insulation materials, & all of the structural components.

The whole idea with an attic inspection is to identify problem areas before they become big problems. It’s the best way to identify air leaks, mold growth, and moisture conditions. And it’s the most effective way to assess why energy bills are higher than they should be.

During an inspections, techncians will assess the quality of your attic insulation in Toronto and decide the best way to restore and maintain energy-efficiency.

Choosing Between DIY and an Expert

attic inspection work

Choosing a DIY approach for attic inspection might be an option for some homeowners, but nothing can compare to an inspection expert who has the tools, experience and expertise. Simply put, attic insulation professionals know where to look and know what to look for.

Indeed, the attic should be inspected periodically just from a maintenance point of view. It’s a good way to diagnose potential problems and therefore avoid costly repairs once the damage is done. Some professionals recommend inspecting twice a year (spring and fall).

Main Attic Inspection Checklist Items

There are certain things that professionals include as part of a comprehensive attic inspection. All of these components
should be addressed and documented in order to provide the homeowner with a good overview, & a good plan of action.

  • Ventilation Signs of inadequate ventilation would include condensation and mold growth
  • Insulation Signs of compacted insulation, insufficient air sealing, and even drafty areas
  • Water Leaks Water stains, rotting wood, and mold growth all point to some roof leakage
  • Animals/Pests Animal droppings, bird nests, and insect infestation all damage insulation
  • Air Ventilation Air vents and exhaust ducts should be allowing for optimum air circulation

In-depth Inspection of Attic Insulation

In most parts of Canada, extreme weather conditions persist in summer and winter. It means that attic insulation in Mississauga and the entire GTA must provide both indoor comfort and energy efficiency. Whatever the insulation product installed, the condition and performance of the material should be checked seasonally.

Because attic insulation is rated with an R-Value, a qualified attic inspector can determine if you insulation is doing its job properly or if upgrades and retrofits may be required.

The idea is to optimize performance so that winter heating costs and summer cooling costs are managed.

Very efficient service from quote to the completion of the job 2 days later. Thanks to EcoComfort, we now have baffles in our two attic spaces as well as insulation that went from extremely poor (builder's quality of 4") to R60. We're extremely happy with the work done and would not hesitate to recommend EcoComfort. Thank you very much!!

From inspection, quote, job, clean up and final inspection of the finished work, Eco Comfort Insulation did a fantastic job. They answered all my questions in detail during the initial consult, and did a great job. They cleaned up properly, and left after I was satisfied. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to increase their attic insulation. Thank you.

I'm very pleased with EcoComfort. I called them for an attic insulation top up. After the first phone call, someone came to have a quick look at my attic. A few weeks later, two men and their truck came and increased my attic insulation from R21 to R60 with blown-in cellulose. I appreciate that they use Canadian materials (Climatizer Plus). The work only took a few hours and they left everything just as they found it, nice and clean. My house feels a little cozier now with the added insulation. Thanks a lot!

I had a wonderful experience with the Ecocomfort team. I originally hired them to top up my builder-grade insulation from 8 inches all the way up to 24 inches which is approx R-70 and they did a fantastic job. A huge shout-out to the entire team including Arnold, Patrick, Daniel, Louis, Adam, and Paul. Every one of them was friendly, professional and efficient.

Very unusual these days to find a home contractor who in fact lives up to or exceeds their claims and online revues. Wojtek was prompt, courteous, extremely knowledgeable and very patient.........he answered all my questions. Patrick, his brother and his two colleagues arrived on time, were careful and tidy, did an excellent job and cleaned up beautifully. I was skeptical of the purported benefits of adding attic insulation but during this recent late summer heat wave I have not required air conditioning during the day and only a bit overnight. Aside from potential future energy savings, the benefits were immediately evident. I would highly recommend Ecocomfort to anyone considering anything they do.

For 800 sq ft attics - EcoComfort Insulation price was HALF what 2 other insulation contractors quoted me. Very professional starting from the quote (Wojtek) - who explained the process, to the guys who did installation, very efficient and professional, - vacuumed and cleaned afterwards - can't wait to see how it retains the heat on these colder evenings. Highly recommend them.

Tom and co. were amazing!! They just completed the job within 3hrs and I had zero insulation to begin with so it was a big job. They were truly professional, cleaned up after the job and walked me through the inspection. Ontop of that, they also helped fix a small leak in the roof which they noticed during the job!! That's service beyond and above and truly appreciated!! Looking forward now to having warmth in the bedrooms this coming winter and would definitely recommend EcoComfort to anyone! You guys are awesome...

We had a great experience with EcoComfort. Arnold attended our home to provide us with a quote, and he explained the whole process and answered any questions we had. The insulation itself went well- two workers came to do the job. They cleaned up afterwards. We already notice a difference with our second floor feeling less hot in the summer heat now that we have our attic insulation done!

I hired EcoComfort Insulation after researching the more labour-intensive option to replace the batting by hand. It was like a mountain range of pink batts in the attic which was honestly a bit terrifying. Patrick sent a crew with a truck which sucked the old, dusty, pink stuff out and blew in new R60+ cellulose. I am so happy I went with this installation method and it was well worth spending the extra money.

I had Eco Comfort in recently to blow in new insulation after we had recently taken down and installed a new ceiling. Everything went very well. Everything from getting the quote, scheduling the work, and the team coming out went very smoothly. Everyone was very friendly and the crew did a great job. I would definitely recommend them to anyone.

The guys did a spectacular job in removing the old insulation and replacing it with cellulose. They were friendly, efficient and professional. They also installed a bathroom roof vent for better air circulation AND installed weatherstripping for our attic hatch. After work was done, they cleaned up the minimal dust that occurred and left our place as if they were never there. This company provides awesome service. Hire them!
