Even recently built homes in Bowmanville can lack enough Attic insulation. Many Bowmanville homeowners are surprised to learn they can lose as much as 25% of their Heating & Air conditioning through the attic. Another interesting fact most homeowners discover is most homes have around 8 inches or less of attic insulation.
If your Bowmanville home only has about 8 inches of insulation, it means it has around a R22 rating. The R rating is how well heat loss is prevented. In Ontario, the recommended amount of attic insulation is between R50 and R60.
Logik Roofing & Insulation helps Bowmanville homeowners improve the comfort of their homes, as well as help them cut their heating and cooling costs. Some of the benefits our customers enjoy by improving the insulation include:
The primary benefit of having our Bowmanville attic insulation contractors install more insulation is helping you reduce energy loss by up to 80% in the attic!

Here at Logik Roofing & Insulation, we feature premium products, with a minimum R value of R50, up to R60. We understand how attic systems work and can help you determine the most appropriate solution for your home.

Retrofitting your attic by improving the insulation can help save our valuable energy resources. Energy conservation helps preserve current resources at a cost lower than having to produce new energy resources.
When you improve the insulation in your attic, you are making your home more energy efficient. This means you are also reducing greenhouse gas emissions because you are using less energy to heat your home. Not only are you doing something good for the environment, but you are also saving on your home’s energy bills.
The more attic insulation you have, the more comfortable your home will be. A correctly insulated attic helps save energy year round by keeping it warmer in winter and cooler in the summer.
Proper ventilation is essential in maximizing the full potential of your insulation. These two things go hand in hand in ensuring that there is proper air circulation throughout your attic. By doing this you ensure that your hot air will escape in the summer keeping your home cooler and moisture will escape in the winter reducing condensation buildup.
Roof vents and soffit baffles work together with Attic insulation to ensure you have a properly functioning attic. That’s why we offer a FREE attic inspection before any work is performed – we want to ensure that the most appropriate ventilation systems are installed throughout. We offer a wide range of options – from soffit vents, to installing rafter vents, to turbine and solar vents.
Insulation removal is not an easy task, but can be required for many different reasons including, Animal infestations, smoke damage, water damage, major renovations or mold.
Whatever the reason, we offer efficient and safe removal services for all blown in and fiberglass batt insulation. At Logik Roofing & Insulation we use the industry leading techniques to ensure that there isn’t any dust or mess in your home and that the space is ready for the next stage of the process.
We use a custom, high-powered vacuum, connected to a long hose, that can quickly and safely suck up all unsafe dust, insulation and debris. The waste is collected in a large-volume filter bag, which is designed specifically for insulation material. We haul away the insulation material. This is a safe and efficient process.
If you have blown-in insulation material that needs to be removed, it’s important to remember that blown-in insulation makes it difficult to see where you are walking. This makes removing insulation yourself very dangerous. It’s best to leave it to the pros with the experience and equipment it takes to get the job done quickly, completely and safely. Give Logik Roofing & Insulation a call today if you need your attic insulation removed.
Fibreglass batt insulation is a highly reliable product that is commonly installed on basement walls. Professionally installed, fibreglass batts are strategically placed into a given space so that a protective thermal “blanket” is created. A vapour barrier must be installed in addition to the insulation.
Fibreglass batts are non-corrosive and non-combustible. The material is asbestos-free, odour-free, and air-quality certified. In a basement space, Fibreglass batts ensure good long-term performance, and an excellent return-on-investment based on your annual savings on heating and cooling costs.
Fibreglass blanket insulation is an insulating system designed to insulate concrete basements to code and is an ideal method if you don’t have studs up on your basement walls. Logik Roofing & Insulation will wrap your basement walls with blanket insulation. You can think of it as wrapping your home in a nice, warm blanket for the winter that works just as well to keep the cool air in during the summer!
Draft Proofing / Air Sealing your home is very important to help improve your home’s energy consumption and can save 10-15% on energy bills. It is also an effective way to limit drafts and make your home feel more comfortable!
Dryer exhaust vents, kitchen exhaust fans and bathroom exhaust fans are designed to pump moisture OUT of your home. So make absolutely sure that they terminate outside your home and NEVER in the attic.
Roof leaks will often lead to a small, localized area of attic mold near where the leak is occurring.
