The order of work in a newer house
With 61.4% of homes built since 2001, many attics are young, but the work follows the same order as anywhere else. Ceiling air leaks are sealed first. A baffle goes in at every soffite, ducts are routed outside, and the hatch is insulated with weatherstripping. The insulation is blown in last, with safety clearances kept around the chimney, light fixtures and ducts.

Hi! Pick a question and we’ll answer right here.
Choose a question
- My house in Sainte-Marthe-sur-le-Lac was built in the 2010s: is LogisVert possible?
- Possible, if the house is heated mainly with electricity and the roof reaches at least R-50 over its whole surface. Isolation Cornerstone does the roof insulation and the caulking in the same project, and Hydro-Québec decides.
- LogisVert vs. Rénoclimat: which one applies to attic insulation?
- LogisVert, from Hydro-Québec, covers roof insulation done together with caulking, in a house heated mainly with electricity. Rénoclimat, from the Québec government, requires an energy evaluation before and after the work, and can complement LogisVert when the work is separate. Each programme alone decides whether you qualify.
- I think there is vermiculite in my attic. What should I do?
- Leave it alone, and don’t go up to check. Vermiculite can contain asbestos, according to Health Canada. Describe to Isolation Cornerstone what you saw, even from a distance: the crew comes to look at it, and it comes out before any insulation goes in.
