Markham’s housing arrived in waves — Milliken and German Mills in the 1970s and 80s, Unionville’s estates through the 80s and 90s, then the big master-planned communities: Berczy, Wismer, Cornell, Greensborough. Each wave got the code-minimum insulation of its day, and code minimum in 1995 was roughly half of today’s R-60 standard. Add decades of settling and most Markham attics we measure are sitting far below what the house needs.
The symptoms Markham homeowners call us about are consistent: second floors that roast in July and freeze in January, ice at the roof edge after every snowfall, and renovated main floors full of pot lights quietly pumping warm air into the attic. All three trace back to the same two fixes — seal the ceiling, then insulate to R-60.
Being headquartered on John Street means Markham inspections are easy to schedule — and the documented projects below are from directly neighbouring communities, in the same builders’ housing stock.

Blown-in fiberglass to R-60, full removals and rebuilds, insulated hatches — quoted flat after a photographed inspection.
Pot lights, plumbing stacks, duct boots and top plates sealed before any insulation goes in — the step that makes R-60 actually perform.
Botanical cleaning and spore removal, wood restoration, and a protective sealant against regrowth — see a full remediation in our case studies.
Cold floors over the garage and chilly basements get the same treatment: seal first, then insulate properly.
Insulating your attic to R-50 or better qualifies for a rebate through Ontario’s home energy rebate program — no energy assessment required for attic-only projects. We confirm your exact amount at the free inspection and file all the paperwork for you.
