That climbing bill isn’t just about your furnace working too hard. Cold air sneaks through uninsulated gaps, making it hard to heat your home evenly while moisture follows the chill inside.
A proper thermal wrap seals the exterior against damp winters, reduces street noise, and protects siding from thermal stress, extending its lifespan without cracking or warping.

Stop Heat Loss
When heat escapes through your walls, your furnace works harder. Exterior insulation wraps your home in a thermal layer, stopping energy loss before it starts. It improves your wall assembly for better performance.
We attach rigid insulation boards over your existing sheathing, then cover them with a weather-resistant barrier and new siding. This continuous layer stops thermal bridging through studs, so every room stays warmer with less energy.
In Government Road, homes deal with damp, cold winters that challenge any building’s structure. Older wood-frame houses often lack the insulation needed to keep heating costs low.
Moisture from the nearby inlet and changing temperatures can damage siding and cause mould. Exterior insulation adds a protective layer that keeps your walls safe from cold air and moisture.
Installation for Government Road
For the damp conditions in Government Road, we use rigid foam boards that resist moisture. Extruded polystyrene (XPS) and polyisocyanurate provide strong support and low water absorption. This keeps the insulation working well during wet weather. We install these boards over the existing sheathing after putting on a water-resistive barrier.
We add vertical furring strips to create a gap behind the new siding. This gap allows moisture to drain and dry. At windows and doors, we use flashing tapes and metal head flashings to direct water outward. The insulation is secured through the furring strips into the studs with long screws, ensuring a strong attachment without compressing the foam.
In Government Road’s marine climate, exterior insulation moves the dew point outside the sheathing. This prevents condensation inside the wall cavity. Keeping the wood framing dry reduces the risk of rot and mold, which are common in older homes exposed to rain from the inlet.
A ventilated rainscreen behind the siding allows water to drain and helps dry the cladding. The continuous insulation layer also acts as a thermal break over the studs. This stops thermal bridging that can create cold spots and energy loss. We carefully detail all openings and transitions with proper flashing to keep a continuous drainage plane.
Building Permits for Government Road
The City of Burnaby requires a building permit for exterior renovations that affect the building envelope, like adding or upgrading exterior insulation. Your application must include letters from a qualified building envelope professional. Inspections are needed after you install insulation and the vapour barrier, before any work is covered up.
Work must follow local noise bylaws. These limit construction-related noise to specific hours: generally from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Monday to Friday and from 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Saturday. No construction noise is allowed on Sundays and statutory holidays. Continuous construction noise must not exceed 85 dBA at 15.2 m in residential areas.
Projects that add or change exterior insulation must have a building permit and pass inspections for insulation and the vapour barrier. If you apply for a permit after September 1, 2019, an air-tightness (blower door) test is required before the insulation inspection.
We recently finished an exterior insulation project for a school in Government Road. The school had high heating costs because of poor insulation, which affected their budget and comfort. To fix this, we installed quality exterior insulation that meets local building codes. This has improved the school’s energy efficiency. Now, the school has lower heating costs and a more comfortable space for students and staff.
Local Community Support
We often do exterior insulation work in Government Road. It is a regular part of our service. We drive up West Georgia Street, pass Downtown Vancouver, and usually arrive in about 25 to 35 minutes, depending on traffic. When we get materials for a job in Government Road, we support the local community by buying from suppliers like Pro-West Sales Ltd. and Standard Building Supplies. This helps keep more of your project spending in Burnaby.
High heating bills and cold spots in Government Road often come from uninsulated walls. We install exterior insulation by putting a weather-resistant barrier over the sheathing. Then we add rigid foam boards like XPS or polyiso and a ventilated drainage gap before the new siding. This creates a continuous thermal break. In this marine climate, the insulation moves the dew point outward, which helps prevent mold, rot, and moisture damage. Burnaby needs a building permit, a blower door test for permits issued after September 1, 2019, and follows local noise bylaws. Material costs range from about CAD0.80 to CAD1.50 per square foot for fiberglass and CAD2.00 to CAD4.00 for extruded polystyrene board, depending on R-value. We can reach Government Road from Downtown Vancouver in about 25 to 35 minutes.
