Cold air sneaking in

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.

Winter Challenges in Government Road

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.

Performance in Government Road

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.
