Cold air leaking through your exterior walls makes your home uncomfortable and forces your heating system to work harder. This means more money spent each month.
Exterior insulation in this area also provides moisture protection for your home’s walls. In Metro Vancouver’s wet climate, persistent rain and humidity can damage wall assemblies and lead to costly repairs.

Benefits of Exterior Insulation
Cold air that seeps through your walls needs a better barrier, not a furnace boost. Insulating the outside of your home stops that airflow before it reaches your living space.
By installing rigid insulation panels directly against the sheathing, we create a continuous thermal wrap. This stops drafts and cold spots that older homes often have, and it also reduces street noise. Insulation in Vancouver using this method makes a big difference in comfort and energy costs.
In Government Road, damp air and older homes make exterior insulation very important. Many properties here were built before modern thermal standards, leaving walls exposed to the wet, windy weather from the Strait.
Moisture combined with poor insulation often leads to cold surfaces and high heating bills. Installing exterior insulation not only blocks drafts but also protects the siding from rain damage, helping your home’s exterior last longer.
Insulation Details for Government Road
Paragon Exteriors uses rigid mineral wool panels to insulate the outside of homes in Government Road. This strong insulation resists moisture and offers better thermal performance than fiberglass or cellulose. The panels are fastened to the home’s sheathing, creating a solid thermal barrier that stops drafts and cold spots.
For homes facing strong wind and rain along the Strait, we recommend a minimum R-16 panel thickness to meet building codes. The mineral wool’s water resistance protects the outside walls from moisture damage over time. This insulation system is a smart choice for homeowners in Government Road who want comfort and energy savings.
The mild but wet climate of Government Road needs a building envelope that controls moisture well. Paragon’s insulation method follows best practices for moisture and vapor control. Rigid mineral wool panels create a drainage plane that lets incidental water escape, while the continuous insulation stops thermal bridging that can cause condensation. Proper flashing and sealing around windows, doors, and other openings prevent water from getting in.
This engineered method protects homes in Government Road from the area’s frequent rain and wind. It keeps the outside walls strong for many years, ensuring comfort and energy efficiency for homeowners.
Government Road Insulation Rules
For homes in the Government Road neighbourhood, exterior insulation work that is part of building construction or alteration is regulated by the Burnaby Building Bylaw 2016, Bylaw No. 13658. A building permit is required for work covered by the bylaw, and inspections must check items like perimeter insulation inside concrete foundation walls, floor slab vapour barriers, and insulation and vapour barriers before they are covered.
Insulation installation on the exterior of homes in Government Road is considered construction or alteration work and must follow the City’s construction noise hours. Construction-related activities, including insulation work, are only allowed between 7:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. Monday to Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Saturdays, and are not allowed on Sundays or statutory holidays. Continuous construction noise must not go over 85 dBA when measured at least 15.2 metres from the source in residential areas.
For projects in Government Road where exterior insulation work needs to happen outside standard hours or involves significant construction noise, the City of Burnaby refers to Section 15(1) of the Noise or Sound Abatement Bylaw. Construction noise or construction-related activities are generally allowed only from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Monday to Friday and 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Saturdays; work outside these hours may need special permission or is not allowed, which limits when exterior insulation work can be done.
Imagine a school in Government Road with old wall insulation that allowed cold air and moisture to enter classrooms. We solved this problem by installing new exterior insulation over several weeks. We worked around their daily schedule and kept the site safe for students and staff. Now, the building is noticeably warmer and uses less energy, which ends the drafts that their maintenance team had to deal with every winter.
Local Insulation Support
We often travel to Government Road. Our route usually takes us along Highway 1 and Cariboo Road, passing by Burnaby Lake Regional Park. It typically takes about 25 to 35 minutes to get there from our shop. Insulation upgrades in this area are a regular part of our work, not a special trip. We also support the local community by getting materials from stores like Dick’s Lumber & Building Supplies and JDH Hardware when we are nearby.
If cold air and dampness make your Government Road home drafty and raise heating bills, we can help by installing exterior rigid mineral wool insulation panels. These panels create a continuous thermal wrap that stops drafts, reduces noise, and protects your siding from rain damage. In this area, older homes deal with wet, windy weather from the Strait, so we suggest a minimum R-16 thickness to meet building codes. Exterior insulation work here needs a building permit under Burnaby’s Building Bylaw, and construction noise is limited to 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. on weekdays and 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Saturdays. Projects like these usually cost between CAD 3,000 and CAD 7,500, and we can reach Government Road in about 25 to 35 minutes from our shop.
