    Easy way to insulate your attic 

    When your attic is not correctly insulated you are likely losing a large amount of valuable heat when it’s cold out.

    When it’s hot out your attic will heat up and some of that trapped heat up there will pass into the rest of your home, which will increase your cooling costs.

    In this video, produced by the Owens Corning company, they demonstrate how to put insulation between your attic joists, where to use a vapor barrier, and how much insulation to use.

    You can make this a DIY project. Or if you need advice on finding a reputable installer in the 0 area, contact me and I’d be glad to make some suggestions.

    Locating a Trustworthy Renovator 

    Before you start a home upgrading project you should get some expert advice. One of the first decisions you should make is who you will get to do the work. Whether you decide to do it yourself or you want to have an experienced handyman or home renovator do the work, you can get a wealth of advice from a home or building supplies store like Home Depot, Lowes, Rona, or Home Building Centres.

    Not only can they give you design ideas, but they can suggest competent tradespeople too. They may have tradespeople on staff who can do certain aspects of your project. Or they will probably be able to suggest some reliable trades whose work they can vouch for.
