Vapour Barrier and Acoustical Sealing

Savage Insulation installs vapour barrier and acoustical sealing over insulated walls, ceilings and basements in Rockland, Orleans and the towns east of Ottawa, so the insulation keeps working the way it should.

What the job includes

• Vapour barrier installed over insulated walls and ceilings
• Joints and openings sealed with acoustical sealant
• Clean-up when we are done

Why it matters

Warm indoor air carries moisture. Without a continuous vapour barrier that moisture can reach the cold side of the wall, condense, and lead to mould and damage over time. Sealing the joints and penetrations also stops drafts and helps keep noise from leaking through gaps.

How a job goes

• On-site assessment. We come to your home and look at the space first-hand.
• Personalized quote. You get a quote written for your project, not a price list.
• A plan for the day. Once you approve, we plan the work around your schedule.
• Efficient installation. Most insulation jobs are completed in a single day.

Questions homeowners ask

Is vapour barrier installed with the insulation?

Usually, yes. We insulate and then seal, so the wall or ceiling is ready for drywall.

Does every wall need a vapour barrier?

It depends on the wall and the job. We will tell you at the on-site assessment what your project needs.

What is acoustical sealant for?

It seals the joints and openings in the vapour barrier so air, moisture and sound do not leak through the gaps.
