BATTS

Batt insulation is one of the most widely used and trusted insulation methods because of its balance of performance, versatility, and cost-effectiveness. Batts come in pre-cut panels made from either fiberglass or mineral wool, sized to fit standard stud, joist, and rafter spacing. Once placed snugly in these cavities, they slow the transfer of heat, helping homes stay warmer in winter and cooler in summer. Fiberglass batts are lightweight, reliable, and affordable, while mineral wool batts offer additional benefits such as fire resistance, moisture resistance, and superior soundproofing. When installed with precision—cutting around electrical boxes and plumbing, avoiding compression, and sealing all seams—they provide consistent thermal performance that lasts for decades. In colder climates, batt insulation is paired with a polyethylene vapour barrier to control moisture and condensation, protecting both the insulation and the building structure. Batts are ideal for new construction, basements, exterior walls, and accessible renovation projects where the framing is open, making them a flexible option that can be tailored to almost any building type.
