Vapour barrier installation in Acadia, Calgary — 6 mil poly sealed over insulation before drywall, lapped at the seams and sealed at every penetration.
A vapour barrier is one of the few things in a build that is completely hidden and completely unforgiving — once the drywall is on, a torn sheet or an unsealed outlet box stays that way for the life of the wall. In Acadia we install and seal 6 mil poly over the insulation on the warm side, lapped at the seams and sealed at every penetration, before any board goes up. Acadia is an established south Calgary community of 1960s-70s homes where ceiling stipple, settling cracks and dated texture are common, so attic top-ups and wall insulation upgrades are common here alongside basement development, since original insulation levels are often below current standards. We cover Acadia, Rangeview, Ricardo Ranch, Belvedere and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.
The quote happens at your Acadia Calgary home, in front of the work. We measure, we look at what is behind the wall where it matters, and the price we give is the price.

Removal is a frequent request in Acadia, and the age of the ceiling decides how the work is approached rather than how it is priced.
