Cantilever Insulation

Cantilevers are often found in homes with overhanging upper stories, decks, or balconies. Insulating these areas is essential to keep the home comfortable and energy-efficient. At CDAA Incorporated, we follow a thorough process to ensure effective insulation of cantilevers.
Firstly, our team will assess the cantilever and its surrounding area to identify any potential air leaks, moisture issues, or other concerns. Then, we will seal off any air leaks using foam, caulk, or weather-stripping to prevent air from escaping or entering the cantilever.
Once the air leaks are sealed, we will install insulation in the cantilever. The type of insulation used will depend on the specific requirements of the project. We typically use blown-in or batt insulation for cantilevers, which is installed by filling the entire cavity with the insulation material.
After the insulation is installed, we will also install a vapor barrier if needed to prevent any moisture from entering the cantilever. This helps to prevent mold and mildew growth and ensures that the insulation remains effective for years to come.
Finally, we will check the insulation for any gaps or areas where the insulation may have settled, and we will make any necessary adjustments to ensure that the insulation is evenly distributed and effective in reducing energy loss.
At CDAA Incorporated, we take pride in our attention to detail and our commitment to quality workmanship. Our team of experts will ensure that your cantilever is properly insulated and protected from the elements, providing you with a comfortable and energy-efficient home.
