MEETING YOUR INSULATION NEEDS SINCE 1967

Choosing an insulation solution is one of the most important decisions you will make, and O’Reilly Brothers in the Ottawa area has the experience and knowledge to help you every step of the way.

In 1967, Richard O’Reilly of Ottawa, Ontario, founded a strong company that has now exceeded five decades in operation. It remains a family-owned and operated business committed to quality service and customer satisfaction.

This tightly-knit company is led by Terrence O’Reilly and Garth McKibbon, with combined experience exceeding 50 years. Assisting as estimators are Jason Grulke, Blake Saucier-Curtis, Steven Chitty, and Dale Kerr.

WHY HIRE A PROFESSIONAL INSULATION COMPANY?

Quality insulation brings benefits to all buildings, whether they're family homes or downtown offices. In simple terms, insulation prevents inside air from leaving your home, and outside air from coming in. Therefore, it is important you only choose professionals for insulation installation. Doing so has many benefits, such as:

Experience: No amount of internet research can make up for the expertise that comes with years of on-hand experience. Insulation contractors have this experience and will get the job done right without wasting your time and money.
Knowledge: Laypersons do not have the adequate know-how to make decisions regarding your property's insulation while considering factors such as the building layout, area and the occupants' needs.
Tools: Most people don't have access to the tools required to install insulation correctly. Buying these tools for a one-time job is not financially prudent. The professionals, on the other hand, always have cutting-edge tools and quality materials with them.
Removal: Replacing old insulation requires the removal of old and outdated insulation. This task is hazardous because insulation traps dirt, debris, mould and other pollutants. Professionals understand these risks and follow relevant safety protocols.
Energy-efficiency: Seasoned insulation contractors will always seek to maximize your property's energy efficiency. They will make decisions that eventually lead to energy savings and less stress on your HVAC system.
Disposal: The removal of old insulation also requires safe disposal. As a layperson, you probably have no knowledge of the correct disposal procedures. Professionals will remove your insulation and disposal according to the relevant guidelines.
Eco-friendly: An expert insulation contractor will educate you about your options so that you can make an eco-friendly choice with your insulation. They can incorporate greener options in your insulation plan.
Insulation plan: Professional insulation contractors have the know-how to design a personalized insulation plan for your building. They will ensure that your insulation envelope is secure. This is particularly important for larger commercial buildings.

SAVE MONEY

All insulation is not equal. Insulation receiving a rating of high efficiency and R-value has a greater ability to reduce heat transfer and loss. Older homes are commonly insulated with outdated, under-performing insulation with lower than standard R-values.

With proper updated insulation, you can save hundreds of dollars in energy costs, both in the heating and cooling seasons. You will have cost recovery for the new insulation, and in the event of selling your home, you may enjoy an overall higher list price.

HELP THE ENVIRONMENT

Installed by professionals, new insulation helps to seal many areas in your home where air transfer happens. Creating tight seals directly reduces the amount of greenhouse gases emitted from your property. We all need to do our part to protect the earth: this is a simple way to do so, and it benefits you directly by saving money.

PROTECT YOUR INVESTMENT

Insulation that is poorly installed, too old, or insufficient allows wind and rain right into your home. Having too much moisture in your house increases material and structural deterioration, and can create health concerns.

Too dry an environment can be just as damaging and uncomfortable. Improving your insulation saves on heating and cooling costs, as they will never be in over demand. Furthermore, your furnace or air conditioner will have a longer lifespan. Effective insulation helps to keep the value of your home from declining.
