What R-value do I need for Vaughan, ON?

Most homes in Vaughan, ON need R-50 to R-60 in the attic, R-22 to R-24 in walls, and R-30 in basement walls. Ontario's building code specifies minimums; rebates from federal and provincial programs (Greener Homes Grant, etc.) often reward going beyond code.

Is the insulation contractor I hire covered by Tarion?

Tarion covers new-home builders licensed in Ontario, not retrofit trades on an existing home. For renovations, your protection comes from contractor-side WSIB clearance, CGL insurance, and the workmanship warranty written into the quote — all of which insulation contractors on WiseTrades publish on their profiles.

Do Vaughan tree-protection bylaws affect renovation work?

Yes — Vaughan's tree bylaw protects trees over 20cm diameter on private property, requiring permits for removal or root-zone work near them. Vaughan trades know the bylaw thresholds and coordinate arborist sign-off on excavation projects near mature trees.
