How the Attic Insulation Rebate Works for Peterborough Homes
The Home Renovation Savings program calculates the standalone attic insulation rebate at 50% of your total insulation cost after tax, up to a maximum. Your maximum depends on your attic’s current insulation level:
- Up to $1,250 for attics currently at R-12 or below — the thinnest, most under-insulated attics, common in Peterborough’s older, established neighbourhoods
- Up to $1,000 for attics currently between R-12 and R-25
- Up to $800 for attics currently between R-25 and R-35
Peterborough’s housing stock spans a long history along the Otonabee River — older areas like Downtown Peterborough and East City sit alongside newer development in Monaghan and Ashburnham. Build era is a reasonable starting guess for how under-insulated an attic might be, but it’s not a substitute for measuring it. We measure your attic’s actual current insulation level during a free in-home inspection — we don’t estimate it over the phone.
Types of Attic Insulation for Peterborough Homes
The right upgrade depends on your attic’s shape, current insulation condition, and whether drafts are part of the problem — we’ll recommend one after an inspection, not before.
Blown-In Insulation (Cellulose & Fiberglass)
The most common rebate-eligible upgrade for Peterborough attics with settled or thin original insulation. Loose-fill cellulose or fiberglass fills gaps around joists and framing that batt insulation typically misses.
Spray Foam Insulation
Combines insulation and air sealing in one step — a strong fit for homes with drafts, uneven room temperatures, or complex roof lines.
Fiberglass Batt Insulation
A cost-effective option for straightforward, regularly shaped attic spaces without complicated framing.
Benefits of Claiming Your Attic Insulation Rebate in Peterborough
- Lower upfront cost. The rebate covers 50% of your insulation cost after tax, up to your eligible tier maximum.
- Lower winter heating bills. Under-insulated attics are one of the largest sources of heat loss in a home.
- More consistent indoor temperatures. Fewer hot-in-summer, cold-in-winter upstairs rooms.
- Reduced ice damming risk. Warm air leaking into the attic melts roof snow unevenly, contributing to ice buildup along the eaves.
- Experienced installation team.
- We handle the rebate paperwork. Documentation matched to what the program requires, so a technicality doesn’t delay or cost you the rebate.
- Free, no-obligation inspection. We measure your actual attic before quoting anything.

Attic Insulation Rebate Peterborough — Frequently Asked Questions
How much is the attic insulation rebate in Peterborough?
Up to $1,250 through the Home Renovation Savings program’s standalone attic insulation stream. The program calculates it at 50% of your insulation cost after tax, with the exact amount depending on your attic’s current insulation level.
Do I need a home energy assessment to get the rebate?
Standalone attic insulation upgrades typically don’t require a full home energy assessment.
Am I eligible for the attic insulation rebate in Peterborough?
Eligibility generally requires a home heated by natural gas, electricity, oil, propane, or wood; a detached, semi-detached, townhouse, or condominium unit; and existing attic insulation below the program’s R-value thresholds. We confirm eligibility against your home’s actual, measured insulation level during a free inspection.
Do you handle the rebate paperwork?
Yes. We file the documentation and match it to what the program requires, so a technicality doesn’t delay or cost you the rebate.
Do older Peterborough homes need different treatment than newer builds?
Often, yes. Established areas like Downtown Peterborough and East City tend to have older, more settled insulation. Newer builds in Monaghan and Ashburnham meet current code but can still underperform if air sealing wasn’t done correctly during construction. Every attic is assessed individually.
