Engineered for extreme -40°C Saskatchewan winters. We stop attic rain, eliminate dangerous ice damming, seal expensive thermal leaks, and qualify your home for SaskPower Energy Efficiency rebates.
Saskatchewan suffers from some of the most extreme temperature differentials in North America. Without precision air sealing and R-60 depth, your home becomes a chimney for warm air.
During polar blasts, the inside of your home is 60 degrees warmer than outside. Most homes built before 2010 have settled insulation and unsealed ceiling penetrations that waste thousands of dollars every winter.
Warm indoor moisture escaping past pot lights and plumbing stacks freezes on your roof deck and pours through ceilings when temperatures rise. The Jobb Fix: 100% airtight polyurethane sealing before blowing any insulation.
Escaping attic heat melts upper roof snow that refreezes at cold eaves, forcing water under shingles. The Jobb Fix: High-density R-60 blown fill paired with proper eave baffle ventilation.
Older R-20 to R-32 insulation settles by 30% over time, forcing your heating system to run non-stop. The Jobb Fix: Upgrading to certified R-60 cuts attic heat loss by up to 80%.
We never just blow fluff over dirty leaks. Our certified technicians follow an uncompromising building-science protocol to guarantee permanent energy efficiency.
FLIR infrared inspection to detect hidden air leak bypasses, verify joist depths, and inspect structural roof deck condition.
Optional high-power exterior vacuum extraction for old, rodent-damaged, mouldy, or wet insulation without entering living areas.
Airtight polyurethane expanding foam sealing on electrical wire drops, pot lights, ceiling joints, exhaust fans, and attic hatches.
Installing rafter vent chutes to keep exterior soffit airflow unobstructed, guaranteeing cross-ventilation and zero moisture stagnation.
Dense, evenly leveled blown-in cellulose or fiberglass up to full 20+ inch R-60 depth markers with non-combustible clearances.
Adjust your home size and current attic condition to estimate your annual heating savings across Saskatchewan.
Calculated using average Saskatchewan winter heating degree days (HDD), utility heating tariffs, and SaskPower efficiency benchmarks.

"After dealing with ceiling water stains every spring from attic rain after -35°C cold snaps, we called Jobb Developments. Their crew air-sealed every pot light and vent penetration with polyurethane foam, installed new rafter baffles, and blew our attic up to a full R-60. Not only did our attic rain vanish completely, our bedrooms are finally warm and our heating bill dropped by nearly 30% the very first winter."
"Our home had settled insulation and massive icicles along the eaves every January. Jobb Developments completed the entire air-sealing and R-60 upgrade in one afternoon, kept our hallways spotless with runner tarps, and provided all paperwork for our efficiency rebate."
"Professional, fast, and thorough. You can tell they bring real northern building-science standards to residential work. Our furnace cycles half as often now even during polar vortex weeks."
Clear answers to help you make an informed decision for your home.
Under current Saskatchewan National Building Codes and SaskPower efficiency guidelines, attics should be insulated to a minimum of R-50 to R-60 (approximately 18 to 22 inches of blown cellulose or fiberglass). Most homes built prior to 2010 have settled insulation measuring only R-20 to R-32, causing severe heat loss during winter.
Attic rain happens when warm, moisture-laden indoor air escapes through ceiling bypasses (recessed lights, duct penetrations, attic hatch) into a freezing cold attic space. Frost accumulates heavily on the underside of the roof sheathing during polar snaps. When outdoor temperatures suddenly rise, that frost melts faster than it can evaporate, raining down through your ceiling. We fix this permanently through meticulous air sealing of all ceiling bypasses before installing R-60 insulation.
Yes! Depending on current provincial and federal programs (such as the SaskPower Home Efficiency Rebate and related energy initiatives), homeowners and communities who upgrade their attic insulation to R-50/R-60 and perform verified air sealing can qualify for substantial financial rebates. Jobb Developments provides all necessary technical documentation and post-install compliance details.
A standard single-family home attic upgrade is completed in a single day (usually 4 to 7 hours). We run our heavy-duty delivery hose from our exterior service truck directly through an access hatch. We lay protective runner tarps throughout your hallways, use negative air scrubbers, and vacuum spotless before leaving. Your living space remains clean and comfortable.
Not always! If your existing insulation is dry, odour-free, and undamaged, we can top it up to R-60 directly after completing air sealing and baffle installations. However, if your existing insulation has suffered from animal infestation, rodent droppings, mould from attic rain, or water damage, we recommend our specialized exterior HEPA vacuum extraction service for a healthy, sanitized clean start.
