Where Comfort Meets Performance
Consistent temperatures. Fewer drafts. Quieter interiors. The comfort homeowners experience starts with the decisions you make during construction.
ComfortSHIELD® brings Owens Corning insulation, air sealing, moisture management and roofing solutions together in a whole-home construction approach, from foundation to roof.
Considering thermal performance, air leakage and moisture control together helps builders create a high-performing building envelope. Sound control adds comfort inside. That level of comfort doesn’t happen by chance. It’s built in.

When Reno Becomes DemoThe Grimsby Project
The Grimsby Project
The plan was to renovate—to preserve what was there and improve what could be improved. But once the walls were opened, the truth surfaced. Layers of past additions. Structural compromises. An envelope that had long since stopped performing.
And that’s when the shift happened. They didn’t keep working around the problem. They started over.
Rebuilt using the ComfortSHIELD® system, the home was designed from the outside in—where the building envelope led every decision. The result is a net-zero ready home that performs the way it should from day one.

When Vintage Meets VisionThe Montreal Project
The Montreal Project
In the heart of Montreal, Fabrizio from Idea Construction took on a renovation that paired historic charm with modern performance. Structural quirks demanded creativity and precision, with Owens Corning insulation helping bring the vision to life.
A key focus of this net-zero ready renovation was transforming the basement into comfortable living space. Improved insulation and a dedicated radon abatement system helped address thermal performance and below-grade air risks.
The result brings heritage and high performance together, showing how a complex retrofit can create more livable space while preserving the character that makes a home unique.
