Scope of work:
The proposed work will improve the building envelope and efficiency through the following upgrades:
installing energy efficient windows, replacement of existing exterior doors and storm doors with energy
efficient insulated metal or fibreglass doors, installing continuous double-layer sheathing membrane to
improve air tightness, adding spray foam insulation at the first floor header, remediating areas with
interrupted insulation at the basement walls by reinstating insulation and vapour retarder, and sealing
penetrations at the ceiling/attic to improve the vapour barrier layer. All materials are to be provided by the
contractor.
The residence is listed as a related building on site that contributes to the heritage character of the
lighthouse, under the Heritage Lighthouse Protection Act (S.C. 2008, c 16). Under this, the following
character-defining elements of the related buildings should be respected: their respective built forms,
profiles, and proportions; their traditional red and white exterior colour schemes; their contextual
relationships to the lighthouse within an historic light station setting. The proposed renovations will
respect these character-defining elements of the residence and are not expected to impact the heritage
value of the building.
The Contractor must perform and complete the Work by March 31, 2026.
