Areas that are uninsulated or poorly insulated, such as exterior corners or foundation walls, can be improved with additional insulation. This may be expensive by itself, but can be incorporated as part of a renovation. Don't forget to install an air/vapour barrier (usually polyethylene) on the room side of the insulation to prevent hidden condensation behind the insulation.
