A technological improvement compared to traditional cellulose and fiberglass insulation, spray foam insulation (SPF) resists heat transfer and insulates and seals gaps. SPF creates a tight barrier and prevents hot and cold air, vapor and moisture from penetrating into a building’s interior. It can also be an effective sound barrier.

Spray Foam Solves These Problems
When building and homeowners seek us out, these are some of the common challenges we help them overcome:
Uncomfortable Rooms
One room or the entire building experiences extreme temperatures, either way too hot or way too cold compared to other rooms.
High Energy Bills
The air conditioner or furnace is running constantly, causing high monthly utility bills and a strain on your family’s or company’s budget.
Unhealthy Home
Family members or employees become ill more often than they should or allergies get more intense each year.
Annoying Problems
Moisture and condensation are all regular and stressful occurrences at at your home.
Insufficient Insulation
An energy audit or efficiency inspection identified poor or no insulation in certain areas of the building or home.
Remodeling or Building
When remodeling or building, insulation is not only needed to pass code but to help you get the most out of your property. Closed cell spray foam also helps to strengthen exterior walls and roofs.
Choosing to insulate your home with spray foam insulation comes with a number of benefits. Just a few of these include:
- Denser than conventional insulation, providing a better barrier
- Higher R-value, meaning your ceilings can be higher
- Never loses its shape, unlike conventional insulation
- Fills in cracks and gaps when installed
- Lower energy bills due to lack of air filtering through
