Closed-cell spray foam insulation is necessary when specific project goals require maximum thermal resistance (R-value) in minimal space, or when a complete moisture and air barrier is required to address high humidity typical of Central Texas. If the space requires structural enhancement or if the insulation must perform reliably even if exposed to water, closed-cell […]
Open-cell spray foam insulation installation generally has a positive and measurable impact on a Georgetown property’s resale value. The primary drivers for this increase are significant energy savings, improved home comfort, and better indoor air quality, all of which are strong selling points for modern homebuyers. A home that costs less to operate and provides […]
Yes, open cell spray foam can be a highly effective solution for reducing persistent allergy issues. By creating a superior air barrier, it significantly limits the infiltration of common outdoor allergens like pollen, dust, and other pollutants into your living space. Unlike traditional insulation, which often leaves gaps and allows for air leakage, open cell […]
A drafty room, surprisingly high energy bills, or concerns about moisture in your walls are more than just minor annoyances. They are signs that your building’s envelope, the barrier between your conditioned indoor space and the outside world, is failing. For years, traditional insulation materials have been the standard solution, but they often leave gaps […]
If you’ve ever felt a blast of freezing air by a window in January or noticed your AC unit running constantly in the summer heat, you’ve experienced the costly problem of air leakage. It’s the primary reason homes waste energy, often accounting for 25% to 40% of the energy used for heating and cooling in […]
Proper insulation does more than just regulate temperature; it makes a home feel fundamentally more stable and secure. This feeling comes from a combination of structural reinforcement, sound dampening, and moisture control. When insulation, particularly materials like closed-cell spray foam, is applied correctly, it bonds to the building materials, adding rigidity to the structure. This […]
Spray foam insulation is a direct countermeasure to ice dams because it stops the root cause: heat loss from your home into the attic. By creating a complete air and thermal barrier on the underside of the roof deck, it keeps the roof surface cold. When the roof stays at or near the outdoor temperature, […]
Spray foam insulation keeps rooms cooler during the summer primarily by creating an airtight seal. Unlike traditional insulation, which mainly slows down heat transfer through conduction, spray polyurethane foam (SPF) expands to fill every crack and gap. This stops the movement of hot, humid air from the outside into your home a process known as […]
For homeowners in Waco, the best time of year to install spray foam insulation is during the fall and spring months. The moderate temperatures and lower humidity common during these seasons create the ideal conditions for the chemical reaction that forms the insulation. This allows the foam to cure properly, expand fully, and create a […]
