Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, proper insulation can significantly reduce your energy costs. By limiting heat loss in the winter and heat gain in the summer, insulation allows your heating and cooling system to work more efficiently. Many homeowners notice improvements as soon as their next energy bill, especially if existing insulation was old, thin, damaged, or missing in key areas. Over time, these savings can add up often helping insulation pay for itself within just a few years.
Yes, once it’s fully cured, spray foam insulation is safe for your home and your family. We follow manufacturer guidelines and industry best practices to ensure a safe installation. During application, we recommend that people and pets stay out of the work area until curing is complete typically 24 hours because it can release odors or vapors during the initial set. After that, it’s non-toxic and inert.
Signs that you may need new or upgraded insulation include:
Uneven temperatures between rooms
High energy bills despite regular HVAC use
Drafts or cold spots in winter
Hot, stuffy rooms in summer
Signs of moisture, pests, or damage in existing insulation
We offer professional inspections to determine whether your current insulation is still doing its job or if it’s time for a replacement.
The best insulation depends on your goals, budget, and property type. Spray foam offers top-tier energy efficiency and air sealing, while blown-in and batt insulation can be great cost-effective solutions. We’ll assess your home’s needs, local climate, and building structure to recommend the best fit. Whether it’s for an attic, walls, crawl space, or a full building project.
Commercial insulation often requires materials and methods designed for larger spaces, different building codes, and heavier use. The goals can also differ such as sound control, temperature regulation for large HVAC systems, or specialized fire resistance. Residential insulation focuses on maximizing comfort, efficiency, and indoor air quality for daily living. We’re experienced in both, so we can tailor solutions for your specific needs.
For most insulation types, you can stay in your home during the process. For spray foam, we recommend leaving the home for 24 hours after installation to allow for proper ventilation for the material to fully cure. To prepare, we suggest:
Clearing access to work areas (attic hatch, crawl space, walls)
Removing valuable or fragile items from the workspace
Letting us know about any pets so we can keep them safe during installation
We’ll guide you through every step so there are no surprises.
Yes. Spray foam insulation can significantly improve indoor air quality. According to the American Lung Association, over 40% of U.S. households have at least one person affected by asthma or allergies. Spray foam creates a tight air seal that helps block:
Outdoor pollutants
Mold-causing moisture
Dust and allergens
Rodents and pests
By reducing unwanted air infiltration, spray foam helps create a cleaner, healthier living environment especially important for allergy-sensitive households.
