Spray Foam Insulation in Lawrence, KS

Spray foam insulation sprays on as a liquid, expands into gaps and cures into a solid layer that both insulates and stops air. In Lawrence houses, especially older ones, air leakage is often the biggest problem: wind through rim joists, cold air running up balloon-frame walls, warm air escaping into the attic around chimneys and plumbing. Foam closes those paths while it insulates.

Closed-cell

Dense and rigid, about R-5 to R-7 per inch (HomeGuide). It slows vapor and resists water, so it is the choice for rim joists, stone or concrete foundation walls, crawl space walls and metal buildings.

Open-cell

Light and soft, about R-3.5 to R-3.7 per inch. It expands to fill odd framing, dampens sound and costs less per inch. It suits open walls during remodels, kneewalls and roof decks with the vapor side planned.

Old houses and remodels

When plaster comes down during a remodel, the open walls are the best chance to air seal and insulate a historic house properly. We block the tops and bottoms of balloon-frame cavities and spray each bay.

Signs you need it

Drafts at baseboards and outlets, cold floors, upstairs rooms that swing with the weather, ice dams after snow, or rising bills.
