The more effective your insulation is, the more it will save you on heating and cooling costs. crawlspace encapsulation is a unique insulation and sealant that expands to fill gaps and crevices. It can be sprayed in attics, crawl spaces and rim joists, new construction, pole barns, and existing homes. It is sprayed into the space and then it quickly hardens to create a tight seal that significantly improves energy efficiency. It also provides a more comfortable living environment.

In addition to energy savings, spray foam insulation also blocks air infiltration and creates a barrier that prevents moisture from entering the home. This helps reduce mold, mildew and dust. It also reduces noise penetration by up to 80% making your home quieter and more comfortable.
There are two types of spray foam insulation: open and closed cell. Open cell spray foam is a bit more affordable, but it doesn’t have the R-value of closed cell foam and it can’t be used in below ground projects because it doesn’t act as a vapor barrier.
Closed cell spray foam is more expensive but it offers superior energy savings, air sealing and soundproofing. The best option for your home is to consult with a reputable spray foam insulation contractor that can help you determine the best solution for your home.
