Are you considering spray foam insulation for your home? It’s an excellent choice for enhancing energy efficiency, improving indoor air quality, and creating a more comfortable living space. However, before you dive into your spray foam insulation project, it’s important to understand the installation process. At Custom Insulation Company, Inc., we guide our customers through every step of the way to ensure a seamless experience and optimal results. Here’s what you can expect when adding spray foam insulation to your home:
The first step is a detailed consultation with one of our experts. We’ll assess your home’s specific needs and determine the best type of spray foam insulation for your project. During this visit, we’ll inspect the areas that need insulation, such as the attic, crawl spaces, walls, and floors. We’ll also discuss your energy goals and budget, ensuring that you have a solution tailored to your needs.
Before installation begins, the area to be insulated will need to be prepared. This could involve removing old insulation or clearing obstacles to make space for the spray foam application. Our team will make sure that the area is safe and accessible, ensuring that the installation process will go smoothly. We’ll also cover your furniture, floors, and other sensitive areas to protect them from any overspray.
Once everything is prepped, our skilled team will begin the spray foam application. Using specialized equipment, we’ll apply the foam in a series of layers to your home’s cavities, ensuring an even and complete coverage. The foam expands upon application, filling every nook and cranny and providing an airtight seal. Whether we’re working in hard-to-reach attic spaces or along walls, our team will ensure that every area is properly insulated.
After the spray foam has been applied, it needs time to cure and set. This typically takes around 24 hours, depending on factors like temperature and humidity. During this time, we recommend that the area be kept ventilated to ensure proper curing. Our team will provide you with all the details on the curing process and what to expect during this period.
Once the foam has fully cured, we’ll inspect the work to ensure everything meets our high-quality standards. If there are any spots that need touch-ups, our team will take care of them right away. Finally, we’ll clean up the work area, removing any protective coverings and leaving your home looking as good as new.
Now, with your new spray foam insulation in place, you can start enjoying the benefits right away! You’ll notice improved temperature regulation, reduced energy bills, and a more comfortable home environment. Plus, your home will be better protected against moisture, mold growth, and outdoor pollutants.
At Custom Insulation Company, Inc., we pride ourselves on providing a smooth and hassle-free spray foam insulation installation experience. From the initial consultation to the final inspection, our team is here to ensure that your project is completed efficiently and to your satisfaction.

At Custom Insulation Company, Inc., we believe in providing solutions that not only improve your home’s comfort but also protect its long-term health. One of the key benefits of spray foam insulation is its ability to prevent mold and mildew growth—two common problems that can damage both your home and your health.
Here’s how spray foam insulation helps you stay mold-free:
Spray foam insulation creates an airtight seal that fills cracks, gaps, and holes in walls, ceilings, and floors. This barrier prevents moisture-laden air from entering your home and condensation from forming on surfaces, both of which can contribute to mold and mildew growth.
Unlike traditional fiberglass insulation, spray foam is moisture-resistant. Its closed-cell structure (in closed-cell foam) and dense composition prevent water from penetrating and accumulating in hidden spaces like attics, crawl spaces, and walls, where mold thrives. Even in areas with higher humidity levels, spray foam keeps your home safe from potential water damage.
Mold and mildew thrive in areas of high humidity. Spray foam insulation helps maintain consistent indoor temperatures and minimizes the chance of moisture accumulation by reducing airflow and temperature fluctuations. With spray foam, you create a more stable, dry environment that mold simply can’t survive in.
Spray foam’s durability means it will continue to protect your home for years to come. It’s a permanent solution to mold and mildew issues, unlike temporary fixes like dehumidifiers or mold-killing sprays. Spray foam helps to maintain your home’s health and integrity, even in the most vulnerable areas.
Mold and mildew can contribute to poor indoor air quality, leading to allergies, respiratory issues, and discomfort. By sealing out moisture, spray foam insulation creates a cleaner, healthier living environment—free from the airborne spores that mold produces.
When you choose spray foam insulation from Custom Insulation Company, Inc., you're not only improving your home's energy efficiency but also protecting it from the harmful effects of mold and mildew. Spray foam creates a dry, stable, and healthy indoor environment that lasts for years, giving you peace of mind.

At Custom Insulation Company, Inc., we know that pests are more than just a nuisance—they can cause serious damage to your home. But did you know that spray foam insulation could be the solution to keeping unwanted critters at bay?
Spray foam insulation is not just about energy efficiency and temperature regulation; it can also serve as a powerful barrier against pests. Here’s how:
Spray foam expands as it’s applied, filling even the tiniest gaps and cracks in your walls, floors, and ceilings. These small entry points are where pests like ants, rodents, and insects love to sneak in. By sealing these openings, spray foam creates a tight barrier that pests simply can’t penetrate.
Certain pests, like rodents and termites, can chew through traditional insulation materials, but spray foam’s dense structure makes it virtually impossible to penetrate. Whether it's a mouse trying to gnaw its way through or a termite looking for softwood, spray foam stands strong as a protective shield.
Many pests are attracted to damp, humid environments, which are often found in basements, crawlspaces, and attics. Spray foam insulation acts as a moisture barrier, preventing water from seeping into your home and reducing the likelihood of pests like mold, mildew, and termites moving in.
Unlike traditional insulation that may degrade over time, spray foam is incredibly durable and maintains its shape and efficiency for years. This means your pest protection is long-lasting, offering peace of mind knowing that your home is safeguarded from critters year after year.
One of the best things about spray foam is that it’s safe for both your home and the environment. Unlike chemical pest control methods, spray foam provides a natural, non-toxic solution to pest prevention.
Spray foam insulation is not only a smart choice for improving your home’s energy efficiency, but it can also help protect your home from unwanted pests. By sealing gaps, providing moisture control, and creating a durable barrier, spray foam insulation can keep your living space safe, comfortable, and pest-free.

When it comes to creating a peaceful, quiet living environment, soundproofing is key. Whether you're trying to block out the noise of traffic, loud neighbors, or a busy household, spray foam insulation can be a game-changer. At Custom Insulation Company, Inc., we specialize in spray foam solutions that not only improve energy efficiency but also provide significant soundproofing benefits.
Here’s how spray foam insulation can help reduce noise and make your home a quieter place to live:
Spray foam insulation works by expanding to fill every nook and cranny in your walls, ceilings, and floors. This expansion creates a solid, airtight barrier that blocks noise from traveling through gaps and cracks. Whether it's airborne sounds like music, voices, or traffic noise, spray foam effectively prevents them from entering your space, keeping your home quieter.
Unlike traditional fiberglass insulation, spray foam has the ability to absorb and dampen sound waves. Its dense and flexible structure helps absorb vibrations and reduce sound transmission between rooms. This is especially helpful in areas like bedrooms, home offices, or media rooms, where peace and quiet are crucial for relaxation or concentration.
In multi-story homes or buildings with multiple levels, spray foam insulation can help prevent sound from traveling between floors. By sealing up gaps in the floors and walls, spray foam minimizes footstep noise, loud conversations, and the rumble of appliances moving between levels. This is particularly important in apartment-style living or homes with hard flooring like hardwood or tile.
Not only does spray foam insulation reduce unwanted external noise, but it also improves the overall acoustics inside your home. By filling the gaps where sound can leak, spray foam helps create a more acoustically balanced space, making your home more comfortable for both listening and conversation.
For homeowners who want to create the ultimate home theater or sound recording studio, spray foam insulation is a must. Its superior soundproofing qualities help keep audio in and outside noise out, creating a controlled environment perfect for enjoying music, movies, or recordings without distraction.
When it comes to reducing noise and enhancing comfort, spray foam insulation is a powerful and effective solution. At Custom Insulation Company, Inc., we specialize in providing high-quality spray foam insulation that not only improves your home’s energy efficiency but also helps you enjoy a quieter, more peaceful environment.

When it comes to home insulation, spray foam is a long-lasting solution that offers superior energy efficiency and comfort. But how long does it actually last? The short answer: decades. Here’s a deeper look at why spray foam insulation is a great investment for your home and how its longevity can benefit you for years to come.
One of the main advantages of spray foam insulation is its durability. Unlike traditional insulation materials like fiberglass, which can sag, settle, or degrade over time, spray foam maintains its shape and effectiveness for 25+ years (and often much longer). Once applied, it expands and hardens, forming a solid barrier that doesn’t shift, compress, or degrade under normal conditions.
Spray foam is also resistant to moisture, which helps it last longer compared to other insulation types. Moisture can be a major issue for traditional insulation, often leading to mold growth, decay, or reduced R-value. Since spray foam creates an airtight seal that prevents water from seeping in, it helps keep your home dry, protecting both the insulation and the structural integrity of your home for the long haul.
Over time, many insulation materials can settle or break down, reducing their effectiveness. Spray foam, however, expands when applied and fills every nook and cranny, forming a tight, durable barrier. This means it won’t settle or lose its insulating properties. Its continuous structure remains intact, ensuring your home stays insulated for many years without the need for frequent replacements.
Because spray foam insulation lasts so long, it helps reduce the need for future repairs or replacements. In addition, it maintains its energy-efficient properties, continuing to save you money on heating and cooling bills year after year. It’s a one-time investment that provides ongoing benefits, including a reduced carbon footprint, improved comfort, and lower energy costs.
Another reason spray foam insulation is so long-lasting is that it requires very little maintenance. It doesn’t need to be replaced or refreshed like other types of insulation. As long as your home is properly sealed and the foam is intact, there’s virtually no need for repairs. However, if you notice damage (such as physical punctures or cracks), it’s easy to inspect and repair small areas without a full replacement.
To get the most out of your spray foam insulation, make sure it's installed by professionals who understand the material and proper application techniques. At Custom Insulation Company, Inc., we use high-quality spray foam products and ensure that every installation is done right, ensuring a long-lasting, effective insulation solution for your home.

As winter sets in and we start spending more time indoors, air quality becomes more important than ever. Did you know that spray foam insulation can play a key role in improving your indoor air quality by reducing allergens? Here's how it works and why it's especially beneficial during the colder months.
Spray foam insulation creates an airtight seal around your home, filling gaps and cracks in areas like walls, attics, and crawl spaces. By sealing these openings, spray foam prevents outdoor allergens such as dust, pollen, and mold spores from entering your home. This means you can enjoy cleaner air and fewer allergy flare-ups, especially in winter when you're keeping windows and doors closed.
Winter can bring high humidity levels, which can lead to mold growth in your home. Mold is a major allergen and can cause respiratory issues, especially for those with asthma or allergies. Spray foam insulation helps block moisture from seeping into walls and attics, significantly reducing the chances of mold and mildew growth. A drier home is a healthier home, particularly in colder months when moisture problems tend to worsen.
The airtight seal provided by spray foam insulation doesn’t just keep outdoor allergens out — it also helps to prevent dust, pet dander, and other indoor pollutants from circulating throughout your home. As you crank up the heat during the winter months, air tends to become drier and can stir up dust, exacerbating allergy symptoms. With spray foam insulation, your home stays cleaner, and allergens are kept at bay.
Because spray foam insulation improves the overall energy efficiency of your home, your heating system works less to maintain a consistent temperature. A more efficient system also means less strain on your air filters, allowing them to work better at trapping allergens like pet dander and dust. With proper insulation, your HVAC system will circulate cleaner air, benefiting your home’s air quality and your health.
Cold weather often results in fluctuating indoor temperatures, which can cause discomfort and exacerbate allergy symptoms. Spray foam insulation helps maintain a consistent indoor temperature, reducing drafts and cold spots. With more stable temperatures, you’re less likely to experience the constant movement of allergens around your home, helping you breathe easier and stay comfortable.
If you’re looking for a way to reduce allergens, improve indoor air quality, and increase energy efficiency this winter, spray foam insulation is an excellent solution. At Custom Insulation Company, Inc., we specialize in providing top-quality spray foam insulation that not only improves your home’s comfort but also supports a healthier living environment for you and your family.
