Questions We Get Every Week

Straight answers, no runaround — the same ones Erik gives at your kitchen table.

THE BASICS

What is injection foam?
A foam that’s injected into your existing wall cavities as a soft, shaving-cream consistency, flows around wiring and pipes, and cures into a complete, stable fill. It insulates and air-seals in one step, and it never settles or sags.
Spray foam is applied to open surfaces — it needs your walls opened up. Injection foam is made for closed walls in existing homes: it goes in through small access points from outside, no demolition. It’s the highest R-value you can put in your walls without tearing them out.
Cellulose settles — decades later it’s compacted into the bottom of each cavity with an empty, cold gap at the top, and it does nothing to stop air movement. Foam fills the entire cavity, seals air leaks as it fills, and holds its performance for the life of the home.
Yes. Non-toxic once cured, Class 1 fire rated, and it doesn’t off-gas into your living space.

THE WORK

How long does the job take?
Most homes: one day. Two-story homes or anything over 1,400 sq ft: two days.
No. We work from the outside — siding comes off, foam goes in, siding goes back on. Nothing inside is opened unless you choose interior drilling.
No problem — we can drill from the inside instead, through drywall or plaster, and leave a rough patch at every hole. You handle the sanding, priming, and painting once we’re finished, and your exterior stays untouched.
We don’t. We drill through the mortar joints between the bricks with a 5/8-inch bit — a hole about the size of a dime — then seal with new mortar, color matched as close as possible. Your brick is never touched.
Yes — most customers do. The work happens outside; you’ll hear drilling and the rig running, and we’re done by dinner.
Never stop. We work all year round — the cold doesn’t affect the foam when we inject it into your walls, and neither does the heat. If your driveway is passable, we’re working.
Usually, yes — settled loose-fill leaves most of the cavity empty, and the thermal camera shows us exactly what’s there. Erik will give you a straight answer at the estimate after scanning your specific walls.

THE RESULTS

Will I actually feel a difference?
The first cold night or the first hot day. And you won’t have to take it on faith — the before-and-after blower door tests put a number on it: our tests routinely measure at least 25% less air leakage, and up to 50%.
Pipes in exterior walls freeze because cold air pours through the empty cavity around them. Foam fills that cavity and shuts off the air infiltration — dramatically reducing the freeze risk that has you leaving faucets dripping every January.
Noticeably. Customers tell us the quiet is the first thing they notice — street noise fades and voices stop carrying through walls.
Equipment that isn’t running constantly wears out slower. Insulated walls mean fewer cycles, less strain, and more years before you’re writing a check for replacement.

THE MONEY

What does it cost?
Every home is different, which is why estimates are free and come with real measurements — not a guess over the phone. Every estimate is done personally by Erik, the owner.
Yes — $750** off for anyone who has ever served in the United States Armed Forces: active duty, Guard, Reserve, retired, or veteran. Owned by a retired Army Master Sergeant, so this one’s personal. Also: $500** off for first responders, $500** off for homeowners 60 and better. One discount per job — the largest one applies.

**Discounts apply to whole-home projects with a minimum job size of $5,000. One discount per household.

Qualifying wall insulation projects earn a check mailed to you, made out to you — minimum $1,425, up to $2,025. We’re a Focus on Energy Trade Ally and we handle every page of the paperwork. You just cash the check.
The strongest one we know how to write: our Lifetime-of-theHome, Transferable Warranty. The foam is warranted never to settle, sag, or lose performance for as long as your house stands — and it transfers to the next owner if you sell. Covered warranty work is fully covered: no trip fee, no material fee, no technician fee.
