Spray Foam Insulation

What Is Spray Foam Insulation?

Spray foam insulation is a high-performance material that expands when applied, filling small gaps, cracks, and hard-to-reach areas. Unlike traditional insulation like fiberglass or cellulose, spray foam creates an airtight seal that helps control indoor temperature, reduce drafts, and prevent moisture buildup.

There are two main types of spray foam insulation:

• Open-cell spray foam: Softer and more flexible, allowing for soundproofing and air sealing.
• Closed-cell spray foam: Denser and more rigid, offering a higher R-value (insulation rating) and moisture resistance.

Both types can be used in walls, attics, crawl spaces, and basements to improve insulation and efficiency.

Does Spray Foam Crack Over Time?

Spray foam insulation is designed to be long-lasting and highly durable. Once cured, it maintains its shape and effectiveness for many years without cracking or deteriorating. Unlike traditional insulation materials that can settle, shrink, or degrade, spray foam adheres firmly to surfaces and remains intact even under changing temperature and humidity conditions. Closed-cell spray foam is particularly resistant to cracking because of its dense structure, making it a great choice for high-moisture and high-stress areas.

Is Expanding Foam Safe for Your Health?

Once fully cured, spray foam insulation is completely safe and does not pose health risks. It forms a solid, stable barrier that doesn’t release harmful chemicals, making it a reliable choice for improving insulation without compromising indoor air quality.

During installation, however, spray foam emits chemicals that can temporarily irritate the skin, eyes, and respiratory system. For this reason, our installers wear protective equipment and follow strict safety measures.

We recommend vacating the area for at least 24 to 48 hours after installation to allow the foam to cure fully. Once hardened, the insulation remains stable, preventing allergens, dust, and moisture from entering your home.
