FOAMCO, Inc Before & After Photos

This newly built house was in the process of being completed by the contractor. Once everything was up to code they needed to have the house insulated before laying both sheet rock and other materials. Foamco was contacted to lay spray foam insulation. We were chosen to do this due to our high quality of workmanship, professionalism, time of install, as well the fact that the insulation we use has the highest R-rating available to keep both the home and owners warm/cool year-round. 

This customer wanted to make sure their home would be as efficient as possible. Our team used closed cell spray foam on this job to ensure this homeowner would get the performance they desired in their true 2 x 4 framing. 

The homeowner was struggling with high utility bills for her home and barn, which were built in the late 1930s or early 1940s. The thermal envelope was inefficient, causing heat loss and high energy consumption.

Upon inspection of the homeowner's properties, our team discovered a major issue. Both her home and barn were losing significant amounts of energy due to their stone walls and rim joists lacking insulation altogether. This created an open thermal envelope, allowing cold air to flow from downstairs to upstairs, making the living space uncomfortable and causing high energy bills.

To resolve this issue, Foamco took a comprehensive approach. Firstly, we protected the mechanicals in the homeowner's basement and prepared the area for spray foam insulation. We then applied two inches of closed-cell spray foam to the interior of the stone foundation walls, followed by three inches of closed-cell spray foam to their rim joists. This meticulous approach enabled us to fully seal the thermal envelope of the home, preventing any further energy loss.

The results of the project were truly remarkable. The homeowner noticed a significant improvement in the comfort level of their home, with stable indoor temperatures and no more drafts or cold spots. The most impressive benefit, however, was the dramatic drop in their utility bills.

Thanks to the comprehensive insulation solution provided by Foamco, the homeowner now enjoys improved air quality and a more energy-efficient living environment. They are thrilled with the outcome of the project and wish they had completed it years ago. At Foamco, we take pride in delivering solutions that provide both immediate and long-term benefits to our clients.

This homeowner was referred to us by a local mold remediation contractor. The original reason that they reached out to us is that their crawl space and basement were extremely wet. Because of this serious mold formed. 

Due to the excess amount of water, the structural integrity of their home was in complete disarray. Because of how forgone their home was the best option was to knock the home down and start from scratch.

Once they had knocked their existing home down and rebuilt a new cape cod style home, they contacted Foamco to insulate their attic, second floor and basement. To ensure that this home was up to code, we sprayed seven inches of closed-cell spray foam in the exposed slopes of the main attic. Once completed, we moved onto the main beam of the attic. Here we sprayed three inches of closed-cell spray foam on average to seal the thermal envelope of the home.

Once the attic was complete we turned our attention to the second floor. Here we sprayed three inches of closed-cell spray foam in two exterior walls of the two gable walls, as well as the exterior walls of four dormers. Finally, before calling this project complete we sprayed three inches of closed-cell in the basement. Specifically in the rim joists.

Since completing this project the homeowners have noticed a tremendous decrease in their energy costs as well the comfort level of their home. Since insulating their home they have barely had to turn on the heat during this extremely cold fall that we have been having in upstate New York.
