FOAMCO, Inc Before & After Photos

This before and after shows wooden slopes bare without insulation and then the slopes sprayed with spray foam. Spray foam insulation will lower your energy costs and make your home more comfortable.

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. 

Foamco was hired by Bear Mountain Inc, in Tompkins Grove, to spray closed cell and open cell foam in the roof slopes and exterior areas that were in desperate need of insulation. The Inn had recently undergone a renovation, yet little to no inslation was installed. Foamco's expert installers were able to reach every accessible area to seal the thermal envelope and bring their heating and cooling costs down tremendously! Now guests visiting the Bear Mountain Inn will be more comfortable than ever!

After acquiring the multi-family home, the new owners made the bold decision to completely renovate it from the ground up. They embarked on a comprehensive overhaul that involved framing, wiring, and various other tasks. Once these crucial initial steps were completed, they enlisted the services of Foamco for insulation installation, a pivotal aspect of their investment property enhancement.

Our project commenced by meticulously clearing the area of all debris. Following this, we strategically placed plastic barriers on the ground, around mechanical components, and windows to ensure that no spray foam would inadvertently reach these sensitive areas. With the groundwork set, our insulation process began with a focus on the roof.

Having established the necessary preparation, our expert team expertly applied a substantial 12" layer of Open Cell Foam to the underside of the roof. This application yielded an impressive R-value of 49, greatly enhancing the energy efficiency of the structure. Progressing from the roof, we extended our insulation efforts to the exterior walls, targeting the space between the third-floor ceiling and the roof. Here, we skillfully added a 5.5" layer of Open Cell Foam, resulting in an R-value of 22.

The outcome of this project is not only a testament to the owners' commitment to comprehensive renovation but also a strategic investment in the property's future. With these renovations in place, the property is primed for rental, boasting improved energy efficiency that translates to lower utility costs. Moreover, the home's occupants will enjoy a heightened level of comfort. These meticulous improvements position the property as an attractive option in the rental market while ensuring a sustainable, cost-effective operation.

This client contacted Foamco on a Friday night as he needed an emergency spray foam installation of 4.25 closed-Cell insulation installed over the weekend before it became warm. We ended up insulating the roof of his 4600 sqft barn, which he is in the process of building. He contacted us to get the job done for him due to our reputation of being the biggest spray foam company with a reputation of being able to get the job done effectively and efficiently. 

After he had contacted us on Friday evening we accommodated him and set him up with a scheduled installation day of Sunday, January 12th. Unfortunately due to the rainy weather that day we were unable to apply the closed-Cell insulation to the roof. As soon as we realized that we were not going to be able to apply the closed cell insulation to his barn roof on Sunday we coordinated logistics with him to reschedule his installation date to the next day, Monday, January 13th.  Even though we had to push his installation date back a day we were still able to take care of him how we wanted to, specifically by sending four rigs, which all installers had an average of 15 years with the company. Due to everyone's experience of installation, we were able to get the project done in one day. 

Once we completed the project the client let us know how pleased he was with everything from his first contact with us, to the completion of the project. He was so pleased with everything that he even let us know that when he is ready to insulate the walls of his barn he will be giving us a call.
