Spray foam insulation in Lubbock TX - rooms that stop losing air through the attic

Hot upstairs, drafty rooms or a power bill that keeps climbing? Spray foam seals the gaps while it insulates, and we plan your day away.

Spray foam insulation fills the exposed wall framing around a plastic-covered window in an unfinished room.

Is spray foam insulation worth it for my Lubbock house?

Spray foam insulation in Lubbock is foam our crew sprays into an attic, a wall or a crawl space, where it fills the space and does an excellent job of stopping air from leaking in and out, so a hot room upstairs or a cold floor usually evens out.

The price mostly comes down to how many square feet we're covering, which foam the spot calls for, whether old insulation has to come out first and whether the foam needs a covering over it. The schedule turns less on the spraying than on finding days your household can be out of the house, so I'll give you your own figure and a sense of timing in a written estimate after I've looked at the space and gone over what I see.

Before I'd put foam in, I want to know how old the house is, how many inches of insulation are already up there and what shape they're in. If I find a roof leak or old wiring, I'll tell you to get that fixed first, because foam sprayed over it only hides the problem.

What happens after you call us about spray foam in Lubbock?

I take whatever time your questions need before you agree to anything, so here's how a spray foam job goes with us, from the first look to the last walk-through.

I come out and look at it myself

I've run this business since 2021, and I'm the one who comes out, up in the attic or down in the crawl space with a light. I talk through what I find while you're standing there, then send you a written estimate so you can think it over.

Our own crew does the spraying

The people working in your house are our own crew, and the same crew handles the prep, the spraying and the cleanup so nothing gets handed off halfway. We're licensed and insured.

I walk the finished job with you

Once the house is aired out and you're back in, I go through the work with you so you can see where the foam went and how the edges were done. Satisfaction guaranteed on every job.

How we do spray foam insulation

The big part of a spray foam job is planning your time out of the house, so we pick the date with you and go over the safety steps well before the crew pulls up. If anyone at home has asthma, allergies or a skin condition, federal consumer safety staff say to read the product information closely and think about other insulation, and I'd rather talk through those options with you than push foam. On the day itself we get the house ready, clear out old material that shouldn't stay, spray, and cover the foam where the maker requires it, and the steps below explain why each one matters.

Foam isn't the only answer, and I'll tell you when it isn't the right one. It costs more and seals air while it insulates, but in a lot of attics, sealing the gaps and topping up with blown-in insulation, loose fill we blow in through a hose, does the job just as well for less. Foam usually comes out ahead when your ductwork runs through the attic, and either way we can help you sort out the rest of your attic insulation.

  • Planning your days away and the safety steps before the crew arrives
  • Open-cell or closed-cell foam, matched to the spot it's going
  • Foam in attics, sloped ceilings, walls and crawl spaces
  • Gaps around can lights, pipes and the attic hatch filled as we spray
  • Cleanup and airing out before you come back inside

How a spray foam day goes

Most insulation problems start when a step gets skipped, so here's each step and the reason we do it.

  1. Get you and the house ready

    You'll have a place to stay lined up before the crew arrives, so nobody's scrambling that morning. We cover floors and anything near the work that isn't getting foam.

  2. Clear out what shouldn't stay

    Old insulation that got soaked or is full of droppings comes out first, because foam over it keeps the problem in your house. Anything we find that needs fixing, we show you before going further.

  3. Spray to full depth, edges included

    A lot of jobs end up thick in the middle and thin at the edges, which is backward, since the edges are where air sneaks in. We work the corners and the edges as carefully as the open middle.

  4. Cover the foam where the maker calls for it

    Depending on the foam's maker, it may need a protective fire covering over it. We follow the maker's instructions for your product, so that layer goes in when it's required.

Spray foam questions we hear in Lubbock

How much does spray foam insulation cost per square foot in Lubbock?

Installed spray foam across the US usually runs about $1 to $5 per square foot, and that's a national market figure, not our price. Open-cell foam sits toward the low end and closed-cell toward the high end, so the foam your space needs moves the number a lot. For a Lubbock price on your house, I'll measure the space and put it in a written estimate.

Should I use open-cell or closed-cell spray foam in my attic or walls?

Closed-cell foam, the dense kind that slows moisture, works well in an attic sealed off from outside air and in a ceiling that follows the roofline, because it packs more insulating value into each inch where there isn't much room. Walls take more thought, since open-cell foam blocks air but lets water vapor through, while closed-cell at normal thickness keeps a frame wall from drying well to the outside. I'll tell you which one I'd use in each spot and why when I'm out there.

How long do we have to stay out of the house after spray foam insulation?

Plan to be out while the foam goes in and for at least 24 hours afterward, which is what federal consumer safety staff advise. EPA guidance adds that you shouldn't come back until the foam has finished curing, the house has been aired out well and it's been cleaned thoroughly. We go over your re-entry time, the point when the kids and pets can come home, as part of setting the date.

Who is responsible for following Lubbock's building laws on an insulation job?

The City of Lubbock holds every permit holder, contractor or homeowner, responsible for getting the permit and knowing the laws that cover the work. When a job needs a permit, we get it from the city where the house sits and take care of the paperwork. If we aren't sure whether yours does, we call that city's building office and ask before we start.

Spray foam in Lubbock and the cities around it

Lubbock has put the residential building code, an energy code and its own changes to the residential code into city ordinances. The city treats those as minimum standards, and not meeting them is a Class C misdemeanor, so the foam in your house has to clear them. An older Texas energy code guide puts Lubbock in Climate Zone 3, the zone the energy code uses when it sets insulation levels here.

We're based in Lubbock and work here and in the cities around it, including Wolfforth, Slaton, Levelland, Plainview, Littlefield and Brownfield. Most of our calls come from homeowners with rooms that won't stay even or attics that have seen better days, some come from business owners with a building to insulate, and we do the job the same way wherever the house sits.

Call us about spray foam for your house

Have the area you want insulated, its rough square footage and any health concerns at home in mind when you call (806) 370-4846, and we can talk through foam type and safety from that first call.

If you're still deciding between foam and sealing with blown-in, send your questions over and I'll go through them with you, twice if that helps.
