Job completed for New Construction Wall Insulation in Lexington, KY

Completion date:

2022-07-14

Location:

Lexington,

KY

Why did the customer contact us?

The customer wanted spray foam insulation for the walls of their new construction project because of the air sealing benefits of spray foam insulation compared to other forms of insulation. The customer was interested in comfort and energy savings that spray foam insulation provides.

Solutions provided:

We installed 4 nominal inches of open-cell spray foam in the wall cavities, then shaved the excess foam flush with the studs so the walls are ready for drywall.

Getting a new Lexington build tight from day one

The cheapest time to get insulation right is while the walls are open, because changing it later means tearing out finished surfaces. Humid summer nights around Lexington keep cool surfaces right at the dew point, which is when condensation forms. Rim joists and top plates are where many new homes leak the most air, and they are easy to reach before drywall. Foam seals framing joints as it is applied, so the house is tighter from the first day instead of after years of caulking and patching.
