About Kitchener Spray Foam Insulation

The Quote Is Where Good Work Starts

A clear quote protects you before any foam is sprayed. Ours lists the foam for each area, the inches we plan to reach and the square footage we measured. If a basement wall gets three inches of closed cell and the attic gets open cell on the ceiling, the quote says so in plain words.

That layout lets you compare our price with any other quote, line by line. If something changes once the work starts, such as a hidden wall that needs more foam, we stop and explain it before going ahead.

Depth And Temperature Are Checked On Every Job

Foam has to go onto a surface that is warm and dry enough, and it has to be built up in layers. Foam sprayed too cold or too thick in one pass can shrink and pull away from the framing. We read the surface temperature before the first pass and gauge the depth as it builds.

At the end, you see the depth readings. Whatever depth the quote promised is the depth sitting in your walls, roof deck or rim joists.

Older Kitchener Homes Have Their Own Weak Spots

Kitchener grew quickly as a factory town before it took its current name in 1916. The brick houses from those years, the wartime homes built after the Second World War and the bungalows and split-levels that came later each leak in different places. We know what to look for in each one.

In a Victoria Park brick home we expect hollow walls. In a story-and-a-half house near St. Mary's we expect cold knee walls and a crawl space. In a 1970s home in Forest Heights we expect leaky rim joists and a thin attic. Knowing that ahead of time makes the visit faster and the quote more accurate.

Good Foam Needs Good Prep

Good foam needs a clean surface. Old batts, dust and failed foam are stripped out ahead of spraying, and we fix small gaps that foam alone should not fill. We also cover floors, windows and anything that cannot be moved, and set up fans for fresh air.

When the job is done, we bag the trimmings, vacuum the work area and haul the waste away. You get your space back the same day, ready for drywall or a coating where one is needed.

Homes, Rentals And Businesses

We work for house owners, landlords with older rentals and owners of offices, shops and warehouses. A rental duplex near downtown and a steel building off Victoria Street both get the same written quote and the same depth checks. The size of the job does not change how carefully it is done.
