Excellence in Insulation
Foam Insulation services
At iFoam, we're renowned for providing premier foam insulation services. Additionally, we are proud to offer a comprehensive suite of customized insulation solutions to fit every home or building. Each service is bolstered by our unwavering commitment to maximizing energy efficiency and creating comfortable living and working spaces.
Commercial and Residential Insulation Services
Spray Foam Insulation
The bedrock of our services, spray foam insulation is more than a product—it's a powerful tool for combating heat transfer and, subsequently, your rising energy costs. With superior thermal resistance, this insulation is your best defense against the outdoor weather, offering year-round comfort. Our technicians specialize in both open-cell and closed-cell spray foam insulation. The open-cell type is lighter and more flexible, making it an excellent choice for insulating irregular nooks and crannies. On the other hand, the denser closed-cell type is a stellar performer when resisting heat transfer and moisture intrusion.
Depending on your specific needs—your budget, area of application or your building's unique structural elements—our expert team can help you decide which spray foam is most suitable for you.
Blown-in Insulation
Designed for expansive spaces, blown-in insulation offers quick and efficient coverage. Perfect for attics or wall cavities, this service involves the application of loose-fill insulation blown into the desired area using specialized equipment. This process ensures a seamless, thorough coverage, effectively plugging even the tiniest gaps that can contribute to heat loss. Despite its high efficiency, blow-in insulation is cost-effective and quick to install, reducing the time our team has to spend in your home and ensuring minimal disruption to your daily routine.
Vapor Barriers
Vapor barriers are crucial in controlling moisture levels in buildings. They prevent moisture from passing through walls, ceilings, and floors, reducing the risk of mold, mildew, and structural damage. This contributes to improved indoor air quality and prolongs the integrity of building materials. By maintaining a dry environment, vapor barriers also enhance insulation efficiency, leading to better energy conservation and comfort within living spaces.
Residential Retrofit
The often-overlooked crawl space can be a surprising source of energy inefficiency and a gateway for pests and moisture. Through our crawlspace retrofitting service, we aim to turn this underappreciated space into an asset that works in your favor. By insulating and sealing your crawl space, we can block cold drafts in winter, keep out excessive heat in summer and create an additional barrier against pests and moisture.
Given that up to 70% of heat can infiltrate your home through the roof, our attic retrofitting service has become a crucial component of our service suite. By insulating your attic properly, we are effectively building a powerful barrier against heat transfer, potentially yielding substantial energy savings for you—up to 40%. But our attic retrofitting service isn't just about installing insulation. Our experts will also assess your attic's ventilation needs, ensuring a balanced system to prevent moisture build-up, which can lead to mold growth and structural damage.
Say Goodbye to Sky High Bills
Bug Barriers
Bug barriers offer effective protection against pests, creating a shield that prevents insects and other critters from entering homes or buildings. This proactive approach not only enhances the comfort and cleanliness of living spaces but also reduces the need for chemical pest control methods, contributing to a healthier environment. By blocking entry points, bug barriers help maintain the integrity of a building's structure and insulation, ensuring a safer and more secure habitat.
Air Sealing
Even the best insulation can be undermined by air leaks, which is why we also offer air sealing services. By sealing the various cracks, gaps and holes in your home's structure, we can create a tighter building envelope, enhancing the performance of your insulation and further increasing your home’s energy efficiency.
Fireproofing
Insulation plays a pivotal role in fireproofing homes by using materials that are resistant to fire, which can slow the spread of flames and reduce smoke levels during a fire. This added layer of protection helps to safeguard the structural integrity of a building and provides residents more time to evacuate safely. By incorporating fire-resistant insulation into your home's construction, you enhance its overall safety and resilience against fire hazards, contributing significantly to a safer living environment.
Soundproofing
Insulation significantly enhances soundproofing in homes and commercial spaces by absorbing and blocking sound transmission. This creates quieter, more peaceful environments, essential for residential comfort and productivity in workplaces. By reducing noise from outside and between different rooms or floors, insulation contributes to a more serene and focused setting, making it a vital aspect of building design for improved acoustic performance.
Insulation Removal
Existing insulation can degrade or become damaged over time, reducing its effectiveness. In such cases, it must be removed before new insulation can be installed. Our trained technicians are adept at safely and effectively removing all types of existing insulation. This service also includes thoroughly cleaning the area and preparing your home for the new and improved insulation that will enhance your home's comfort and energy efficiency.
Your Secret Weapon for a Comfortable Home
In addition to residential insulation services, we also offer Commercial Insulation Services. We understand that commercial buildings require different approaches and solutions than residential ones. Our team is experienced in working with various commercial buildings, from small offices to large warehouses, retail outlets and more. We offer a comprehensive insulation solution that includes both the building envelope and individual spaces within the building, providing an energy-efficient, comfortable and productive environment.
Energy audits are another key component of our service repertoire. We believe that before any insulation work begins, it's essential to understand your home's current energy performance. Our professional energy audits identify areas of energy inefficiency, enabling us to suggest targeted insulation solutions that will offer the greatest benefits.
Insulation is our business, but education is also part of our service. We want homeowners to understand the importance of proper insulation and the difference it can make in their lives. From pre-project consultations to clear explanations of our work and post-project follow-ups, we're here to answer your questions and provide the information you need to make informed decisions about your home's insulation.

According to the Department of Energy, the best places to insulate in a home are the attic, the exterior walls, the floors above unheated spaces, and the foundation walls. Insulating these areas can help improve the energy efficiency, comfort, and durability of your home. However, the type and amount of insulation you need may vary depending on your climate, house design, and personal preference. You can use the Home Energy Saver tool to get customized recommendations for your home. You can also consult a professional insulation contractor to get an expert opinion and installation service.
The amount of insulation needed for a home depends on several factors, such as the climate zone, the type of insulation, and the location of the insulation in the home. Here are some general guidelines to help you estimate how much insulation you need: Insulation levels are specified by R-value, which is a measure of insulation’s ability to resist heat traveling through it. The higher the R-value, the better the thermal performance of the insulation. The list below shows the recommended R-values for different climate zones and locations in the home, based on the 2021 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) Residential Provisions.
