BENEFITS OF SPRAY FOAM
Draft Resistant
Conventional insulation, such as fiberglass batt insulation, provides a poor barrier against air leakage since it is unlikely to fill in all cracks and seams. When professionally applied, spray foam insulation expands to seal virtually all spaces where air may escape or enter a structure. Drafts are stopped from coming in and air leaking out is eliminated! Therefore, the amount of energy needed to maintain a preferred indoor temperature is greatly reduced, resulting in energy savings. Medium density spray foam insulation acts as an insulation, air barrier and vapour barrier, all in one application.
Increase Structural Strength
Medium density spray foam insulation increases the structural strength of your home by over 200%. With spray foam insulation being applied into all cavities, a structure will become more rigid and as a result, issues such as settling and creaky floors will be moderated. In addition, spray foam insulation will not settle or shrink and adheres to almost any surface, including wood, metal, concrete and most plastics.
Improves Air Quality
Spray foam insulation in your home or business will improve air quality. A continuous, airtight seal prevents pollutants such as dust from invading a structure. Spray foam insulation exceeds all building codes for air barrier systems. In addition, spray foam insulation does not contain any loose particles that may adversely affect indoor air quality. Medium density spray foam insulation is also mould and moisture resistant, a particular concern when insulating a below grade structure such as a basement.
Moisture Resistant
Due to it’s non-porous nature, medium density spray foam insulation resists moisture penetration. By comparison, conventional fiberglass batt insulation is susceptible to moisture infiltration, which can drastically reduce it’s R – value and contribute to mould accumulation. When applied below grade, medium density spray foam insulation can eliminate the problem of damp or wet basement walls.
Environmentally Sound
Using spray foam insulation to insulate your home or business can contribute significantly to reducing the environmental stress faced by the world today. Spray foam insulation ensures that your home will maintain the highest standards of energy efficiency and as a result, reduce the carbon emissions produced by the burning of fossil fuels needed to heat and cool most buildings.
Reduces Noise
Having spray foam insulation installed in your home or business will reduce outside noise from infiltrating the indoor environment. The noise created by interior mechanical systems, such as HVAC systems, will also be reduced.
COMMON AREAS TO SPRAY
Under Roof
Free up space in your attic for some of the mechanical devices in your house or make an extra room for storage and/or living space.
Attic Floor
This is the most common area for heat loss in the winter and heat gain in the summer. By using spray foam at a 2″ depth to seal and form a superior airtight
vapour barrier while increasing r value and installing new insulation (blow-in) or a half pound foam you can expect to stop heat loss from the highest loss area in a building which gives you the best return for your money and is often done in 1 day.
Exterior & Interior Walls
In most older homes there is nothing insulating exterior walls or a sub-grade type of insulation at best with no vapor barrier at all allowing air to easily penetrate your house carrying with it allergens, dust and pollen, and with no insulation your heating/cooling costs are taking the hit. We can replace old insulation with the best in spray foam products and seal your home or building to save you money. For interior walls Spray foam will Easily sound proof floors, walls around bedrooms or mechanical rooms and around showers to keep the house peaceful, quiet and comfortable.
Sound Proofing
Easily sound proof floors, walls around bedrooms or mechanical rooms. and around showers to keep the house peaceful, quiet and comfortable.
Basements & Crawl Spaces
Another problem area is basements due to moist air commonly found in basements and crawl spaces. Batt insulation can be rendered useless very quickly and has been known to trap and hold moisture that can lead to rotting in the structure and mold which leads to health problems. Spray foam will not rot or mold and won’t be infiltrated by moisture and can actually fill and seal gaps and cracks to help stop moisture from getting in at all. You can feel safer knowing that mold and rot is not going to be a health issue for you and your family.

TESTIMONIALS
”Full span did a great job doing my new roof. It was a big job and they got it done very quickly & professionally. A couple of weeks after finishing, I had a tree fall on the new gutters, damaging them. Gave Kris a call and the next day, someone was there doing the repairs. Very happy with how the project turned out and will be using them again.
