    Spray-foam insulation offers exceptional energy efficiency, air sealing, and moisture control, making it an excellent choice for homes in coastal regions such as Plymouth, Falmouth, Hingham, Duxbury, and Carver.

  • Is spray-foam insulation better than fiberglass or cellulose?

    Indeed, spray-foam insulation provides a higher R-value per inch, enhanced air sealing properties, and greater long-term durability compared to conventional fiberglass or cellulose options. It is particularly well-suited for attics, basements, crawlspaces, and new construction projects throughout the Cape Cod and South Shore regions.

  • How do I know if my home needs more insulation?
