I had a problem when I moved into a 7 year old house. The insulation in the basement was practically useless, so I researched the problem in magazines and on line. I decided that spray foam was the answer. I received five quotations out of seven requests.
Floyd Clark of Foam Rise Insulation was first to reply and appeared at my door within 2 days of my request. He was very professional during the quotation process, and gave me some useful advice to follow for the preparation of the basement for the foam.
It took another two weeks to get the other quotes together and I decided to accept Floyd’s offer. The quote from Foam Rise was not the least expensive nor the most expensive. I chose Floyd to do the job because he convinced me that he was experienced with the product, and because the references that he provided checked out with very good recommendations. I was also impressed with the fact that the person giving the quote is also the person doing the job.
Floyd agreed to fit my job into an already busy schedule. He showed up on time with an experienced helper. The job took a full day to complete. He did a thorough job and ensured that no spots were missed. I was checking the depth of spray throughout the day and with few exceptions the foam was thicker than requested. He sprayed a small area that was not part of the original quote and there was no extra charge. I paid the exact amount quoted and received everything I expected and then some.
I am very happy with the results, and I recommend Floyd and his product for this application.
- Approximate cost of services:
- $5,000.00
- Any advice to offer fellow homeowners facing a similar project?
- framing should be done before the foam is applied
