Your exterior walls represent the largest surface area of your home's thermal envelope. When properly insulated with spray foam, they create an effective barrier against Oklahoma's temperature extremes—keeping you comfortable while reducing energy costs.

Whether you're building new, renovating, or upgrading an existing home, professional wall insulation is one of the most impactful improvements you can make for long-term comfort and efficiency.

Spray foam not only meets code requirements but typically exceeds them significantly, providing better comfort and energy savings.

Benefits of Spray Foam Wall Insulation

Complete Air Sealing

Eliminates drafts by sealing around electrical boxes, pipes, and other penetrations that fiberglass can't address.

Moisture Management

Closed-cell foam prevents moisture infiltration that can lead to mold, mildew, and structural damage.

Noise Reduction

Both open and closed-cell foam reduce sound transmission from outside traffic, neighbors, and weather.

No Settling or Sagging

Unlike fiberglass, spray foam maintains its position and R-value for the life of your home.
