BURNABY SPRAY FOAM & INSULATION

Spray foam insulation outperforms traditional batt insulation by providing superior thermal, air and moisture barriers, enhancing soundproofing, and increasing structural strength. It effectively seals gaps and cracks, improving energy efficiency and comfort.

Yes, spray foam insulation is safe if reputable products are used and they are installed by a professional trained and certified firm. Once the product is fully cured, it is free from harmful chemicals, ensuring a secure environment for you and your family.  Our brand of spray foam meets the stringent requirements of GREENGUARD Gold, thus ensuring occupant safety through improved indoor air quality.

When properly applied, spray foam insulation is expected to last the lifetime of your home. Its durability and effectiveness do not diminish over time, offering long-term benefits.

While DIY kits are available, it is highly recommended to have spray foam insulation applied by certified professionals. This ensures proper installation, safety, and maximum effectiveness.

While spray foam is expected to last for the life expectancy of your home, not all conventional insulation types offer that level of durability. Traditional batt and loose fill insulation can be impacted by moisture intrusion, humidity, insects, rodents, and other comparable factors. The signs of wear should be notable (discolouration, deformation, smell), but if you require an expert opinion, do not hesitate to contact the insulation professionals at Greer Spray Foam to arrange a free site visit and estimate.

Spray foam in general has higher install costs than traditional batt insulation, but due to the product’s superior performance, the expectation is the additional costs will pay for themselves over a period of years. The exact cost of spray foam varies widely depending on the application, thickness, quantity, and difficulty factor. The insulation expert’s at Greer can not only work with homeowners to determine the costs of spray foam unique to their project or renovation, but we can also provide various insulation options and cost savings where available by offering combination services that utilize spray foam where required, but also incorporate more traditional insulations where suitable to keep costs down.

In Burnaby, homeowners face unique challenges due to the region's diverse climate and architectural styles. The city experiences a range of temperatures and moisture levels throughout the year, which can significantly influence the performance and efficiency of home insulation.

In areas like North Burnaby, where homes are exposed to colder winds and higher humidity, spray foam insulation offers superior moisture resistance and thermal retention compared to traditional materials. This ensures that homes remain warm and dry during the damp, chilly winters. Similarly, in South Burnaby, where temperatures can vary widely, the air-sealing properties of spray foam help maintain a consistent indoor climate, enhancing comfort and reducing heating and cooling costs.

Burnaby's mix of older homes and new developments also necessitates flexible insulation solutions that can be effectively applied in both retrofit projects and new constructions. Spray foam's versatility makes it an ideal choice for sealing nooks and crannies in older buildings, ensuring they meet modern insulation standards, while also providing state-of-the-art insulation for new homes.

Understanding these localized needs, our company specializes in high-quality, durable spray foam insulation that adapts to Burnaby’s specific environmental and architectural conditions, ensuring optimal energy efficiency and comfort in your home.
