We live in a 10 year old house with an unfinished basement. This past winter we noticed that there was some condensation behind the insulation and ended up taking everything down for a closer look. Everything was wet. What we realized was that when the house was built there wasn’t a proper seal with the vapor barrier and moisture was getting trapped. My first thought was to replace some of the insulation and properly seal again but decided that it was almost impossible to establish an effective seal so I looked for an alternative. Being an Engineer I spent a lot of time researching spray foam and the effectiveness. I then contacted Beyond Foam for a quote and discussed the condensation issues. Justice then came out within a few days and give us an accurate quote. I was expecting somewhere in the range of $7,000- 8000 for the entire basement (800-900 ish sq ft, including mechanical room) but it was considerably lower…. atleast half of that.
We decided to go ahead with the R12 spray foam but also ended up getting our basement finished in the process. We booked the spray foam date 2 months in advance and their Team was great. Justice answered all of my questions (and there were a lot) and Tammy confirmed the date and time before arrival. Donovan arrived 10 mins before, and was very friendly, and did a fantastic job. There was no mess or carryover on the 2x4’s- even the drywall folks commented on how well this was done.
Out of all of the basement selections, my wife was most excited about tiles and flooring etc but I was more excited about the spray foam and couldn’t wait to see the results once done! I highly recommend Beyond Foam for any job!
