Spray Foam Insulation in Omaha, NE

Spray Foam Insulation Omaha works across a city of 203,215 housing units, counted in the 2020 census, that was built in layers. The river wards and midtown hold houses from the late 1800s and early 1900s; the suburbs of the postwar years ring them; and since the 1970s most growth has gone west, where West Omaha is now home to most of the city's people. Each layer leaks in its own way, and we plan the insulation around which one your house belongs to.

Older neighborhoods

Two-story frame houses and brick homes near downtown and in midtown often have empty exterior walls, open stud bays running into the attic, and a basement rim joist with nothing on it. Dense-pack walls, attic sealing and closed-cell foam on the rim are the usual plan.

Postwar and 1970s houses

Ranches and split-levels have some attic insulation and usually not enough, plus leaky rim joists and cantilevered floors. A split-level's lower level often runs cold for that reason.

West Omaha subdivisions

Newer two-stories tend to be tighter, but bonus rooms over the garage and vaulted great rooms are common comfort complaints. Foam in kneewalls, garage ceilings and shallow vaults is the fix.

Weather on both ends

Omaha's climate is hot-summer humid continental. July humidity averages around 70%, the city hits 90F on about 29 days a year, and January lows average 15.2F at Eppley Airfield, with a record of -32F. Storms are part of the record too: the 1913 Easter Sunday tornado wrecked much of midtown, and a 1975 tornado and blizzard did more than $100 million in damage.
