Residential Spray Foam in Hobbs

Insulating Hobbs homes against wind, dust, and summer heat

Plenty of Hobbs houses are one-story ranch homes with low attics, blown insulation that has settled over the years, and gaps around top plates, can lights, and duct runs. Out on the Llano Estacado, spring wind pushes dust through those gaps, and in summer the attic bakes and the heat comes straight down through the ceiling. Ductwork running through that attic is working in the hottest part of the house.

Spray foam closes the gaps and insulates in one step. In most attics we spray open-cell foam under the roof deck, which pulls the ducts inside the insulated space. Closed-cell goes where you need more per inch or a moisture barrier: crawl spaces, rim joists, tight rooflines, and attached garages or shops with metal walls. On new homes we foam the walls and roofline before drywall. On the visit we look at how your house is built and tell you which foam fits where.

Typical home insulation jobs in Hobbs

  • Open-cell foam under the roof deck of ranch-style homes
  • Closed-cell foam in crawl spaces and along rim joists
  • New-construction walls and rooflines before drywall
  • Attached garages and shops that swing hot and cold
  • Additions and converted garages that never felt comfortable

What we plan around in Hobbs

  • Spring wind driving dust through gaps at top plates and outlets
  • Summer attic heat pushing down through the ceiling
  • Ductwork running through hot, unconditioned attics
  • Hard freezes on clear winter nights out on the plains

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Walk the house

    We look at the attic, walls, and crawl space and recommend open-cell or closed-cell foam for each.

  2. Step 2

    Prep

    Floors, windows, and anything nearby get covered, and the work area is ventilated.

  3. Step 3

    Spray

    Foam goes on to the thickness in the estimate, sealing gaps as it expands.

  4. Step 4

    Check and clean up

    We check coverage, clean up, and tell you when the space is ready to use again.

Cold nights come fast at this altitude, and most of the heat a house loses in winter goes out through the attic. Here is what to look at up there before the first freeze, and what it means.

Residential Spray Foam in Hobbs: common questions

Most Hobbs attics do well with open-cell under the roof deck: it fills the rafter bays and seals air at a lower cost per inch. Closed-cell is denser and blocks moisture, so it goes in crawl spaces, on rim joists, against metal, and where there isn’t room for enough open-cell. Many houses get some of each.
If your ductwork or furnace is in the attic, the roof deck is usually the better spot, because it puts that equipment inside the insulated space. If the attic is empty and vented, the attic floor can work. We’ll look at what is up there and explain the trade-off before you decide.
Yes. We insulate homes in Hobbs, North Hobbs, Nadine, Monument, Lovington, and Eunice. Tell us where the house is and roughly how big it is and we’ll set up a time to look at it.
