Attics in Bloomington.
Open or closed cell spray foam for attics across central Indiana, applied where your attic actually needs the seal.
How we do it.
- If your ductwork is in the attic, we seal the roof deck.Foam goes on the underside of the roof, so the attic and your HVAC lines sit inside the seal.
- If it isn't, the attic floor can be sealed instead.Foam goes down onto the top of the ceiling below. Special situations get a look in person.
- Old insulation comes out first.Spray foam can't be installed correctly over it.
- Exposed foam is fine up there.In an attic, the foam can be left exposed.
What Bloomington buildings are like.
Bloomington is the largest town we cover in Monroe County, with 38,407 homes split between two eras — the middle of the stock dates to 1985. What we recommend depends on which half of the town a building sits in.

Foam and thickness.
| Foam | Where it goes | Typical thickness | R-value per inch |
|---|---|---|---|
| Open cell | Roof deck or attic floor | 6 in + | R-3.8 to 4.2 |
| Closed cell | Roof deck or attic floor | 3 in + | R-7.6 to 8.1 |
R-value measures how well insulation holds back heat. Higher is better. Closed cell is rigid and also blocks moisture; open cell is softer and dampens sound. Ranges are from Universal Polymers (UPC) data sheets, tested at 1 inch. We choose the foam for each job. See the data sheets
Questions.
Do you do attics in Bloomington?
Yes. Bloomington is 77.9 miles from our base in Anderson, and attics is one of the twenty things we spray. That is a longer run, so it suits larger projects — pole barns, commercial buildings and new construction. We travel up to three hours for those. Call and tell us about the job. Tell us about the building and we'll quote it.
Which foam goes in a Bloomington attic?
Monroe County is in climate zone 4, the milder of the two zones Indiana spans. We spray both open cell (R-3.8 to 4.2 per inch) and closed cell (R-7.6 to 8.1 per inch), and which one a attic needs depends on moisture and what the foam is going on. We tell you when we quote.
