Narrow Cavity Wall Foam Insulation

My bungalow was built in 1954, and it was cold and drafty in the winter. We have a room above the garage that was particularly cold, with a closet that was extremely cold and drafty.
In the main floor and room above the garage, there were a lot of air drafts coming from the baseboards on the main floor, even though our basement is finished with insulation and vapor barrier. Don ( the technical sales person) explained to me that of that was the air movement inside the "narrow cavities"
Don was very helpful and explained in detail the pros and cons of the "narrow cavity insulation" process. We were very skeptical at first but decided to go ahead. Here is a list of things we noticed immediately after installation:
- the drafts coming from the baseboards disappeared completely. This was important as we were installing new floors. So there will be no more condensation on the floors
- all exterior walls are now warm
- the room on top of the garage and it's closet are now at a very pleasant temperature. We have two air outlets there and will likely be closing one.
In summary I can say:
- the improvement in comfort was significant and immediate (1 day with little inconvenience)
- the cost was significantly less than framing and insulating as other companies suggested and quoted
- the green saver installers plugged the holes with drywall compound. A few days later I sanded and painted them.

If I had to do it again, I would do the exact same job. I'm very satisfied with the work and the results.

Hi Ricardo,

Thank you for your review. The narrow cavity foam is an excellent technology for older homes, and I'm glad you noticed the benefits right from the get-go!
