Serving Garden City and nearby communities.

Insulation added after the fact never performs as well as foam installed during the build. Gaps around wiring and plumbing get sealed before drywall goes up, not patched around it years later.

Garden City Spray Foam Insulation works with builders and homeowners on new construction projects, which have picked up along the Chinden corridor as older industrial lots get redeveloped into new residential and studio buildings. We coordinate around the framing schedule so insulation happens at the right point, not whenever there's an opening.

Construction-Grade Sealant — Closes smaller gaps around new framing and penetrations.
Insulation Certification Labels — Document type and R-value for the building inspector.
Protective Floor Covering — Keeps subfloors clean from overspray during install.
Energy Code Compliant Foam — Selected specifically to meet current Idaho energy code targets.

FAQs

New Construction Spray Foam FAQs

How does foam insulation fit into the construction timeline?

It happens after framing and rough-in, before drywall. We coordinate directly with the builder's schedule to avoid delays.

What does new construction insulation cost per square foot?

It runs less per square foot than retrofitting an existing structure since there's full access to every cavity. Ask for a quote based on your square footage and foam mix.

Do I need a separate permit for insulation in new construction?

Insulation is typically covered under the overall building permit for the new structure, not a separate permit. Confirm with Garden City's building department for your specific project.

Can I mix open-cell and closed-cell in one new build?

This is common. Exterior walls might get open-cell while rim joists and below-grade areas get closed-cell.

Why shouldn't a builder DIY insulation on a new build?

Inspectors check for proper coverage and R-value documentation. DIY foam without the right equipment risks failing inspection and delaying the whole project.
