We recently worked with SNAP Construction after they reached out to inform us about rebate programs available through local energy companies, the federal government, and other sources to help improve home insulation. Layne came to our home and did an excellent job explaining the different rebate options, financing plans, and the entire insulation process. He made everything easy to understand and stress-free. Alexis and Tarik handled the actual work. They removed all of our old attic insulation, sealed any openings, and installed new insulation that helps repel mice and bugs. The next day, they returned to insulate the walls. They arrived on time, were respectful of our home and furnishings, and left everything clean when they were done. Overall, I’m very satisfied with the quality of work and professionalism from SNAP Construction. Highly recommend!

Snap Construction did a new roof and insulation for me this summer (2025). I’m happy I hired them and appreciated their emphasis on customer service. When determining if a company is reliable and trustworthy, the real test is when things go south. Any company can have great customer service when a project goes well. But not many companies hang in during the bad times. My project hit bad times (not the fault of the Snap team), and it showed just how good Snap Construction really is. My house is over one-hundred years old and packed with surprises and quirks. I hired Snap for a new roof and insulation. The end-result is fantastic, but there were unforeseen issues that made the process far more difficult than anyone wanted. Through these difficulties, I discovered that Snap Construction really is outstanding in customer service and problem-solving. They stuck with me no matter what came up. Many companies would have distanced themselves from me and the project. It is human nature to avoid difficult things. Other companies may have tried to cut their losses by backing out when the going got tough. But Snap and their crew never did. As the project dragged on, they never fatigued of answering my texts or addressing hurdles. I remember one evening in particular when I worried about a potentially exposed rafter. They answered my text (after hours) and showed up to ensure the roof was secure. Although the problems encountered were no fun, it never became a true nightmare because the Snap crew and I remained teammates. We each knew the other was acting honestly and in the best interest of the project. I saw first-hand that the Snap team was worthy of the trust I put in them. In addition to addressing the unforseen problems, Snap also performed well on all the other things that matter on a project. Their insulation team did a great job discussing a cold vs hot roof and what insulation would work best in my attic. And they made getting the rebate easy. They presented great options for shingles, and they contacted the manufacturer to answer my questions about how much sunlight the shingles reflected (for heat management in my upstairs). I saw Snap is a place of mutual respect, shown both to their customers and to fellow Snap employees. Teams have the best results when they work well together - so seeing the members of the Snap team work well with each other reassured me that the team was performing at their best. All crew members on site were kind to me and got along well with each other (which is uplifting to see). I appreciated that Snap does both roofing and insulation. Due to the nature of my project, it made sense to do these projects together. It was challenging to find a roof company that was also experienced in insulation, so I was happy to find that Snap does both. I even met at my site with both the roofing and insulation reps simultaneously when planning the project. I would like to especially thank Tim, Layne, Randy, and Josh for sticking it out and getting the project to completion.

Frequently Asked Questions — Spray Foam Insulation in Eagan

Is spray foam insulation worth the cost?
For most homeowners, yes. Spray foam creates an air-tight seal that traditional insulation cannot match, reducing energy bills by 15–35% annually. It also adds structural rigidity, acts as a moisture and vapor barrier, reduces outside noise, and can increase home resale value. The higher upfront cost compared to fiberglass is typically recovered within 3–7 years. One important note: because spray foam creates a very tight building envelope, proper mechanical ventilation is important to maintain healthy indoor air quality and prevent interior moisture buildup. This is typically handled by an Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV) — a system that brings fresh outside air in while pushing stale air out, recovering the energy from the outgoing air so you don't waste what you paid to heat or cool — or a Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV), which works similarly but is optimized for cold climates. A qualified contractor will assess whether your home needs ventilation upgrades as part of the installation.
How much does spray foam insulation cost?
Spray foam insulation typically costs $1.00–$3.00 per square foot installed, depending on the type and your location. Open-cell foam runs $0.44–$0.65 per board foot, while closed-cell foam costs $1.00–$2.00 per board foot. A typical 2,000 sq ft home attic costs $2,000–$6,000. Most homeowners recoup this investment within 3–7 years through energy savings of 15–35% annually.
What is the difference between open-cell and closed-cell spray foam?
Open-cell spray foam is softer, less dense, and less expensive. It expands significantly and is ideal for interior walls, attics, and soundproofing. Closed-cell spray foam is denser, stronger, and provides a moisture barrier — making it better for exterior applications, crawl spaces, and areas prone to flooding or humidity. Closed-cell also has a higher R-value per inch (R-6 to R-7 vs R-3.5 to R-4 for open-cell). One key difference: open-cell foam allows some vapor movement, while closed-cell acts as a vapor barrier — an important consideration for your home's ventilation needs.
How long does spray foam insulation last?
Spray foam insulation is one of the most durable insulation options available, with a lifespan of 80+ years when properly installed. Unlike fiberglass batting which can sag and settle over time, spray foam maintains its shape and insulating properties indefinitely. It will typically outlast the building it is installed in.
How do I find a qualified spray foam insulation contractor?
Look for contractors who are licensed, insured, and have verifiable reviews. Spray foam requires specialized equipment and training — improper installation can cause off-gassing, adhesion failure, or fire hazards. Ask for references, verify their insurance, and get at least 2–3 quotes. A qualified contractor will also assess your home's ventilation needs — a tightly sealed spray foam installation requires adequate mechanical ventilation to prevent moisture and indoor air quality issues. FoamMatch pre-screens all listed contractors for licensing and insurance so you can compare verified professionals in your area.
How long does spray foam installation take?
Most residential spray foam jobs take 1–2 days depending on the size of the area. A standard attic takes 4–8 hours. After spraying, the foam cures within 24 hours, though most contractors recommend waiting 24–72 hours before occupying the space due to off-gassing during the curing process.
Does spray foam insulation need to be replaced?
No — spray foam insulation does not need to be replaced under normal circumstances. Unlike fiberglass insulation which degrades over time, spray foam maintains its R-value and air sealing properties for the life of the building. The only reasons to remove or replace spray foam are water damage, renovation work, or improper original installation.
