We recently had to remove/replace all our attic insulation, due to animal intrusion/damage. Radiant Eagle quoted a better price to do a more complete job than the animal control company, and were able to get the work done sooner (called on Thursday, work completed on Monday) as well. Jesus was very thorough and helpful with the bid process, and the crew were tremendously diligent and professional. The insulation in our spec-built neighborhood home is now much better than new. Both the bid and the work were documented with photos, and we were invoiced exactly the price bid. A totally unforseen project for us, but a great vendor experience!

Lisa Leu★★★★★6 months ago

Radiant Eagle installed turbine vents and blew insulation in our roof. From start to finish this company was professional. They explained the work, the reason why they were making the suggestions and the billing. We have already noticed an improvement in the comfort of our home. It remains cooler in warm weather and the air conditioner does not run as much. We highly recommend this company!

Jeremy Dugger★★★★★2 years ago

Super impressed with Radiant Eagle. My home builder didn’t insulate my garage while building before finishing the sheetrock which left my garage fridge freezing up in the winter, and overheating in the summer, not to mention the impact on our vehicles or thermal barrier to our living space. Jesus came to give me an estimate the same day I called him to fix the problem, and his team injected insulation into the finished walls and attic the next day. The team was awesome, did great work, and was a pleasure to meet. They really went above and beyond to do our job right. Thanks Radiant Eagle!!!

Koala was a great experience from start to finish. The quote came with a thorough explanation of what we needed and also didn't need, in case another company tried to upsell us. They came the next week for installation and were very professional. They were done in 2 hours and took before and after pictures for us. I'd definitely recommend them.

K O★★★★★6 months ago

We are very happy with the work the Koala team did for us. From start to finish we knew exactly what was being done and when. Communication was great. They provided very detailed before and after pics of all the work that was done. David, Matt & Ryan were great to work with. We are looking forward to a cooler & warmer house now that we have all new insulation and venting for the attic. Thanks again guys!

Anthony Bisignano★★★★★2 weeks ago

Koala Insulation did an outstanding job on my home project. They added R-50 blown insulation to the attic over the garage, sealed the top plate between the garage and living area, and replaced the insulated duct to our master bath fan. The team was professional, efficient, and represented Koala Insulation exceptionally well. They completed everything in under two hours and left the area spotless. Highly recommend Koala Insulation for anyone looking for quality, reliable insulation work!

We have hired Tillotson for two different pole barn / post frame insulation jobs. Recently, they completed this 36’x40’ project and painted the foam black. I love how it turned out and especially enjoyed working with their team. Great projects and great people. Posted before/during and after pictures.

H. L. C. (CENTRAL EYE CARE)★★★★★4 months ago

We have relied on Tillotson Enterprises for our roofing needs for over 35 years and receive outstanding service.

Carla Lutz★★★★★a year ago

I did not receive any services from Tillotson other than from a representative who came to my home to give me an estimate on lifting various sections of concrete. He was courteous and professional, but the main reason he is getting 5-stars is that he was very honest. The biggest drawback to hiring Tillotson was going to be the cost of transportation from Kearney to Sidney. I did try to find other people in Sidney who were interested, but I couldn't find anyone to commit. I would definitely hire Tillotson for work if it wasn't for the distance and travel costs.

We had Mike come over and inspect our house. He was thorough and honest and did an excellent job of explaining all of the different ways in which we can improve the r value of our house. Very communicative, we used text to go back and forth. On the day his team came over and worked, it went very smoothly. They were here for about 6 hours and there were no issues. Mike's professionalism is something that most businesses should strive for. If Mike ever wanted a side business, he could have one explaining how to do customer service well.

Melanie★★★★★a year ago

Mike was so thorough and informative beginning to end. Mike fixed some roof vent holes that were too small & some other issues we had with our attic. Him & his team did a great job, very professional. I would say hands down the most professional company my husband and I have worked with. I would recommend to anyone and already have.

Garrett Johnson★★★★★4 years ago

Mike and Miles are kind people. They completed an accurate bid, on time, and were considerate when working in our home. After they finished the work they took time to share what improvement were made, quirks about our house, and you can feel their genuineness. We can feel the difference already in our home! I wouldn’t hesitate again to hire them.

Very professional and knowledgeable people to work with. They gave me a solid bid for the project I had which was within my budget and timeline for the job. The workers that came out were fast, friendly and respectful of the property. I couldn’t have asked for anything better. I would recommend this company to anyone needing any type of spray foam insulation.

W Brooks★★★★★2 years ago

We hired advanced spray foam to spray the ceiling and end gables of our 90 x 60 building and are so pleased with the result. Everything from getting a quote to the finished product was excellent. Their prices are affordable and they were prompt with getting us on the books and finished. They finished quickly but did such a great job. The finished product was smooth and didn't have excess over spray on the trusses like we expected. Like I said, we couldn’t be happier with our decision to go with Advanced spray foam.

Travis Holm★★★★★3 months ago

Nick and Yanna are great people. They came out to view the project (a 48x72 shop in my case) right away, provided a quote and answered all of my questions. We had rain and condensation that slowed us down but they were patient and out there immediately when the roof dried and were able to spray again. They did an incredible job and I can’t say enough about their work ethic. I would absolutely use Advanced Spray Foam again.

Benjamin Hintz★★★★★2 years ago

Yanna and Nick were very flexible and accomodating with insulating our tiny house. We've only needed a small space heater to heat the whole space. We can't recommend them enough for your closed cell spray foam needs!

Incredible experience with Evan & Adam! The people that came out to complete the attic project were great at explaining the work they were going to do and even took the time to show me a video of the work that was done (as I cannot access the attic) Will absolutely be using this company again for any home maintenance or improvements that come along.

Sid Schmidt★★★★★3 weeks ago

Nebraska Build Products is the only company I call when needing insulation or gutter services. Ran by great people and have had some of the same employees going on 25+ years.

Franklin Drywall showed up quickly when we called for a consult, and then got the work done within a few days of our original call. Work was done very well, and the price was extremely reasonable. Call them for drywall work, and you won't be disappointed. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Jennifer Conzemius★★★★★4 months ago

I had Curt’s crew repair a very challenging drywall seam in my ceiling. They did a great job. It was not an easy job to complete. I am very happy with the work they did and will use them in the future along with recommending their work to others. Thank you so much!

Loretta H★★★★★a month ago

I have used Franklin Drywall for remodeling twice in the past two years. Curt is very experienced, professional and honest. He has given me a very good price for both jobs. I wanted flat, perfect ceilings, with no texture . And I got them! Aaron's work is absolutely perfect and amazing. True talent and attention to detail. Cares about his product and his work ethic! I highly recommend Franklin Drywall.

Our experience with this company was nothing but positive. We were referred to this company when another contractor stood us up. We worked with Chad and he was prompt with responding to our request for a quote to re-insulate our attic and a space in our kitchen that was having issues.We received our quote within a week and the job was scheduled and done within another 2 weeks. The other companies we got quotes from wouldn't even address the issue in our kitchen. The insulators were here when they said they would be and the job was done in the timeframe they promised. Chad came by afterwards and inspected the work. From start to finish he was friendly and informative. We would recommend them to anyone needing insulation work done in a timely manner at a reasonable cost.

Brett Clausen★★★★★a year ago

We had a great experience with Cornhusker Insulation. Chad was great to work with and was very educational and honest about bringing our insulation level in our attic up to standards. Also, the crew that performed the work was so quick and efficient! Would highly recommend!

Mike★4 months ago

Terrible to work with. After the estimate is prepared, you will never see that person again and the crew that shows up, if they show up, will have no background in your project. After two days of no-call, no-show they arrived 4 hours late. They left our house a complete mess and didn’t tell us they were leaving. They apparently don’t carry vacuums or even trash bags with them to clean up their mess. If you loan them one, expect it to be left in the middle of your living space and not carried outside. They even used our tools and never put them back. There are plenty of other insulation companies you should try before you call this one.

We could not have asked for a better experience with Gil and his team! They arrived on time. They were professional in everything they did from how they treated us as homeowners, to conducting their work efficiently to cleaning up afterwards. I would not hesitate to recommend Seal Rite! They are the best!

Zach Wedekind★★★★★6 years ago

I build custom log homes and been working with Gill and dozens of jobs for 8 years. He has always stood behind his work and had delivered the job on time. Anytime there was a issue he answered his phone the first call and would have it taken care of right away. Their prices been competitive and continue to do work with them.

Christina Kyle-Yohe★★★★★5 years ago

We just built a two-car garage with 10 1/2 walls. They came out give us a bid a week later they came out and did the job. There was only one installer and he was Absolutely Amazing. He was top of the line. We paid right then.He was done in 2 hours and we have taller walls. Best insulation job my husband has ever seen. He said that guy was so so nice and friendly. My husband couldn't talk good enough about this installer. We would hire them again in a minute. 💯 Satisfied with Seal Rite!!!!! Thank you Seal Rite!!!

Frequently Asked Questions — Spray Foam Insulation in Lincoln

These are the questions Lincoln homeowners ask most about spray foam cost, R-value, and open- vs. closed-cell foam — with context for local pricing and roughly 35% typical energy savings. Compare the 11 verified Lincoln contractors above for exact quotes.

How much can spray foam insulation save on heating and cooling bills in Lincoln?▼
Homeowners in mixed climates like Lincoln, NE typically see 20–30% reductions in total energy costs after spray foam installation. The savings come from both reduced heating in winter and reduced cooling in summer. The exact savings depend on your home's current insulation, size, and local energy rates, but most homeowners recoup the investment within 3–6 years.
Is spray foam better than fiberglass insulation for homes in Lincoln?▼
For most homes in Lincoln, NE, spray foam outperforms fiberglass significantly. Fiberglass batts insulate but do not air seal — meaning conditioned air still escapes through gaps. Spray foam both insulates and creates an airtight seal, addressing the root cause of energy loss. While spray foam costs more upfront, the performance difference in mixed climates makes it the better long-term investment for most homeowners.
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 in Lincoln, NE?▼
In Lincoln, NE and the surrounding area, spray foam insulation typically costs $1.00–$3.00 per square foot installed, depending on the type and your home's specifics. 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 in Lincoln costs $2,000–$6,000. Most Lincoln 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 in Lincoln, NE?▼
When searching for a spray foam contractor in Lincoln, NE, look for ones 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 Lincoln 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 in Lincoln 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.
