Very happy with Koala insultion. Easy to schedule. Estimator was prompt, friendly and did a good job problem solving and discussing our options. Our house is old with a flat roof and was difficult for the team to access, but they got it done quickly and without making a mess. They also helped file the rebate paperwork. Overally we are very pleased with the insulation and the experience with Koala.

Great experience all around! In May, I converted from evaporative cooling to refrigerated air. Downstairs felt great, but upstairs was very disappointing as it didn't feel much better than my evaporative cooler. After a variety of tweaks that really didn't put a dent in it, I felt like this was my last chance. Koala was the only one of the three insulation companies I contacted that would even show up given no access into my attic. Mark answered my questions, provided options, and estimates. I was able to get a rough price estimate over the phone from another company and it proved Koala's pricing was fair. Aside from the local office having great ratings, I glanced at reviews for about 20 other Koala offices in surrounding states and could see Koala is very reputable in the southwest. Mark indicated the price would be adjusted based on the actual work done, which he did decrease the price by several hundred dollars as there was already more insulation in the attic than expected. Mark was willing to answer my follow up questions and do extras in my attic if feasible, which was amazing customer service considering the competition wouldn't step foot on site until the attic was already accessible. I had an attic access created, fiberglass insulation blown in, and an attic fan installed in early August during a sunny 100 degree heat wave. The attached image shows my house well above its set point of 72 degrees every afternoon into the night, until the day these improvements were made. My upstairs now maintains its set point of 72 even on a sunny 100 degree day! Thank you Mark and the rest of the Koala team!

Jose, Carlos and the crew made good on a job which didn't go well the first time around. They stood behind their work and as a result, with foam on the roof and all the exterior walls under stucco, our gas bill for our modest house is almost nothing, and thanks to the insulation and white roof, we don't need heating or cooling for a couple months in the spring and fall. I would hire Garrity in a minute.

All Star Foam has been creating faux vigas, beams, and architectual accents for my house remodeling projects for many years. They are always very helpful and professional and always come through for me!

Drew Presley★★★★★8 years ago

Excellent Service!!! Extremely Helpful!!! We were from out of state and had a large (somewhat intimidating) project in Albuquerque. I contacted David from All Star Foam and explained the scope of our work to see if they could help. After discussing the project with him it was like a burden had been lifted off my shoulders. Throughout the project measurements changed several times and there were add ons and last minuet changes. No big deal for David, he came through 110% every time. I cant say enough how much of a help he was! An Exceptional Guy!

The experience with the Miller Insulation representative was beyond my expectations. Louis gave me a thorough description of the job, answered my questions and showed me the finished product. Most of all, my wife and I developed a great rapport with Louis, who even listened to some of my life adventures. When he finished, I had confidence that he did a professional job and in his expertise and skills. There is no doubt that I would highly recommend Miller Insulation to anyone who needs this service.

I connected with Joey A. with Miller's Insulation by chance approximately 1 1/2 years prior while seeking a solution for repairing some torn insulation on a commercial building. Joey was straight-forward and honest regarding the repairs and offered cost-effective solutions. Fast forward to Fall 2024, I needed insulation for a residential project in ABQ. I received quotes from two other local insulation companies for spray foam and blown-in insulation options. Quotes from the other companies came in high, and I felt pressured and rushed to sign a contract, so I reached back out to Joey (who typically only does commercial). Joey made the effort to come by and take a look at my project. Joey was again patient, knowledgeable, and gave me pros/cons and understandable explanations for choices between foam, cellulose, and fiberglass insulation options. I ended up going with blow-in fiberglass in the attic and batts in the crawlspace. Technicians Oscar and Victor did a phenomenal work, as it was it a tough project. They lined the rafters, covered the non-IC electrical boxes in the attic, and stuffed ever crevice in the crawlspace. The results were phenomenal and immediately noticeable! I have other homes in the area that need updated insulation, so I will be calling Miller's again. Thanks again, Joey!

Floyd knows how to treat his customers. I needed a new foam mattress for my RV. He delivered like a pro. Due to my error in measuring, Floyd didn't hesitate and was quick in shaving off an inch off my foam mattress. Now the foam mattress fits perfectly on my murphy bed setup. Thanks Floyd.

Rio Grande Foam is an amazing business who can help you with your needs. I highly recommend Floyd. He is generous, professional, and really makes sure your needs are met.

Dave Zender★★★★★2 years ago

It was time to upgrade my RV mattress and I found Rio Grand Foam Inc. Floyd, the owner, took the time to explain my options and even let me lie down on the one that he recommended! He also let me take the extra foam with me so I could decide if I wanted to use it for another cushion. I came back the next day, and Floyd not only sliced out my second cushion but cut another piece for a pillow! Outstanding customer service!!! Thank you!!!

Exceptional Service and industry expertise. Nicholas, Charles, Brian, Jesus and the entire team at Bankers Insulation were outstanding to work with! Anyone who has trying to get quality work done, in the Albuquerque area, knows how difficult it is. These professionals at Bankers Insulation installed rain gutters on our 2 story home, with a flat roof, and did a beautiful job! Our family has used their services on 5 separate rain gutter installs, with great results. They really care about providing quality service to their customers and above all following through.

We recently learned about spray foam; it is an interesting product with many applications. In conversations with Ex-E1 Sustainable Building Systems, LLC, we discovered we had a need for which spray foam was the perfect solution. We had replaced two heating/cooling units on the roof of our home. Because of the height of the new units, we positioned them away from the existing openings for air return. We didn’t want to negatively impact the visual elements of our adobe home. However, due to the length of the new ducts, we were losing heat. Ex-E1 Sustainable Building Systems applied a layer of spray foam to the exterior of the roof ducts. Immediately, there was an improvement in our ability to heat and maintain an even temperature and also an unexpected outcome. Because the spray foam dampens the resonant sound of air movement in the ducts, the heating/cooling system is much quieter. The Ex-E1 team was efficient and respectful. The application was neat and clean. We are very pleased with the outcome. In further conversations with Ex-E1, we learned spray foam can be used inside walls in new construction and also for roof and stucco repairs.

Frequently Asked Questions — Spray Foam Insulation in Albuquerque

These are the questions Albuquerque homeowners ask most about spray foam cost, R-value, and open- vs. closed-cell foam — with context for local pricing and roughly 33% typical energy savings. Compare the 12 verified Albuquerque contractors above for exact quotes.

Is spray foam insulation a good investment in Albuquerque?▼
For homes in mixed-humid climates like Albuquerque, NM, spray foam is typically an excellent investment. The combination of hot summers, cold winters, and significant humidity means your home faces insulation challenges year-round. Spray foam addresses all three — providing thermal insulation in both seasons while controlling moisture infiltration. Most homeowners in NM see payback periods of 4–7 years. As with any tight building envelope, ensure your home has adequate mechanical ventilation to manage interior moisture.
How does humidity affect spray foam insulation performance in Albuquerque?▼
In mixed-humid climates like Albuquerque, NM, moisture management is as important as thermal performance. Closed-cell spray foam acts as a Class II vapor retarder, preventing moisture from infiltrating walls and attics where it causes mold and structural damage. This dual function — insulation plus moisture control — is why spray foam outperforms traditional insulation options in NM's climate. However, because the building envelope becomes tightly sealed, proper mechanical ventilation is strongly recommended to allow interior moisture from daily activities to escape without losing conditioned air.
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 Albuquerque, NM?▼
In Albuquerque, NM 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 Albuquerque costs $2,000–$6,000. Most Albuquerque 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 Albuquerque, NM?▼
When searching for a spray foam contractor in Albuquerque, NM, 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 Albuquerque 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 Albuquerque 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.
