Incredible job by Adam and his team. The spray foam company of PGH solved our issue of having an extremely hot attic during the summer which was heating up the second floor significantly. We have a split system furnace, one in attic and before the spray foam, we might as well had it on our driveway. Spray foam PGH was able to reduce our energy bill by 50% and make the house extremely comfortable by turning the attic into a conditioned space. Amazing job and I highly recommend them to anyone looking to reduce energy costs and make their upstairs comfortable for all.

We used Adam and his team on our home addition. They responded quickly to texts and calls through the entire process. Our township inspector thought I needed additional services to meet code and attic access in the new space. Adam promptly called him to discuss the situation and worked everything out with him and kept the project to the initial scope. The project started on time and fit right into my timeline to be ready for the drywallers. The installers were here for 2 days, they were on time each day, polite, and they did a great job of cleaning up the site when finished. The price was fair and I would not hesitate to use them again.

Had an excellent experience with The Spray Foam Company of Pittsburgh. Adam worked around my schedule while I got my home prepared for insulation. His team showed up on the day of and did a great job. They were professional and they cleaned up well afterwards. The foam insulation has made an incredible difference in my home. For anyone considering cellulose or fiberglass insulation, I would recommend to spend the extra money get foam. I am very happy with my results.

We worked with Insulright on insulating our new home addition and remodeled home. They were beyond fantastic to work with from the time of scheduling through the installation. James worked with us to determine our needs and recommend a strategy and was on top of everything from start to finish. Nate, the foreman, was incredibly professional and thorough. They accommodated our schedule and timeline and could not have been more fantastic during an otherwise stressful renovation! I would 100% use them again and recommend them to all our friends and family.

Steve Dempsey★★★★★4 years ago

I had Insulright of North Versailles apply both open and closed cell foam to my home. I had completely gutted the house to the studs so they had access to every inch of the old farmhouse. This company is incredible from front to back. From Joe who came out and gave me a very competitive bid, to John who handled my account, to the work crew (Chris, Alex and the guy who didn’t talk much.....) all incredibly professional and able to adjust to what was appropriate for my house. They were on time every day, cleaned up constantly after themselves and made sure I was satisfied. They should be very proud of the team they have assembled. And the product itself is amazing. My house is tight now with no air gaps and easily heated. I highly recommend them. Do yourself a favor and at least let them give you a bid. You’ll be glad you did.

Michael P★★★★★3 years ago

I should of wrote this review a while ago. Just over a year ago, I had James from Insulright come out and visit for an estimate. We went with them to insulate are entire home from basement, every wall in between, to garage roof. The guys were all friendly and worked hard. And the quality is unmatched! My energy bill is almost cut in half, and it’s very soundproof from noise’s outside. It’s worth every penny we paid. Don’t even think twice verses traditional fiberglass insulation. There’s no comparison. Totally exceeded my expectations. Thank You for the quality service! Ligonier Project.

We did two big projects with Insulwise this fall and both experiences were excellent. Brady was incredibly knowledgeable and thorough in his initial consultation - and patient with our many questions! We decided to have mold remediation in our attic and also FIXING the conditions which caused the mold to grow in the first place. As a separate project we had them seal our ductwork - turns out we had a ton of leakage driving up our bill and make our home poorly heated and cooled! The technicians were great. We had Brian, Jack and Justin. They were professional and friendly, careful and tidy. We are so, so happy we did these projects with Insulwise and would highly recommend them.

Tessa★★★★★a month ago

I wanted to upgrade my insulation in the attic. I found Insulwise by browsing online and watching some Youtube videos that Andy from Insulwise uploaded on there that were similar to my style of home. I called. Erik came out. He was thorough with the proposal of everything that was going to be done for my home and I decided to forward with Insulwise. I had air sealing done first then the insulation of my three knee walls and some vents put in. The crew was Patrick, Zach & Skylar? (spelling). Very professional, friendly and chill guys. They answered any questions I had also. They performed quality work. My knee walls do not look empty anymore. Cleaned up nicely also. My blower door test showed a 53% reduction in air infiltration which I was told was excellent. Thank you Insulwise and Andy-the Youtube videos are very informative!

Glenn Freund★★★★★a month ago

From start to finish, I'm very pleased with the insulation services provided by Insulwize. I've used different cellulose blown in insulation services in the past, but this is the best. After the initial consultation with Brady, who explained all the mechanics of the project, Andy and his team very thoroughly answered all my questions and provided detailed information on the physics of insulation, the energy savings, the tax credits (due to expire) and the venting process. The day of insulation went smoothly, and the technicians were friendly and made me feel comfortable with the process. As a result, our house already feels warmer and more comfortable due to heat not flowing out through the roof and in from the garage basement area. Looking forward to our first cold weather gas bill to see what affect this will have. Meanwhile, thanks for treating the house to a cozier winter!

He quoted me a great price and we finally came to a date and his 2-man crew came out promptly at 8am. I needed more spray foam applied than the quote for code and they gladly did that same day. I thought it was an excellent job and price. Thank you Frank, Ethan and Jay!

Barbie M★★★★★6 months ago

Our contractor, BP Construction out of East Hickory PA, mentioned Franks Spray Foam Insulation to us after issues with condensation on the front of our house. He repaired the damage and suggested securing the repairs with spray foam insulation. So we contacted Frank. He came to our house to give us a quote shortly after contacting him .His team was here this week and did the job and we couldn't be happier with the results ! Was really impressed how they prep the area so no over spray got on anything they weren't spraying ! They were very helpful in answering our questions and explaining to us what the advantages were of the spray foam. Hate to say it but now we can't wait for winter to be able to fully notice a difference this spray foam really makes !

Called for an estimate and got a quick response and set up a date with Anthony. He was on time, very informative and personable. After that meeting with him we canceled the other estimate just knowing we were in good hands with RetroFoam. We scheduled and they were out in no time. The crew that came out was very professional quick and efficient. Left with no mess or anything out of place. Can’t recommend them enough.

Merel Duursma★★★★★a week ago

My whole experience with RetroFoam was seamless from start to finish! Anthony came to have a look and provide an estimate - was very thorough, informative, and communicated throughout the whole process! Jason, Bill, and their crews came to install blown-in insulation in the attic and then the foam through the exterior brick. They were super efficient and didn’t leave a mess! The company was even very understanding when we had to push my start date due to some family health issues. Overall very satisfied and would recommend to a friend! I’m already noticing such a difference the insulation has made in both temperature and noise reduction. Thanks so much!

Kristen Wirtz★★★★★2 months ago

We had a great experience with Retrofoam! We have a 2 story brick house which is freezing cold in the winter. They insulated both floors from the outside, and patched the holes with a color-matched mortar. The holes aren’t that noticeable, and totally worth the comfort and energy bill savings we will get! Would highly recommend the work and also the friendly/respectful employees there. 5/5

byronsru24★★★★★3 weeks ago

Had Andy improve the insulation in our house last April. We had purchased the home knowing the insulation in our attic wasn't up to par. Andy recommended blown in cellulose over top of what we currently had. He was quick to respond to questions, was very honest about what we needed, and didn't try to sell us something we didn't need. We got other quotes that were considerably higher and I doubt would have resulted in any difference in comfort or cost savings. He was on the job site himself , and showed up on time, and was done in less than half a day. Since the install our energy bills have been lower, house has been more comfortable, and we have 0 ice dams after all the snow that got dumped on Beaver County last week. I gave it almost a year to really see the difference, both in our utility bills, and home comfort over all seasons. My suggestion to you, go with Andy, you won't regret it.

Paul Korns★★★★★a month ago

A - PPP Attic Insulation & Roofing Services Co, PA provided some of the most thorough attic cleaning I’ve ever seen. Halfway through the inspection, Francis showed me photos of issues I didn’t even know existed. Their team explained how their mold remediation process works and why it’s important to address early signs before they spread. They also coordinated with their roofing contractor to double-check a section of shingles that had started lifting from past storms. On top of that, they recommended gas fireplace cleaning to remove soot buildup for better efficiency. Everyone was polite, professional, and genuinely willing to help. I really appreciate the quality of service A - PPP consistently delivers.

Everyone worked neatly and courteously. The contractor managed the process with skill. The outcomes are outstanding, and we highly recommend them!

Went to the Pittsburgh Home Show, had a great and informative experience talking with the owner. Quick follow up call after the show and they sent an estimator out. Estimator was courteous, quick, and concise. Didn't try to push products or services that I wasn't interested in. Really reasonable and comparable estimate. He was also nice to my dog, which was nice. Getting on their schedule was painless. Their operations manager Tina is great and communicative about the process. Installation date, the owner and another worker showed up to do the work, did a walkthrough of the property to identify possible problem areas or concerns, and identified water spigot and electric outlet they could use. Efficient work, no issues. Patches on my house (drilled through mortar) match and look great. I highly recommend Pittsburgh Foam Insulation and their business operations. Zero complaints.

Frequently Asked Questions — Spray Foam Insulation in Pittsburgh

How much can spray foam insulation save on heating and cooling bills in Pittsburgh?
Homeowners in mixed climates like Pittsburgh, PA 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 Pittsburgh?
For most homes in Pittsburgh, PA, 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?
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.
