Spray Foam Insulation in Auburn, MI

Spray Foam Insulation in Auburn covers homes in this small Bay County city between Bay City and Midland. Auburn was first settled in 1854. Its post office opened in 1869 under the name Skinner and was renamed Auburn in 1877, and the community incorporated as a city in 1947. Williams Township surrounds it.

Housing

The 2020 census counted 2,068 residents and 972 housing units, only 3.3% vacant. The population grew from 869 in 1950 to a peak of 2,087 in 2010, so much of the housing is post-war.

What post-war homes need

Ranches and two-stories from the 1950s through the 1970s usually have some attic insulation, but rarely the depth the Department of Energy recommends for Zone 5, and their rim joists are often bare. Attic sealing and depth plus rim foam is the usual job.

Older homes

The older houses near the center of town can have empty walls, which we fill with dense-pack cellulose.

Low vacancy

With so few vacant homes, most of our customers here are living in the house during the work. Blown-in attic work does not require leaving; foam on the rim needs about a day.

Garages with rooms above

Some Auburn homes have an attached garage with a bedroom or bonus room over it. That floor sits over a space near outdoor temperature all winter, and the room is usually the coldest in the house. Closed-cell foam under the floor and sealing the kneewalls and attic around the room are the usual fixes, and they also help keep garage fumes out of the house.
