I guess what I take away from this process is this: there is no real comparison between fiberglass and spray foam insulation. They may both use "R-Values" to try to explain how well they insulate, but the difference is so much more. The closed-cell spray foam is not just insulation, it is also a vapor barrier that seals every little space. It can't absorb water or get damp or sag over time. Fiberglass is done, part of history. I could never see myself using it again.

"Thank you for your business. Matt Gilles Louisville Spray Foam Insulation - "The Foam Gnomes""
A crew of 3 men came at noon and stayed until 8 pm. Two wore the hazmat suits and did the spraying while one stayed at the truck minding the machines and hoses. It seemed to be very complicated, hard work, involving 2 large, long hoses going into the building for 2 chemicals to be mixed together through the sprayers. I was told the fumes were dangerous but disappeared quickly and the windows and doors had to stay open overnight.
The next day when I went down to check, I saw just a few places that were less than 2 inches thick (2 small areas less than an inch) and called Matt. He came to check and we discussed how to remedy it. Bringing back the truck, hoses, and workers seemed like an excessive step so I agreed to get a couple cans of spray foam and fill in where I wanted.
The other reason I rated a B on quality was the clean-up. Nothing was covered so I had foam on all the outlets, some on the floor and anything that was on the floor, even the sump pump. The workers did take time after spraying to scrape foam off some of the studs and rafters, but there was a lot left for me to do, including vacuuming up the scrapings with a shop vac. I have no other experience to compare and it was not an extreme hardship - just unexpected work.

The work crew was pleasant, professional and cooperative. The few issues we ran into during the job were easily resolved.
The work quality is good. I do have one complaint: there is a considerable amount of trash, in the form of old fiberglass batts, etc., that was left in my attic. I must take some responsibility for not crawling back into the attic to inspect before they left. This has not been addressed with the contractor due only to the fact that it may be less disruptive to handle it myself than to make way for them to return. This is, however, something that I truly despise doing myself.
In summary, I would hire them again as well as recommend them to anyone. I am satisfied with the work itself and I was comfortable with the workers. I do not anticipate any problems should callbacks be required.
I will be sure in the future to thoroughly discuss all expectations in advance and to completely inspect before the crew leaves.
Workers showed up on 11/26; they stayed on 11/27 until 10 PM in order to finish, a 14-hour day for them! Carlos later apologized for the late hour, but we have already endured long roofing and framing days so it was no real problem. Following a few questions from me, the foamers returned on 12/5 to add foam to the roof eaves (the roof had stayed frosted up on cold mornings except for the eaves right near the roof's edge), to fill areas where recessed lights had had to be removed (the recessed light cans don't allow for foam above them and are not recommended for ceilings without conditioned spaces above), the areas around the 4" tubing leading to the bath vents on the roof (the holes had been foamed over because the tubing was not yet in place, so I had cleared the holes and installed the tubing), and to touch up on a few high and low areas. Our GC had had problems with the fact that excess foam had been left on some wall studs. He thought it might hinder the placement of drywall, and I did observe those workers sometimes clearing off excess foam before they could attach drywall.
An excellent example of the crew's responsiveness happened on 12/6, when Jose' and a worker returned to our home to foam a newly-exposed wall in a future bathroom. We had had the plaster torn off to expose the studs and found that this exterior wall had no insulation at all, which could have caused serious problems in the bath in coming years. Luckily, Jose' and the crew were working at a neighbor's and were able to complete this extra work early the next morning, well before the drywall crew needed to work on the wall. We just sent money to cover this extra work; Carlos charged only $100, which was for the cost of materials. Now that's what I call truly great customer relations! He made a visit to our home to check on this extra work, too.
At present (12/12, 11:45 AM) we're having a new furnace installed so we have had no heat in the house since about 9 AM. The temp outside has gone from 29 to about 33, but the house temp has dropped only one degree! I am continually amazed at the effectiveness of the foam insulation. It's also a good noise barrier, which is helpful for those of us living near Bowman Field. Our crawl space access areas can be left wide open now, another thing which amazes me. All in all, we had a great experience with LSFI and we recommend them without reservation.

Service is Excellent and they are very knowledable on product and the problem that we have. Very professional and completed the work with excellence. I already recomended to my friend.

There is a mild odor associated with the foam, but it didn't bother us, we didn't vacate the house, etc. The odor rapidly dissipates in a few days, and is never strong or noxious.
I am doing this in conjunction with a re-work of the HVAC ductwork, specifically to address very poor cooling on the upper floor: After the insulation was installed, the crappy central AC is actually keeping the upstairs cool for the very first time!
I wholeheartedly recommend these guys. I did go for competing bids, but the competition came to my home, but never delivered an estimate...even after calling them (Grable).
"Thank you for the great review."
