Why Choose South Central Services For Your Spray Foam Insulation

February 16th, 2024 | 3 min read

If you're considering spray foam insulation, you have several contractors to choose from. Many spray foam installers are in business in our service areas of southern Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia. So, why should you work with us?

South Central Services has insulated hundreds of homes with spray foam. There are five reasons why homeowners and contractors often choose to work with us. Let's examine them in more detail.

1. Your Project Will Be Looked At Holistically.

Spray foam insulation is just one element of a building. Insulation doesn't exist in a vacuum. We install insulation to accomplish a specific goal in a home or commercial space.

For residential applications, spray foam is usually installed for the thermal barrier. Your thermal barrier prevents outside temperatures from influencing the environment inside the home.

For commercial spaces, spray foam can be used to accomplish different goals. Cold storage needs insulation and a vapor barrier. Pole buildings need insulation to keep energy costs low.

No matter your project, our team will look at the space holistically. We aren't in the business of spraying foam to just spray foam. The goal is to address the problems you're experiencing or maximize the efficiency of your space. That will look different for every project.

2. You'll Work With Trained, Responsive Installers.

One of the problems with the spray foam industry is a lack of training. There are few formal places where contractors can receive education on spray foam components and equipment.

Knowing this downfall of the spray foam industry, we prioritize training for our crew members.

The installers who arrive at your job site are taught about the limitations of our equipment and materials. Your installer has expertise with spraying techniques to ensure your insulation is installed correctly. Many variables can affect spray foam results, and our crew members are well-versed with these variables and how to handle them.

South Central Services also prioritizes entry-level growth. It takes time for a crew member to learn and become proficient in proper installation. Our crews are always led by a knowledgeable installer who delivers results and continues our spray foam education.

We can be held accountable for our work. If you hire us to complete the insulation in your new construction building, you will never have to worry about fixing our work. We stand behind the quality of the product we put out.

If there is any issue with the installation, it is most often found right away while we are at the job site. Any type of problem like air pockets, delamination, off-ratio foam, or adhesion issues can be caught and corrected by our crew during installation.

If something is wrong with the insulation we installed, you call us. We will be responsible for our work.

3. Your Project Outcomes Will Be Prioritized.

Because our crews are trained on spray foam, rig equipment, and building science, you can trust that your spray foam insulation will be safe and effective. We know what we're doing.

We will reschedule your work if there is any variable we cannot control or adjust that would compromise your insulation. For example, some days in winter are not conducive to certain spray foam applications. Metal buildings and certain crawl spaces are examples. If we know the weather conditions are unfavorable and we can't change them, then we're going to wait until those weather conditions are different.

Spray foam insulation doesn't just insulate–it also creates an airtight seal. We understand how spray foam functions, and we install it to solve problems.

If you aim to improve your air quality, we'll troubleshoot the root causes. If your energy bills are unreasonably high, we'll work together to determine where spray foam will be most effective. If your last house was drafty and you want your new home to be comfortable, we will deliver.

4. Your Space Will Be Treated Respectfully.

For some projects, we work directly with homeowners. When we arrive to encapsulate a crawl space or insulate an attic, residents and pets have to leave for their safety. Even though you aren't home, your house will be worked in respectfully. When we've finished, your keys will be handed over and your home will be clean.

Other projects involve work with building contractors. We prioritize cleanliness on the job and will leave the site better than we found it. In all of our customer reviews, one of the most frequent comments we receive is how clean we leave our workspaces.

We strive to ensure your interactions with us and our team are pleasant and informative. From the moment you contact us about your project, we will be honest and respectful.

5. Your Insulation Will Be Insured.

South Central Services is insured. Any spray foam insulation company you work with needs to be insured. However, in addition to that insurance, we also stand behind our work.

You are guaranteed if something were to go wrong because of the insulation we installed. We will take responsibility for that issue and resolve it at no cost to you. We have never had a complete installation failure, and have only had to make minor repairs on less than 1% of our jobs.

Because we focus on training and education, the likelihood of your spray foam insulation failing is low. However, even in the worst circumstances, you can trust that we will stand behind our work.
