Spray Foam Insulation in Fox Crossing, WI

Spray foam insulation in Fox Crossing covers established homes around the north end of Lake Winnebago and along Little Lake Butte des Morts. The village is new, formed on April 20, 2016 from the Town of Menasha, but most of its 8,572 housing units are not. The 2020 census put the median age at 39.6, with 17.3% of residents 65 or older, so many homes have been in the same hands for years.

Older shells

Houses built from the 1960s through the 1990s often have thin attic insulation, leaky recessed lights and bare rim joists. Sealing and topping up the attic and foaming the rim are the usual first steps.

Near the water

Homes along the lake and river take more wind in winter and can have damper basements. Air sealing matters more than depth on windy lots, and we check the foundation for seepage before insulating below grade.

Highway crossroads

I-41 runs north and south through the village and US 10 runs east and west, so we reach Fox Crossing easily from anywhere in the Fox Cities.

What it costs

Attic jobs run $1,000 to $2,700 and air sealing $350 to $3,000 by HomeGuide's figures; rim joist foam is about $2,000 to $2,500. We measure and give you a written estimate.

Planning around the lake season

Owners near the water often want work done before winter sets in, when wind off the lake makes drafts obvious. Attic and rim work can be done any time of year inside a heated house. If the house has a walkout basement facing the lake, we look closely at the exposed wall and rim on that side, since it takes the most weather. Each area goes on the quote separately so you can phase the work.
