Red Seal CertifiedWhy Does Surrey Need Spray Foam Insulation?
Spray foam insulation seals air leaks and provides the highest R-value per inch, reducing heating costs by 30 to 50% in cold Canadian climates.
Surrey's metro Vancouver location brings persistent rainfall and Pacific moisture that challenges building envelopes year-round. The city's rapid growth means many homes meet only minimum insulation standards. Spray foam's dual role as insulation and moisture barrier makes it especially valuable for Surrey's wet climate and diverse housing stock.
Surrey's Insulation Challenges
Surrey's rapid growth has produced many homes built to minimum insulation code standards
Urban heat island effects in dense neighborhoods increase both heating and cooling demands
Persistent rain and Pacific moisture create mold-friendly conditions in poorly sealed wall cavities
Diverse housing stock from 1970s ranchers to modern townhomes each present unique insulation challenges
How Spray Foam Helps
Closed-cell spray foam provides moisture barrier protection against Surrey's heavy rainfall
Prevents mold growth conditions created by Pacific humidity trapped in wall cavities
Improves energy efficiency beyond minimum code for long-term BC Hydro savings
Adapts to Surrey's diverse housing types from older homes to modern multi-unit developments

What Type of Spray Foam is Right for Your Surrey Home?
Open-cell foam (R-3.7/inch) is ideal for interior walls and soundproofing, while closed-cell foam (R-6.5/inch) provides a moisture barrier for basements and exteriors.
Surrey's Zone 4 climate and persistent pacific rain and urban moisture conditions create ideal environments for hidden mold growth in wall cavities throughout surrey's diverse neighborhoods conditions inform our recommendation for the right spray foam type.
Open-Cell Spray Foam
R-3.7 per inch
- Excellent soundproofing properties for interior walls
- More flexible—ideal for areas with movement or settling
- Allows moisture to pass through (breathable)
- Cost-effective for large interior applications
- Perfect for interior walls, attics (with vapor retarder), and floors
Best for Surrey: Interior partition walls, soundproofing between rooms, and attic applications where a separate vapor barrier is installed.
Closed-Cell Spray Foam
R-6.5+ per inch
- Highest R-value per inch of any insulation material — ideal cold climate insulation
- Acts as its own vapor and moisture barrier
- Adds structural rigidity to walls and rooflines
- Resists water, mold, and moisture infiltration
- Ideal for exterior walls, basements, crawl spaces, and rim joists
Best for Surrey: Exterior walls, basements, and any area where moisture is a concern. Provides the R-value needed for your climate zone.

"I ONLY WISH THEY INSTALLED OUR HEAT PUMP ORIGINALLY"
Great company to deal with. We hired them to move an existing heat pump after the original installer refused to help us. The estimator and the installer were both very polite, careful and thorough. I only wish they installed our heat pump originally. I would hire them again without hesitation.

Which Spray Foam Is Right for Your Surrey Home?
There are two types of spray foam insulation — and the right choice depends on where it's being installed and the specific moisture challenges in Surrey. Here's what our local installers recommend.
Closed-Cell Spray Foam
Surrey's high rainfall and coastal or interior moisture means closed-cell foam is the standard choice for basements, crawlspaces, and any below-grade area. Its built-in vapour barrier prevents moisture from migrating through the building envelope.
- ✓ R-6 to R-6.5 per inch — highest R-value available
- ✓ Acts as a built-in vapour barrier — no separate poly required
- ✓ Adds structural rigidity to wall assemblies and rim joists
- ✓ Impervious to water — won't sag, settle, or absorb moisture over time
Open-Cell Spray Foam
Open-cell foam is a cost-effective option for interior partition walls, attic assemblies above the roof deck, and sound control between floors in Surrey homes. It breathes freely, which suits dryer interior spaces.
- ✓ R-3.5 to R-4 per inch — excellent air sealing at lower cost
- ✓ Superior soundproofing between rooms and floors
- ✓ More affordable per board foot — suited for large interior areas
- ⚠ Not suitable for below-grade or exterior applications in Surrey
