Spray Foam Insulation Installation
A Safe Way to Insulate Your Home or Business
Any homeowner in Toronto can tell you what their biggest financial pain point is: their monthly energy bills! As energy costs continue to rise, homeowners are looking for effective and innovative ways to save money. However, there’s a hidden cause of these rising prices that you may not be aware of. Is your home properly insulated? If not, we can provide spray foam insulation installation services for all of Toronto!
How Does Spray Foam Insulation Work?
Spray foam insulation is one of the most effective types of insulation for a big reason! When spray foam comes into contact with oxygen, it expands to fill the space around it. This makes it incredibly effective at sealing small cracks and crevices that other types of insulation can miss. Spray foam insulation expands to many times its original size, creating an airtight seal that prevents heat loss and combats air infiltration. If you’re looking to increase your home’s energy efficiency, spray foam insulation has you covered!
The Two Types of Spray Foam Insulation
There are two main types of spray foam insulation – open-cell foam insulation and closed-cell foam insulation. Each has unique benefits, so it's important to know the difference to help your home perform at its best. Here’s an overview of both types:
1. Open-Cell Spray Foam Insulation
Open-cell spray foam insulation consists of foam cells that are not fully enclosed. While it is not as effective at keeping out moisture as closed-cell insulation, it excels in soundproofing and is ideal for interior walls. Open-cell foam requires less material, making it a more cost-effective option. Its superior soundproofing abilities mean you won't have to worry about unwanted noise from other rooms or outside.
2. Closed-Cell Spray Foam Insulation
Closed-cell spray foam insulation features enclosed foam cells that create an airtight seal around the installation area. Although it is more expensive than open-cell foam, it offers superior insulation quality. Closed-cell foam is highly effective at preventing air and moisture infiltration and helps keep mold at bay. This type of insulation is best suited for exterior walls, helping to keep your home energy-efficient for years to come.
By choosing the right type of spray foam insulation, you can ensure that your home remains comfortable, energy-efficient, and well-protected from the elements.

If you were to ask a homeowner what their biggest source of financial strain was, what do you think they would say? Chances are, it’s their monthly energy bills! Keeping your home comfortable throughout the unpredictable seasons typically requires a lot of energy. Insulation is a fantastic option if you’re looking for an effective way to cut down on energy costs and make your home more comfortable for less.

What Is Fiberglass Insulation?
Fiberglass insulation is typically made of 20-30% consumer recycled glass, making it both environmentally friendly and energy-efficient. It consists of tiny glass fibers woven into a fabric-like material used for insulation. Fiberglass can be installed almost anywhere in your home and effectively regulates temperature without straining your heating or AC units.

Fireproof Insulation Installation
A Safe Way to Insulate Your Home or Business
Protecting your building from fire should always be a top priority. Many building codes require fireproofing protection for any structural steel as a safety precaution. With something as critical as fire resistance, it’s important to choose your insulation carefully. The insulation must be both effective and affordable. We can save you the time and effort of researching your options; Wildcraft Construction offers the best fireproof insulation for your needs!
What Is Spray-Applied Fire-Resistive Material?
The most popular method to provide fireproofing protection for commercial buildings is the use of spray-applied fire-resistive material (SFRM). SFRM utilizes low-density fiber or cementitious compounds to insulate crucial structural elements of a building, such as columns, beams, joists, and concrete. These materials help manage the temperatures of these components during a fire, preventing them from reaching temperatures that could cause structural failure. By keeping these elements below critical temperatures, SFRM plays a vital role in maintaining the integrity of your building during a fire.
How Does Fireproof Insulation Benefit Your Home or Business?
The primary benefit of fireproof insulation for your property is clear: it protects against the worst-case scenario in the event of a fire. However, there are several additional benefits that make fireproof insulation from Wildcraft Construction an excellent choice for your home or business. Here are some of the perks it provides:
- Low Maintenance: Once installed, fireproof insulation requires no regular maintenance. It continually works to improve your building’s efficiency and performance.
- Mold & Pest Resistant: The cementitious nature of fireproof insulation repels mold growth and pest infestations. This can save you significant time and money on repairs.
- Prevents Building Disasters: In the event of a fire, fireproof insulation helps prevent catastrophic structural damage. While fire damage is repairable, structural damage is more complex and costly to fix. Fireproof insulation ensures that such severe complications do not arise.
Choose Wildcraft Construction for your fireproof insulation needs and safeguard your property with the best protection available.
