Rim Joist Insulation in the Twin Cities
If your home was built before the late 1990s, there is a good chance your rim joist was never insulated. Minnesota code did not require it back then, so in thousands of Twin Cities homes the only thing between your floor framing and a January night is a bare 2×10 or 2×12.
Cold conducts straight through that bare wood, and outside air leaks in as your foundation settles and cracks. That is why your floors feel cold and your basement feels drafty all winter. We spray foam the entire rim joist cavity, sealing and insulating it in one application, so the air movement stops and the floors above warm up.
Rim joist sealing is one of the most effective upgrades an older Minnesota home can get, and it can help your project qualify for local energy rebates. As an official Trades Partner, we diagnose exactly what your home needs and handle 100% of the utility rebate paperwork for you, so you don’t have to lift a finger to get your cash back.
Our Rim Joist Insulation Services
Closed-cell spray foam is the right material for rim joists, sealing air leaks, insulating, and resisting moisture in a single application. At Spray Foam Insulation Plus, our certified technicians spray foam rim joists in basements and crawl spaces across the Twin Cities, as a standalone project or as part of a larger basement insulation job, with results you can count on.
