Some air leaks are necessary to allow for the escape of gasses from the home that are by product of heating air and water. Others result from how the home was built and the aging of building materials.
Fiberglass Insulation

|
As a primary insulation product, fiberglass insulation is installed in many of the projects we work on.
We are proud to install fiberglass insulation from Johns Manville, CertainTeed and Owens Corning.
We offer full width unfaced batts for metal framing applications when insulating build outs and other commercial office spaces. We also offer a white laminate fiberglass batt that can be used in warehouse applications.
Woodman also uses Johns Manville’s Spider™ Custom Insulation System. Spider is a formaldehyde-free™ fiber glass that sprays in almost dry, completely filling gaps and voids around electrical fixtures, pipes and other obstructions to give you superior insulation coverage. Spider™
insulation will not settle or shrink, and it’s inorganic and naturally mold-resistant.
Spray Foam Insulation
Spray foam insulation is a popular choice in insulation. Applied as a liquid, spray foam insulation expands to 100 times its volume in seconds to fill every crack and crevice. Spray foam insulation remains flexible after installation the integrity of the building envelope seal remains intact over time. Spray foam insulation acts as a complete insulation and air barrier to minimize air leakage and seal the building envelope for optimal airtightness.
Although foam can be used throughout an entire project, in many cases foam insulation is used for air sealing. Using this product that easily fills crevices and expands, it is a perfect solution to help keep energy inside the dwelling.
We install open cell foam from Icynene. We install closed cell foam from Icynene and JM Corbond.
Block Fill Foam Insulation
Block fill foam insulation is a “dry” resin foam-in-place insulation product designed for the cores of concrete block walls. It is competitively priced and is equal or superior to all current foam-in-place products specified.
Block fill foam masonry insulation is typically used in commercial and institutional buildings such as retail box stores, schools and churches. It is also used in residential applications such as concrete-block stucco walls, foundations and basement walls.
We install block fill foam from CFI.
Fire Protection Products![]()
Fire protection is an important part of any project. Firestop is a product that, when installed properly along with other products, slows the passage of fire, smoke and water from one side of a wall or floor to another.
We use quality firestop and fire foam products from Hilti.
