Spray Foam Insulation in Everglades City, FL

Spray Foam Insulation in Everglades City has to account for a place that sits at sea level and has been flattened by hurricanes before. Wikipedia lists the town at 0 feet of elevation on Chokoloskee Bay, separated from the Gulf by the Ten Thousand Islands.

A storm history

Collier County was created in 1923 with its seat in Everglade. After Hurricane Donna in 1960 destroyed 153 homes in the county and caused major damage to 409 more, the seat moved to East Naples. Homes here have been rebuilt and raised many times since, and raised homes have floors exposed to air underneath.

Raised floors and wet air

Average yearly rainfall is 55.28 inches over about 115 days, and June alone averages 11.70 inches. For a raised home, closed-cell foam under the floor seals air leaks and resists moisture better than batts, which can sag and hold water. We check the framing and clearances before recommending it.

Fishing and work buildings

Metal and wood work buildings near the water benefit from closed-cell foam to cut heat and condensation. We look at corrosion and roof condition first.

Fishing and tour businesses

Many buildings in town support fishing charters, boat tours and seafood businesses. Metal and wood work buildings near the water take a beating from heat and salt. Closed-cell foam on walls and roofs reduces heat and condensation, which helps protect stored gear.

A long drive, planned well

Everglades City is a long trip from Naples, so we plan visits carefully. We ask for photos and measurements by phone first, so we arrive with the right equipment and can often inspect and quote in one trip.
