It's been a crazy week of prep, and we had a real disappointment yesterday when we'd stayed up late Tuesday night to be ready for foam insulation blowers and they didn't come. But they had unavoidable problems and today were here by 9. They were great - a father and son from Arkansas. The son did the spraying - in a white suit that made me think of Ghostbusters - and the father handed him things and cut off the excess foam. It was sprayed on in a layer that looked like it was about 1/8th of an inch, and within 15 seconds it expanded past the wall studs and in 45 seconds it was firm. In the upstairs room, where it went into the roof line, the floor (for sound barrier), and even some walls it now feels like you're walking into a big marshmallow - or into a pillow. This is supposed to be really good - made from soybeans - and good for sound as well as heat insulation. We can tell a difference already.
