Rebuilding Comfort in Bourg
Spray Foam Insulation in Bourg serves a small community in Terrebonne Parish, with 2,375 residents in the 2020 census. Bourg is part of the Houma metro but sits down the bayou toward the coast, where storms hit harder. Hurricane Ida damaged the Bourg branch of the parish library so badly in 2021 that it was permanently closed, and many homes nearby took similar damage.
Homes after Ida
Rebuilding and repairs have opened up many Bourg homes. When walls and roofs are open, spray foam can be sprayed directly into the framing, sealing and insulating in one step. Closed-cell foam also adds some stiffness and does not soak up water, which is useful in a place that sees storm surge and wind-driven rain.
Raised floors
Many houses in the area are raised. The underside of the floor is open to humid air and sometimes to standing water after heavy rain. Closed-cell foam on the subfloor, after any wet batts are removed, keeps the floor dry and comfortable.
Attics
Older attics often have very little insulation. Sealing and blowing in cellulose or fiberglass to at least the R-38 Louisiana's code lists for new ceilings, and preferably the higher DOE target, is usually affordable.

Bourg Questions
We are still repairing our Bourg home. When should insulation go in?
After framing, electrical and plumbing are done and before drywall. That is when foam is easiest and most effective.
Is closed-cell foam better in a flood-prone area?
It does not soak up water like batts, so it handles occasional wetting better. It does not make a house floodproof.
Do you travel down the bayou to Bourg?
Yes, Bourg is in our service area.
