Insulating at the Crossroads of Two Waterways
Spray Foam Insulation in Larose works in a community built where Bayou Lafourche and the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway cross. Larose is a census-designated place of 11.2 square miles with 6,763 residents in 2020, with Highway 24 running 24 miles west to Houma and Highways 1 and 308 running along each bank of the bayou.
Storm history
Larose has seen severe weather beyond hurricanes. On October 3, 1964, during the Hurricane Hilda outbreak, an F4 tornado moved through the area, killing 22 people, injuring 165 and destroying or badly damaging many homes. It was the deadliest tornado spawned by a tropical cyclone since 1900. Hurricane Ida in 2021 damaged roofs and buildings across south Lafourche.
Marine shops
Along the waterway, steel shops and marine buildings sweat in humid weather. Closed-cell foam on the roof and walls keeps humid air off the steel and cuts heat.
Homes
Homes here range from older raised houses along the bayou to newer slab homes. Raised houses benefit from closed-cell foam under the floor; slab homes from attic sealing and insulation. Louisiana's code summary lists R-38 ceilings for new homes.
Rebuilding
If you are repairing walls or a roof, spray foam in the open framing is the most effective upgrade available.
A practical order of work
For most Larose homes, the first money goes into the attic: seal the ceiling and blow insulation to depth. Next comes the floor of a raised house, then walls when they are open for other reasons. For a shop, the roof comes before the walls because that is where the sun loads the most heat and where condensation drips onto equipment.
