From Plantation Name to Bayou Town
Spray Foam Insulation in Raceland serves a community spread along both sides of Bayou Lafourche. Raceland takes its name from a sugar plantation named in 1855 for George W. Race and his bride, Olivia Kittredge. Today it is a census-designated place of 21.6 square miles with 9,768 residents in 2020, connected to Houma by Highway 182, 12 miles southwest, and to New Orleans by US 90.
Houses along the bayou
The older homes lining Highways 1 and 308 on either bank of the bayou tend to be raised, with wood floors and shallow attics. They leak air at the floor, the ceiling and around old windows. We usually start with attic sealing and insulation, then closed-cell foam under the floor.
Newer homes near US 90
Newer houses closer to the highway are often slab homes with ducts in the attic. Sealing those ducts and insulating the attic well, or foaming the roof deck, brings cooling bills down noticeably.
Lafourche climate
Lafourche Parish is in climate zone 2A. Louisiana's code summary lists R-38 for ceilings and R-13 for walls in new homes. The Department of Energy suggests adding R-38 to R-49 over an attic that already has 3 to 4 inches.
Storms
Hurricane Ida was the strongest storm on record to make landfall in Lafourche Parish. If your house had roof damage, the insulation underneath may need to be checked.
Two-part quotes
We usually price Raceland homes in parts: the attic first, the floor second, and walls only if they are open or clearly empty. That lets you spread the cost and start with the change you will feel most.
