The Brands Behind Every Grizzly Install

We don’t install mystery material. Every Arvada project uses products from the industry’s most trusted manufacturers.

01THE PROBLEM

Every Era Built Something Only Foam Can Fix.

The 1890s framed kneewalls nothing fits behind. The 1950s left rim bands open over cellars. The 1990s vaulted ceilings with three inches of rafter to work with. Closed-cell foam retrofits all of it, insulation and air barrier in one material, applied exactly where each decade cut its corner.

AKneewalls holding the century’s cold

Old Town’s story-and-a-half floor plans put bedrooms behind bare kneewalls inches from the roof. Foam on those short walls and slopes transforms the upstairs, the signature fix for the historic blocks.

BRim bands leaking over every cellar

From Victorian cellars to Woodlawn basements, the rim joist is the leakiest lumber in the house. Two inches of closed-cell seals and insulates the entire band in a morning, decades of payback for hours of work.

CVaults framed for drama, not depth

Southpark’s great rooms trade insulation space for ceiling height. Foam at the roofline returns double the R per inch, bringing a three-inch bay to real-world performance without touching the drywall below.

DCrawl walls against the river’s damp

Closed-cell on crawl and cellar walls near the Platte and the canal insulates and vapor-seals in one pass, the moisture answer fiberglass never was, and the reason foam leads our under-house specs here.

02THE FIX

Closed-Cell, Open-Cell, Injection: Matched to the Decade.

Three chemistries, three kinds of Littleton problem. The honest division:

03WHAT TO EXPECT

Chemistry With Manners, Whatever the House’s Age.

A Littleton foam day, from masking to cure:

STEP 1 · PREP
Protect what the era left

Original floors and trim in Old Town, finished basements in Southpark, whatever the house values gets masked and padded first.

STEP 2 · REMOVAL
Failed fiber off the framing

Sagging batts come off rims, kneewalls, and crawl walls so foam bonds to clean structure, adhesion is everything.

STEP 3 · AIR SEALING
Substrate metered, not assumed

Old lumber gets moisture and temperature checks before the rig starts; injection ports get drilled and mapped where walls stay closed.

STEP 4 · INSTALLATION
Lifts on the open, ports on the closed

Closed-cell in gauged one-inch lifts on open framing; injection foam filling closed cavities run by run until each reads full.

STEP 5 · QUALITY CHECK
Trim, patch, hand back

Overspray trimmed, ports patched paint-ready, thickness photographed. Re-entry after the cure window, typically the same evening.

"The upstairs of our 1908 Old Town house was borderline uninhabitable in January, bare kneewalls the whole length. Foamed in a day, cavities injected the next morning. Same house outside, different climate inside."

05QUESTIONS

Spray Foam in Littleton, Answered Straight

Prefer to just ask?

Call and talk to the crew that will actually be in your attic.

All three eras, in different places: Old Town’s kneewalls and shallow cavities, the ranch belts’ rim joists and crawl walls, Southpark’s vaults and bonus rooms. The common thread is geometry fiber cannot serve, which is precisely where foam earns its premium.

Per board foot on open framing, area times thickness, and per run for injection work behind finished walls, adjusted for access and prep. Rim bands are the modest entry point; kneewall and vault projects transform rooms and price accordingly. Per-assembly line items, in writing.

Yes, by injection through small drilled ports that get patched flush and paint-ready. The plaster face is never opened, the trim never touched. It is the preservation-community’s preferred way to make a Victorian winter-proof.

Run correctly, fully. Containment and ventilation come first, application goes in controlled lifts, and re-entry follows the cure window, usually the same evening. Cured foam is inert; process discipline is the entire safety story, and certification is why ours holds.

Rim bands take a morning. Kneewall packages and crawl walls take a day. Vaulted rooflines and whole-envelope projects run one to two. Schedule in writing with the quote, cure window included.

Directly, closed-cell is a vapor retarder as well as insulation. On crawl and cellar walls in the damper blocks, it stops the moisture migration that rots fiberglass, which is why it leads our under-house specifications in those areas.
