Kentucky's River City
Spray Foam Insulation in Owensboro serves the Daviess County seat on a bend of the Ohio River, about 37 miles southeast of Evansville. Owensboro had 60,183 residents in 2020. Its climate runs hot in summer, with an average July high of 92.0F under 1981-2010 normals and a record of 107F, and its January lows average 26.2F, with about 47.8 inches of precipitation and 8.8 inches of snow a year.
Hot summers, cold nights
Those numbers mean the same two-season problem as Evansville: attic heat pours in during July, and warm air escapes through the same gaps in January. Sealing the attic floor and the rim joist pays off in both seasons.
Flat river country
The northern half of Daviess County along the river is relatively flat. Homes on low ground can deal with damp basements and crawl spaces, which need the water handled before insulation goes on.
Kentucky rules
Owensboro follows Kentucky's residential building code. For remodels or permitted work, check with the local building office about current insulation requirements.
Costs
HomeGuide lists a typical attic job at $1,000 to $2,700 and crawl space foam at $2,000 to $4,000 nationally. The written estimate after our visit is the price.

Owensboro Questions
Do you work in Owensboro?
Yes. It is at the eastern edge of our Tri-State area, across the river from Rockport.
Should I foam my crawl space or basement rim?
In most Owensboro homes, yes. The rim joist is one of the biggest air leaks in the house.
Does sealing the attic help with ice dams?
Yes. It cuts the heat that melts roof snow, which is the main cause.
