What should I do today if I see daylight through an attic seam?
Keep the attic access closed to limit moisture and odor, and avoid storing items near the damp area. Take clear photos of the seam and any stains. Daylight through a seam means air is leaking, which is what spray foam is used to seal.
What should I check when hiring an insulation pro?
Ask for proof of insurance and any license your city requires before you agree to work. Ask whether the quote covers the attic floor or the rafters and roof deck, since that changes the price. Compare at least two written quotes.
Does spray foam help with air leaks and moisture?
HomeGuide reports spray foam can be a premium option for attic air sealing, and closed-cell foam is ideal for air sealing attics. ENERGY STAR recommends sealing air leaks and insulating the attic together. Spray foam does not fix an active roof leak, so look for water intrusion signs first.
Are there cost help options for seniors or qualifying households?
The DOE Weatherization Assistance Program can help qualifying low-income households with an energy assessment and air sealing or attic insulation. Many local utilities may offer rebates for professional assessments and air sealing. Check the ENERGY STAR Rebate Finder with your zip code.
