Winters in Des Moines are no joke, and neither are the utility bills that follow. At CountBricks, we believe every Iowa homeowner deserves a comfortable, energy-smart house. That’s why our team specializes in des moines spray foam insulation—and why our AI-powered estimating platform gives you crystal-clear pricing before a single hose is unrolled.
Spray polyurethane foam (SPF) expands to seal every gap, stopping the wind-tunnel effect common in older Midwestern homes. The result? Lower heating and cooling loads, better indoor air quality, and a structure that feels brand-new.
• Up to 50 % energy savings compared to batt insulation
• Adds structural rigidity—ideal for storm-prone regions
• Creates an air, vapor, and moisture barrier in a single install
• Open-cell (0.5 lb/ft³) is budget-friendly, expands 100×, and excels at sound dampening. Perfect for interior walls and attic slopes.
• Closed-cell (2 lb/ft³) delivers an R-6.7 per inch, adds shear strength, and handles occasional moisture—ideal for crawl spaces, rim joists, and exterior walls.
Our AI estimator weighs square footage, humidity data, and Code Chapter 403.2 requirements to specify the right foam blend for every Des Moines residence.

• Foam type: closed-cell averages 30-40 % more per board foot than open-cell
• Thickness: meeting IECC R-value targets may require 3–5 inches in exterior walls
• Accessibility: vaulted ceilings and tight crawl spaces can add labor time
• Prep work: removing old insulation or adding fire-rated coatings affects final totals
Because CountBricks tracks daily supplier pricing, your quote reflects real-world numbers—not outdated national averages.

When the Harper family bought their 1940s Beaverdale bungalow, winter drafts made the house feel ten degrees colder than the thermostat reading. They contacted CountBricks for a des moines spray foam insulation assessment.
1. Using our AI blueprint tool, we mapped 1,650 ft² of exterior envelope in under five minutes.
2. Real-time supplier feeds locked closed-cell foam at $1.24 per board foot—a 7 % savings compared to the previous month.
3. The interactive estimate highlighted a 3.8-year payback, factoring MidAmerican Energy’s $500 rebate.
4. Installation finished in 1.5 days. Post-project blower-door testing showed a 54 % reduction in air leakage.
5. First winter utility bills dropped by 32 %, confirming the projected ROI.
• Schedule during shoulder seasons—spring or fall—to secure better crew availability and pricing.
• Combine projects: adding attic air sealing alongside foam enhances savings without extra mobilization costs.
• Request thermal imaging after install; CountBricks includes this service to verify coverage and pinpoint any missed cavities.
