Newer two-story homes

Evans is dominated by newer subdivisions of two-story and ranch homes. They were built to modern codes, but most still put the air handler and ducts in a hot attic, and many have bonus rooms over garages with kneewalls and sloped ceilings.

The bonus room problem

A bonus room over a garage has hot attic on two or three sides and garage air below. It is the room owners complain about most. Open-cell foam on the kneewalls and sloped ceilings, plus sealing the floor framing over the garage, usually makes it comfortable.

Roof deck foam

In two-story homes with complicated rooflines and ducts in tight attic spaces, open-cell foam on the roof deck brings the ducts inside. It costs more than loose fill but protects the ductwork from extreme attic heat.

Code

OpenEI lists Columbia County in Climate Zone 3A. Georgia's code summary lists R-38 ceilings and a 5 ACH50 air-tightness limit for new homes.

Costs

HomeGuide lists roof deck foam at $1,500 to $9,000 and open-cell at $1.50 to $3.50 per square foot nationally. The written estimate is the price.

Before a refinance or sale

In a busy market like Evans, many owners insulate before selling or when planning to stay long term. A sealed, deeply insulated attic and a comfortable bonus room are easy to explain to a buyer. We give you a written scope that lists material, thickness and R-value for every area, which is useful paperwork to keep with the house.
