Wall Insulation

RetroFoam Injection Foam for Existing Walls

Fill your hollow walls completely — without removing a single piece of drywall or siding. RetroFoam is the only insulation designed from the ground up for existing homes.

What Is RetroFoam?

Injection Foam Built for Homes That Are Already Standing

Most homes built before 1990 have hollow wall cavities — zero insulation between you and the outside. Standard insulation options require tearing out drywall or siding to get inside those walls. RetroFoam doesn't.

RetroFoam is a low-pressure injection foam that expands to fill wall cavities completely. It flows around wires, pipes, and blocking — things that stop blown-in products cold — and cures into a stable, air-sealing material that doesn't settle or shift over time.

The result: a fully insulated wall from the inside out, installed in a single day, with holes no bigger than a quarter patched and painted before we leave.

Why Not Blown-In Insulation?

Blown-in cellulose and fiberglass rely on gravity to settle into wall cavities. This creates two problems:

  • Gaps form at the top of cavities where the material can't reach
  • The material compresses over time, reducing R-value
  • Obstacles like blocking and wires create voids the material bridges over
  • It doesn't air-seal — cold air still infiltrates through gaps

RetroFoam flows around all of it and air-seals as it cures.

What You Get

Six Reasons Homeowners Choose RetroFoam

Lifetime Warranty

The foam is warrantied for the life of your home — it won't settle, sag, or need replacing.

No Settling

Unlike blown-in products, RetroFoam cures rigid and stays put — full coverage permanently.

Non-Toxic

Safe for families, pets, and people with chemical sensitivities. No offgassing once cured.

Noise Reduction

Fills air gaps that transmit sound — quieter rooms, less street noise, less rain noise.

One-Day Install

Most homes are done in a single day. You stay home. Normal life resumes the same evening.

No Drywall Removal

Small access holes are drilled through siding or interior walls, then professionally patched.

The Process

Three Steps. One Day.

01

Drill

Small access holes — about the size of a quarter — are drilled through your siding or from the interior. Location depends on your home's siding type.

02

Inject

RetroFoam is injected into each cavity. It expands to fill the entire space — flowing around wires, pipes, and blocking — then cures in place.

03

Patch

Every access hole is plugged and color-matched to your siding or interior wall. When we leave, most homeowners can't spot where we drilled.

Works With All Siding Types

RetroFoam can be installed through virtually any exterior siding — or from the interior when preferred:
