Want the Best Price for Spray Foam Installation? Don't Choose the Cheapest Contractor

It seems spray foam installers are a dime a dozen these days. Every time we turn around a new one’s popping up. A lot of contractors and homeowners (mistakenly) think that they’re all the same and therefore only ask about price. And since they think all spray foam installers are the same (because they haven’t been taught otherwise), they assume choosing an installer would be a no-brainer: call around, get a quick square footage price, and then choose the cheapest installer to insulate your building. Homeowners and contractors want the best price – naturally -- so this line of thinking makes sense, right?

You’d be forgiven for saying yes, but you’d still be wrong. That’s because by asking only about price, you’re missing out on crucial details and information that could seriously impact the outcome of a project.

Over the next couple of posts we'll dive into greater detail as to why choosing the cheapest price upfront may wind up costing you more in the long run.
