What the buildings here are like.
Shelbyville is the largest town we cover in Shelby County, and half of its 9,496 homes were standing before 1972. That is the era we do most of our retrofit work in, and it is why we usually start with the attic and the crawlspace.
Population and housing figures: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey ACS 2024 5-year. Shelby County is in climate zone 5, the colder of the two zones Indiana spans.

What is around Shelbyville.
From Shelbyville, Morristown is 10.5 miles north, New Palestine is 14.1 miles north-west, Franklin is 14.8 miles west. Franklin is the larger of them at 26,168 people against Shelbyville's 20,296. We cover all of them, so if we are quoting your building we are often already working nearby that week — it is worth asking when you call.
Old houses, and a lot of them.
28.0% of Shelbyville's homes were built before 1950 — 2,659 of roughly 9,496. Houses that old were framed before anyone was sealing them: the attic is usually vented with batts thrown over the joists, and the crawlspace is open to the outside. Foam in those two places is the change people feel first.
A lot of rented property here.
55.2% of homes in Shelbyville are owner-occupied, which means a large share are rentals. We quote landlords the same way we quote anyone: what the building needs, what it costs, and which parts can wait.
Apartments and attached housing.
Only 61.9% of Shelbyville's housing is single-family detached, so a lot of it is duplexes, townhouses and apartment blocks. We spray multifamily, and sound between units is usually as much of the reason as heat.
Electric heat rewards a tight building.
40.5% of homes in Shelbyville heat with electricity. Electric heat gives you no flue losses and no fuel deliveries, but it does mean every degree you lose through the roof was paid for at the meter.

My Shelbyville house is old. Does foam still work?
It usually works better. 28.0% of homes here pre-date 1950, and buildings from that era were never sealed, so there is more to gain. We do have to look first: knob-and-tube wiring, an old roof leak or existing insulation that needs to come out all change the job. That is what the visit is for.
What does spray foam cost in Shelbyville?
It depends on the building, the foam and the thickness, so we quote every job rather than publish a price. Our minimum job is $2,000. Tell us about the building and we'll come out and measure.
Which foam is right for a Shelbyville building?
Shelby County is in climate zone 5, the colder of the two zones Indiana spans. Open cell (R-3.8 to 4.2 per inch) is the usual choice for attics and interior walls. Closed cell (R-7.6 to 8.1 per inch) goes where moisture matters, like crawlspaces, rim joists and metal buildings. We tell you which one the building needs when we quote it.
