Icynene Insulation in South Austin, TX | Super Green Insulation Austin
On a July afternoon in Bouldin Creek, attic temperatures inside a 1952 pier-and-beam bungalow can hit 145°F — and without proper Icynene spray foam insulation, that heat doesn’t stay up there. It migrates down through hollow wall cavities, up through uninsulated hardwood floors, and straight into your living space. Super Green Insulation Austin has spent 16 years solving exactly that problem for South Austin homeowners, serving South Austin, TX with reliable spray foam solutions. If your home is losing the battle against a Texas summer — or the next Winter Storm Uri — call us today at (866) 434-2901.
Why South Austin Residents Choose Us for Icynene Service
Tom Hopkins leads our crew, and his 16-plus years in the Austin insulation trade means he’s crawled beneath hundreds of pier-and-beam homes in Travis Heights, Zilker, and Slaughter Creek — not just read about them. Our technicians are Icynene-trained and keep South Austin-specific materials on the truck at all times, including open-cell Icynene MD-R-200 and closed-cell Icynene ProSeal for the tighter underfloor cavities common in 78704 bungalows. Learn more about our Icynene sales & service offerings and how we match the right product to your home, or explore our full Insulation Installation in South Austin services for a broader look at what we offer. We respond fast and get the scope right the first visit.
Common Icynene Insulation Problems We Solve in South Austin
- Settled or absent attic insulation in 1940s–1960s bungalows: In the 78704 corridor — Bouldin Creek, Travis Heights, Zilker — we routinely pull back access panels and find either zero attic insulation or original cellulose that has compacted to less than half its rated depth. South Austin’s extreme attic temperatures accelerate that settling, so re-insulating with Icynene open-cell foam restores full coverage and seals every penetration in a single pass.
- Uninsulated pier-and-beam crawl spaces letting winter cold and summer radiant heat through floors: The crawl spaces under South Austin’s older bungalows typically sit only 18 to 24 inches off grade with no ground vapor barrier and no belly insulation — in summer, exposed soil radiates heat upward through hardwood floors, and in a hard freeze that same open cavity lets pipes drop to outdoor ambient temperature. We address the underfloor envelope with Icynene ProSeal closed-cell foam or rigid foam board depending on joist depth, sealing the floor deck before we ever touch the attic, and our Attic & Crawl Space Restoration — South Austin service covers these multi-zone projects from start to finish.
- Hollow wall cavities in mid-renovation flips across 78704: South Austin’s surging land values have triggered aggressive renovations on blocks throughout SoCo and Bouldin Creek, and contractors frequently discover that walls were originally built with no insulation whatsoever — just wood studs and exterior siding. Icynene open-cell foam injected through small bore holes fills these cavities completely without tearing out finished drywall, a critical advantage when a homeowner has already invested in a period-accurate interior renovation.
- Inadequate attic depth and degraded original fiberglass batts in 1970s–1990s slab-on-grade ranch homes: Farther south in the 78745 and 78748 zip codes, the housing stock shifts to ranch-style homes where the original fiberglass batts have lost significant R-value through decades of humidity cycling. South Austin’s position east of the Balcones Escarpment puts it in a more humid coastal-plain air mass than North Austin, meaning moisture infiltration into degraded batts is an ongoing issue — Icynene spray foam stops air movement and moisture drive simultaneously rather than just adding insulation depth.
