How much does spray foam insulation cost in Boca Raton?

Most Boca Raton homes run $3,500–$9,500 depending on square footage and scope. We give an itemized instant quote by ZIP code, and most homeowners recover the cost in 3–5 years on cooling savings.

Which areas does Cardinal Insulation serve?

We serve Boca Raton, Delray Beach, and Boynton Beach, FL — the entire tri-city corridor from the Boca inlet to Boynton's western estates.

How is Cardinal different from other insulation companies?

We run a 10-point inspection the industry skips, use local crews, quote same day, and back every seal with a lifetime workmanship warranty with FLIR proof reports.

Will spray foam lower my FPL bill?

Yes. Our sealed homes average a 37% cooling-cost reduction. Closed-cell foam plus a radiant barrier reflects up to 97% of radiant heat gain.

How fast can you inspect my home?

Same-week — usually within 3–5 days, often faster. Use the Schedule Inspection button to grab a real-time slot.

Do you work on new construction and existing homes?

Both. We engineer thermal packages for new builds and retrofit existing homes across Boca, Delray, and Boynton.

Is spray foam safe for Florida humidity and coastal homes?

Yes. Closed-cell foam acts as a moisture barrier and structural reinforcement, ideal for salt-air coastal environments.

Insulation Removal in Pompano Beach, Florida

Old, water-damaged, or rodent-contaminated insulation has to come out before new material goes in — and doing it wrong spreads fiberglass, mold spores, and allergens through your whole home. Cardinal removes attic and crawl space insulation under negative-pressure containment across Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Boynton Beach, West Palm Beach, and Parkland, then sanitizes the cavity so your new insulation starts clean.

Insulation Removal for Pompano Beach Properties

insulation removal is the workhorse of Florida attic retrofits. For Pompano Beach properties, this is frequently the right specification — but we will tell you plainly when it is not, and when a less expensive approach delivers the same outcome.

Pompano Beach sits in South Florida, where the recommended attic target is R-38 to R-49. That number, along with where your ductwork runs and what condition the existing assembly is in, is what determines the right specification for your property.

Types and Methods

Attic insulation removal

Truck-mounted vacuum extraction of fiberglass, cellulose, or contaminated material from the attic floor. We work under negative-pressure containment so dust, mold spores, and fiberglass particles never enter your living space. The cavity is cleaned to bare framing, ready for new insulation.

Crawl space insulation removal

Removal of wet, moldy, or rodent-damaged insulation from crawl space floor joists. We bag and seal the contaminated material on-site, then sanitize the cavity with an antimicrobial treatment before any new insulation is installed.

If your existing insulation is clean, dry, and intact, you may not need removal — we can often top up over it. A free FLIR inspection tells you which you need. We never recommend removal as an upsell — only when it actually improves the outcome.

Attic insulation removal across the corridor typically runs $1.50–$4.00 per square foot depending on material type, contamination level, and access. Heavily contaminated or rodent-damaged attics cost more due to sanitizing. Get an instant itemized quote by ZIP code.

If your existing insulation is water-damaged, compressed, moldy, or rodent-contaminated, yes — installing new material over it traps moisture and odor. Clean, dry, intact insulation can sometimes be topped up, but a free FLIR inspection tells you which you need.

Most single-family attics are cleared and sanitized in one day. Larger homes or heavily contaminated cavities can take two days. We contain the work area so your home stays livable throughout.
