How Owens Corning Products Fail – and How We Fix Them

• Foam separating from the sheathing. We see this most often with Owens Corning Foamular XPS boards in older attic retrofits. Austin’s temperature swings run the foam through extreme expansion and contraction cycles, and an adhesive that held up fine in a mild climate fails after two or three Central Texas summers. The foam pulls away from between the studs, leaving air gaps exactly where you don’t want them. We pull the loose board, test the cavity, and re-set it with an adhesive rated for our climate range.
• Air leakage at attic hatch and chase seams. Closed-cell foam around a chase in a South Congress home will stop a leak, but only if the foam was placed correctly. We regularly find gaps where the foam crew stopped short at a seam or cut a corner instead of filling it. The fix is straightforward: cut back the bad section, recoat the seam, and verify with a thermal scan. The difference is immediately visible on the infrared.
• Moisture-trapping in open-cell foam over the garage. Open-cell foam breathes, and here’s the Austin reality: if a garage ceiling was treated with open-cell foam over the slab and the garage door gets opened daily in July, humidity gets in and the foam holds onto it. We see this in homes from Circle C to Pflugerville. The solution isn’t more open-cell; it’s a moisture barrier or a closed-cell reapplication in the affected bays. Glenn has spent enough time in hot attics to spot this one before the customer notices a smell.
• Rim joist spray foam that never cured correctly. Owens Corning foam kits are DIY-friendly, but rim joist work in a crawl space isn’t the place to learn. We’ve fixed too many homeowner jobs where the foam cured soft or crumbly because the surface temp was wrong or the can wasn’t shaken long enough. The symptom: foam that flakes with a fingertip. The fix: remove the bad pass, clean the surface, and reapply properly with professional equipment.
• Roof deck foam with thermal bypass at the soffit. On Owens Corning closed-cell roof deck jobs, the weak point is rarely the foam itself. It’s the transition at the soffit vents. When the roofline isn’t continuous, air sneaks around the foam at the eave. We inspect every roof deck job with an airflow check at the soffit, not just a visual look at the foam face.

Our Owens Corning Spray Foam Insulation Process

1. 1
   You call, we pick up. A live person answers (361) 418-9997 at any hour. We ask about your space, your existing insulation, and what you’re seeing. Then we set a firm arrival window.
2. 2
   We show up and look. Glenn or one of our background-checked, uniformed techs walks the job with you. We check cavity depth, air movement, existing foam condition, and any problem spots you’ve noticed. If you can feel a hot spot in your house, there’s a reason, and it’s usually something we can fix.
3. 3
   You get a written price. Before anything is touched, we hand you a written quote. No range that changes at the door, no “we’ll see how it goes.” The number on the paper is the number you pay. That’s the Kingswell way.
4. 4
   We do the work clean. We cover surfaces, run hoses carefully, and clean up as we go. When we’re done, the attic or crawl space is neater than when we started.
5. 5
   We test, you inspect. Thermal imaging on spray foam jobs, air flow checks on rim joists, a visual walkthrough on every square foot. We don’t leave until we can show you the difference.
6. 6
   You get the guarantee in writing. Every job includes a written guarantee. If anything fails within 365 days, we come back and fix it at no charge. That’s our Done Right Promise, not a vague handshake.
