Great Northern Spray Foam

Today we have a purple house; reminds me of the 60's song, "Purple People Eater", no idea why.  I guess until we get the steel siding on we have the most psychedelic house on Coe Is Lake.


Before the truck arrived TJ and Dave were busy installing the last of the doors. Of course we had parts missing, so called Fibertec, and they will let us know when they get replacement parts.



This was one of the few days we didn't get rain, so Mary was busy with yard clean-up and her favourite job, burning the rubbage.



About 10 o'clock, the truck rolled in, as expected, and the spray guys were soon busy covering the exterior walls.



Bill makes the job look easy, but he has been doing it for over 20 years, so I guess you would develop some sense of what was best after doing so many walls. I wonder how many tons of spray foam he has gone through?


Sean, was the clean-up guy and I was delighted to see a crew that cleaned up after themselves. Very easy to get the job done, leave and then the home owner has to step in. That's another reason I like the way "Great Northern" spray foam does business. They trim off any over spray, then bag all the garbage and take it away with them.


The spray job is done and it looks great. Now comes the ................



............  clean up.

Two more spray applications and our house should be draft free, and weather tight.

Thanks for dropping by.
