BEWARE...Elite does not stand behind their product if you're having issues. $10,000 later and our roof leaks. The foam was sprayed unevenly and on 11/28/2023 the roof started leaking. Left messages and no return calls. Spoke with Andy on 9/05/2024, he said he'd come look at it. Haven't seen or heard from this company since I handed them $10,000!
CLARIFICATION...Per Elite's insulator, we we told if we had damage to our metal roof; the foam could be lifted off the underside of the roof to replace the damaged roof. According to our roofer and the insurance adjuster, that's not the case.

Arrived quickly and were very efficient in getting the job done.
Frequently Asked Questions About Elite Spray Foam Solutions LLC
What Are the Main Benefits of Insulating My Home or Business With Spray Polyurethane Foam Insulation?
Choosing spray polyurethane foam insulation for your home or business brings a multitude of benefits that extend beyond just improved energy efficiency. This advanced insulation solution not only has excellent insulation properties but also significantly outperforms traditional pink fiberglass insulation in almost every aspect.
One of the most immediate benefits you'll notice upon installing spray foam insulation is the substantial reduction in energy usage, with the potential to cut household energy consumption by up to 50%. This efficiency is largely due to the foam's ability to stop air leakage and infiltration, ensuring that cooled or heated air remains inside, maintaining a comfortable indoor climate year-round.
In addition to enhancing thermal efficiency, spray foam insulation contributes to a healthier indoor environment. It significantly reduces the potential for mold, mildew, dust, allergens, and pollen to enter your home, thereby improving indoor air quality. Moreover, its capacity to reduce outdoor noise results in a quieter, more serene living space.
Structurally, the use of closed-cell spray foam strengthens and adds rigidity to walls, offering increased resistance to external pressures and impacts. It also plays a crucial role in deterring pests, as the material is not a food source or suitable nesting ground for insects and rodents, thus significantly reducing the likelihood of infestation.
Another key advantage of spray foam is its moisture resistance. By preventing moisture penetration, it greatly reduces the risk of mold growth, a common concern in many homes and businesses. Additionally, closed-cell spray foam eliminates the need for a vapor barrier, streamlining the installation process and providing superior moisture control.
Spray foam insulation can also enhance the efficiency of your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system. By reducing the heating and cooling load, it's possible to downsize HVAC equipment by up to 30%, leading to fewer repairs and breakdowns and overall lower operational costs. This improved efficiency means the initial extra cost of spray foam often pays for itself within the first three years through reduced energy bills.
Another hallmark of spray foam insulation is durability; it won't sag, shift, or degenerate over time, ensuring it continues to perform effectively for the life of your building. This long-term performance contributes to a higher resale value of homes insulated with spray foam, making it a smart investment in the future value of your property.
Finally, spray foam insulation is a bio-based, non-toxic material, underscoring its role in creating a healthier and more comfortable living or working environment. By choosing spray foam, you're opting for a sustainable, high-performance insulation solution that delivers benefits well beyond its primary function.
How Does Spray Foam Compare With Fiberglass Batts?
Fiberglass batts will not stop air leakage. Blown-in cellulose will slow down air leakage. However, spray foam will STOP air leakage. Spray foam is also mold and moisture resistant, unlike fiberglass and cellulose.
Fiberglass batts have an R-value of about 3.5 per inch. However, this is not a true R-value since there is no air seal. Blown-in cellulose has an R-value of about 3 to 4 per inch) but also no air seal. Our spray foam insulation has a true R-value of 3.8 - 6.8, depending on the density of the foam we use (1-inch thickness).
Fiberglass batts can sag over time, and blown-in cellulose can settle over time, leaving sections of the stud cavity uninsulated. Spray foam insulation completely adheres to the wood studs and sheathing, resulting in a permanently sealed barrier against air penetration and leakage.
Spray foam will add strength and rigidity to your house. FEMA now requires homes in hurricane-prone areas to be constructed with spray foam insulation to withstand a storm's powerful winds better.
What Is the R-value (Insulation Value) of SPF Insulation?
Elite Spray Foam Solutions LLC offers a few different foam products of various densities. Our open-cell foam product has an R-value of 3.5 per inch. In most applications, a house constructed with 2x4 studs will have 3.5 inches of open-cell foam, resulting in a total R-value of 12. If the home is built with 2x6 studs, the R-value when insulating with open-cell foam can reach a maximum of R-20.
Our primary closed-cell foam has an R-value of 8.0 per inch and is usually sprayed between 2 and 3 inches thick, resulting in an R-value between 14 and 21. Spray foam is the only insulation product that offers a true R-value because it creates an actual air seal.
Which Is Better for My Property: Open-Cell or Closed-Cell Foam?
While we spray both types of foam, the preferred choice is closed-cell foam due to its higher R-value per inch, the strength it adds to the structure, and its effectiveness as a barrier against moisture. While it is slightly more expensive, many owners and contractors prefer it due to these features. However, if your project has a limited budget, open-cell foam is a good choice.
How Does Spray Foam Insulation Improve Indoor Air Quality and Comfort?
Spray foam insulation creates a sealed thermal envelope. When applied, the insulation conforms and fills each cavity, crack, and void. By filling these voids, you seal the house against wind, dust, moisture, pollen, spores, insects, mold, and allergens. Insulating your home with spray foam gives you a healthier, quieter, draft-free indoor environment with no harmful allergens that can affect your health.
How Is the Insulation Installed?
Spray foam insulation is sprayed into the wall cavity in between its wooden studs with very specialized equipment. The foam is sprayed on as a liquid, and within 2 to 10 seconds, it will turn to foam and expand up to 100 times its original size. The foam fills every nook and cranny, sealing all gaps and permanently adhering to the stud cavity.
How Does Spray Foam Insulation Control Moisture Movement and Condensation?
Most moisture damage in a building occurs when warm, moist indoor air is exchanged with the cold, dry air within an insulation cavity. As the moisture in the air condenses, it forms dew within the insulation. Because foam insulation is an air seal, this will not occur.
It is ideal for use in climates where buildings are both heated and air-conditioned because the situation is reversed in the summer, with moisture forming on the back of the interior vapor retarder.
Does Spray Foam Insulation Support Bacteria, Mold, or Fungal Growth?
No, our spray foam is an inert substance. Therefore, it does not support bacteria, mold, or fungal growth.
Does Foam Insulation Cause Any Electrical Wiring To Overheat or Any Problems With Metal Surfaces?
No, our spray foam insulation has been thoroughly tested and is not a concern to electrical authorities or corrosive to metals.
