Alice sits in the heart of the Texas Coastal Bend where oil-era brick and frame homes built in the 1920s through 1970s still carry the weight of hot summers and humid Gulf air pushing through tired attics and uninsulated walls. Most homes in 78332 sit on concrete slabs with vented attics above them, and that attic space, where your air handler and ductwork run year-round, is where the real heat and moisture problems start.
Our team at Corpus Christi Spray Foam Insulation has been serving Alice and the surrounding area since 2012. Homeowners here call us when their summer cooling bills have become unaffordable, when a west-facing bedroom stays hot no matter what the thermostat says, or when they open the attic access and find compressed, damp or rodent-fouled insulation that has to come out before anything new can go in. We show up, we tell you what's actually wrong, and we price the fix honestly.
Spray Foam Insulation in Alice (78332)
Alice's housing stock is a mix of solid brick-veneer ranches from the 1950s and 1960s with hot west walls and flattened attic fill, plus older frame and stucco homes that sit closer to the center of town. Nearly every home has a vented attic carrying the air handler and ductwork. In summer, that attic runs 140 to 160 degrees Fahrenheit, and the humid Gulf air, salt-laden and relentless, pushes moisture inward through every gap and seam. The result is condensation on duct metal, compressed fiberglass that holds moisture like a sponge, and west walls that never cool down.
Spray foam insulation stops both the heat and the air leakage. Closed cell foam, dense and vapor-retarding, seals rim joists, band joists, and crawl spaces where moisture creeps in from the ground. Open cell foam works in attics and interior walls where breathability matters and where you want the R-value per inch without the cost. We remove old, damp or compromised insulation first. We specify thickness and R-value in writing before we spray. We run mechanical ventilation during cure and respect the re-entry window. That is the difference between a job done right and one that smells for months.
We have been doing this work in Alice, Corpus Christi and the surrounding area for over a decade. We know the local building stock, the moisture challenges, and the way the energy code applies here.

How a Job Works in Alice
Step one is a free on-site assessment. We walk your attic, crawl space or walls with you. We look at what's there now, we measure the areas to be sprayed, and we talk honestly about what has to happen first. If insulation is wet, compressed or fouled, it comes out. If there is active moisture, a roof leak, condensation dripping off ductwork, or standing water in a crawl space, we identify it and tell you what needs to be fixed before any foam goes in. We do not spray over a wet substrate.
Step two is the spray itself. We set up mechanical ventilation before we start. We apply the foam in controlled passes to the thickness and R-value we have specified in writing. For attics in Alice, that usually means covering the attic floor, sealing the rim and band joists where the attic meets the exterior wall, and air sealing around any ductwork or penetrations. For wall injection or crawl space work, we protect the substrate, control the application, and make sure the foam cures properly. If you are living in the home, we give you a clear re-entry window, usually twenty-four to forty-eight hours depending on conditions.
Step three is cleanup and a final walkthrough. We remove our equipment, we vacuum up any debris, and we leave your property clean. You get a written record of what was sprayed, where, and to what thickness and R-value.
Pricing for spray foam insulation in Alice depends on the area to cover, the thickness and R-value you need, whether you choose open cell or closed cell foam, and whether old insulation has to be removed first. An attic top-up in a modest Alice home typically runs from $1.50 per square foot for open cell application. Crawl space sealing starts around $2,500 and goes up with the square footage and the depth of the space. Rim and band joist sealing, critical in older homes where that joint is wide open to the outside, starts at $650. Wall injection foam for a closed wall cavity runs from $2 per square foot. Insulation removal, which is often the first step, starts at $950. The final number depends on what we find on site. That is why we do a free on-site assessment and give you a written estimate with R-value and thickness specs before we spray a single board foot. Call us at (361) 278-8446 to schedule yours.
