Is $300 to spray closed cell foam in half of basement rim joists a fair price?
Project Details
I just remodeled my kitchen on the main floor and had closed cell foam sprayed in all previously uninsulated cavities. I paid an insulation company to spray closed cell foam in my unfinished basement rim joists while they were there, covering half of them. I'm considering having them spray all rim joists. We have had some mouse issues, but not severe. I assume this will deter the mice, but I know they might still find a way through. It already feels warmer. I considered using poly and spray foam, but there are a few places where I can see light from the outside due to fiber cables, conduit, etc.
