Old County Seat, Wet Climate

Spray foam insulation in Scottsville deals with older houses and a very wet climate. NOAA's 1991 to 2020 normals show about 53.97 inches of precipitation a year in Scottsville, with 7.6 inches of snow and a record low of minus 20. Rain like that makes crawl space moisture the first thing we look at.

An old county seat

Scottsville was laid out in 1816, established in 1817 and incorporated in 1860, and named for Charles Scott, Kentucky's fourth governor. It had 4,299 residents in 2020. Older homes near the square often have thin attic insulation and uninsulated walls.

Lake country

The Corps of Engineers created Barren River Lake in 1964 with a 146-foot earthen dam. The lake covers about 10,100 acres across Allen, Barren and Monroe counties. Lake houses and cabins that get used year-round often need better insulation than they were built with, and closed-cell foam in crawl spaces and under floors is a common fix.

A business town

Scottsville Questions

Our lake house is cold in winter. Where do we start?

Usually under the floor and in the attic. Many lake houses have open crawl spaces or piers with little floor insulation. Closed-cell foam under the subfloor works well there.

Does heavy rain affect insulation work?

It affects crawl spaces most. We check for water entry before sealing or insulating below the floor.

Do you travel to Scottsville from Bowling Green?

Yes. It is part of our regular area.

Can you insulate a cabin that sits on posts or piers?

Yes. For homes with open undersides, closed-cell foam sprayed directly under the subfloor is the usual approach. It seals the floor against wind and moisture and adds R-value without needing a sealed crawl space. We look at the framing and plumbing first, since water lines under the floor may need protecting too.
