From Stagecoach Stop to Small City
Spray foam insulation in Woodburn usually involves older houses and farm buildings. Woodburn began as Mason's Inn, a stagecoach stop. The railroad depot followed in 1859, the town was platted in 1865 and became a city in 1866.
An older population
In the 2000 census, Woodburn's median age was 44, and about 26% of residents were 65 or older. The 2020 count was 303. Many owners here have lived in their homes for years and want lower bills and fewer drafts without a major renovation.
What older homes need
Attic sealing and depth come first. Older crawl spaces often have no insulation or batts that have fallen, and vents that let humid summer air in. Encapsulation or properly supported floor insulation fixes that. Walls can be dense-packed where needed.
Historic houses
The William P. Neale House, the Polk House and the Dr. William Robb House in Woodburn are on the National Register of Historic Places. We use methods that keep the outside of older homes unchanged.

Woodburn Questions
What is the most affordable way to make an old house more comfortable?
Sealing the attic floor and adding blown-in insulation. It is usually the biggest improvement for the money.
Should I insulate my crawl space floor or walls?
It depends on moisture and how the house is heated and cooled. We look and recommend one approach in writing.
Do you come out for small jobs?
Yes. Small jobs may hit a minimum charge, and we tell you that up front.
How do you insulate a crawl space under an old house with stone piers?
Pier foundations with open sides are hard to seal, so we usually insulate the floor above instead. Closed-cell foam under the subfloor stops air and adds R-value, and it is not damaged by the humidity that comes through the open sides.
