The single spray foam job split, stated head-on first
| Frame | What it counts | 2026 band |
|---|---|---|
| Frame A | installed, per square foot by area | $1-$5 |
| Frame A | pro-completed job, per 1,000 square feet | $1,500-$6,200 |
| Frame B | closed-cell, per square foot including installation | $3.00-$5.00 |
| Frame B | open-cell, per square foot including installation | $1.50-$3.50 |
This cluster prices the single spray foam application job alone, by foam type and by scope on the companion guides. The covered-in-part risk is stated head-on: the crawl-space insulation guide carries a spray foam row inside its own multi-material ticket, and that row stands -- this cluster field is the foam job itself beneath it. Named apart, never a row here: the attic insulation ticket, the crawl-space insulation ticket, blown-in and batt materials, insulation removal, radiant barriers, and whole-house insulation packages, each in its own lane.
Frame A lines, as reported: the Angi frame
| Frame A line, as printed | 2026 band |
|---|---|
| Installed, 100 square feet | $100-$500 |
| Installed, 3,000 square feet | $3,000-$15,000 |
| Polyurethane, per board foot | $0.44-$1.50 |
| Open-cell materials row, per square foot | $0.60-$1.60 |
| Closed-cell materials row, per square foot | $1.30-$3.10 |
Frame A counts the job by area and by material: an installed per-foot band scaling with area, a board-foot row, and a materials split with open-cell and closed-cell rows priced apart, materials only.
Frame B lines, as reported: the HomeGuide frame
| Frame B line, as reported | 2026 band |
|---|---|
| Attic row, by area | $3,000-$8,000 |
| Basement row, by area | $2,500-$9,000 |
| Crawl space row, by area | $2,000-$4,000 |
| Rim joists row, by area | $2,000-$2,500 |
| All exterior walls row, by area | $4,000-$10,000 |
| Whole house row, by area | $8,000-$20,000 |
| Small-project minimum row | $1,000-$2,000+ |
Frame B counts the job installed: per-foot rows with installation in them, and by-area rows for each scope apart. The frames count the same closed-cell job differently -- an Angi materials-only per-foot row at $1.30-$3.10 against a HomeGuide installed per-foot row at $3.00-$5.00. That difference is named as a frame difference on every page here, never averaged.
The neighbours, differentiated
The crawl-space insulation guide prices that ticket as a whole on its own guide, with its spray foam row standing as one material lane inside it, never repriced here.
