Fixing Cold Floors: Basement Rim Joist & Crawlspace Insulation

Closed-cell spray foam insulation applied to basement rim joists

Cold main floors during winter are usually caused by uninsulated basement rim joists and leaky crawlspaces beneath your feet.

Rim Joist Sealing Benefits

  • Stops Ground Drafts: Rim joists sit right above concrete foundations, where wood meets masonry and leaks cold air.
  • Spray Foam Barrier: Applying 2 to 3 inches of closed-cell spray foam seals rim joist cavities.
  • Warm Ground Floors: Prevents winter drafts from chilling kitchen and living room floorboards.
