Caledonia Village and Township

Spray Foam Insulation in Caledonia covers an old village and a fast-growing township. The village was settled in 1838, incorporated in 1888 and had 1,622 residents in 2020. Caledonia Township around it grew from 8,964 in 2000 to 15,811 in 2020, with the Thornapple River running north through its center.

Village houses

Older homes in the village often need wall filling, attic sealing and rim joist foam. Newer neighborhoods such as Glen Valley need basement and bonus room work.

Permits

The Village of Caledonia contracts permitting to Imperial Municipal Services and lists finished basements among projects that typically require permits. In Glen Valley, exterior changes need Architectural Control Committee approval before a permit.

Outbuildings

Pole barns and shops in the township get closed-cell foam on steel to stop condensation.

Newer township homes

Most of the township's growth since 2000 is two-story and ranch homes with full basements and attached garages. Rim joists, basements before finishing and bonus rooms over garages are the usual jobs.

River and moisture

The Thornapple and Coldwater rivers run through the township. Homes on lower ground near them can have damp basements, which we check before foaming.

Climate targets

Kent County sits in Climate Zone 5A, where the Department of Energy recommends R-60 for an uninsulated attic.

Rebates

Depending on your heat provider, DTE or Consumers Energy may offset part of the cost. We record the area and R-value for your application.

One visit for house and shop

Many Caledonia properties have a house and a separate outbuilding. We can look at both on one trip: the attic, rim and basement in the house, and the roof and walls of the barn or shop, with each area priced on its own line so you can decide what to do first.
