I live in a 1930s house and have been told that the space in my cavity walls is too thin for insulation. Any ideas?

From: Darren Gomez

you can use spray foam insulation!! if you are in louisiana call me 504-256-4536


From: Joanne

you can use spray in insulation (cellulose or icynene), sprayed through interior walls (the walls need to be patched and painted afterwards- you can save this for when you doing any extensive renovation) or through exterior walls (do this if you are having your exterior cladding redone or single shingles can be removed for spraying in).
there is also a product called comfort foam that you can spray into thinner walls (your walls are probably 2x4s) that works well.
