Spray foam insulation in Lancaster
What Lancaster homes mean for spray foam insulation
The Georgian and Victorian-era houses in Lancaster's historic core were built with balloon framing, plaster walls, and largely open rafter attics, and many carry local historic-district protections that limit exterior alteration. The mid-century and newer housing surrounding the core uses standard batt-insulated framing, a straightforward retrofit that does not carry the same preservation constraints.
Lancaster sits along the Hocking River at the base of Mount Pleasant, and the historic core downtown follows the river valley's original street grid.
