Spray Foam Insulation in Maud, TX

Spray Foam Insulation in Maud covers homes near Wright Patman Lake. Maud sits 18 miles from Texarkana via U.S. 67 and 4 miles north of the lake on the Sulphur River. The railroad reached the site in 1870, and the town was named for Maud Knapp, daughter of the man who donated the townsite.

Housing

The 2020 census counted 977 residents, 370 households and 433 housing units, 14.5 percent vacant, with a homeowner vacancy rate of only 0.8 percent. Homes that are owned tend to stay owned, which makes upgrades worth doing.

Depot neighbors

The Red River Army Depot and Lone Star Army Ammunition Plant, built 6 miles north during World War II, were the largest employers of Maud residents. Homes from the wartime and postwar decades are a large part of the town.

Lake humidity

Being close to a large lake and river bottomland adds to the area's humidity. Crawl spaces stay damp, and attics trap humid air. Closed-cell foam under floors and sealed crawl spaces help keep moisture out of the house.

Lake places

Cabins and homes near the lake are sometimes used part-time. If a place sits closed up, humidity builds. Sealing and insulating helps the house hold steadier conditions.

Code

Bowie County is Climate Zone 3A. Texas uses the 2015 IRC energy chapter: R-38 ceilings and R-19 floors in Zone 3.

Highway 8 and U.S. 67

Texas State Highway 8 runs through the area, and U.S. 67 connects Maud to Texarkana. Homes on those corridors pick up road noise that open-cell foam helps dampen.

Children at home

In 2020, 38.1 percent of Maud households had children under 18. Busy family homes benefit most from steady temperatures in bedrooms and lower bills.
