A Small Town on Two Counties

Spray Foam Insulation in Blackwell serves a small rural town that sits in both Nolan and Coke counties. The 2020 census counted 258 residents and 144 housing units, 16.0% vacant. Of occupied homes, 76.0% are owner-occupied, and the homeowner vacancy rate was below 0.1%. The census lists the whole town as rural.

Mostly owners, mostly older residents

Blackwell's median age is 50.8, and 25.2% of residents are 65 or older. Owners who plan to stay get the most out of insulation work, because the savings and comfort add up over years. For residents who are home most of the day, a sealed attic and steady indoor temperatures matter.

What we do here

In older homes, we seal the attic floor, insulate and weatherstrip the hatch, and blow in insulation to depth. If the house is on piers, we look at the floor. Many properties include steel barns and shops that benefit from foam on the roof.

Oak Creek water

Roby's history notes that during a 1953 drought, water was piped from Oak Creek Lake at Blackwell. If your place is near the lake, we look at any cabin, shop or storage building on the same visit.

Climate zone

Both Nolan and Coke counties are Climate Zone 3B on OpenEI's list. The 2015 code Texas uses calls for R-38 ceilings in Zone 3.

Schools

Blackwell Consolidated ISD serves the town. Nolan County is in the Western Texas College District and Coke County is in the Howard County Junior College District.

Small homes, simple fixes

In a smaller home, the best value is usually in the attic: seal the ceiling, insulate the hatch and blow in to depth. If the house is on piers, the floor is next.

Steel buildings

Ranch properties around Blackwell include steel barns and shops. Closed-cell foam on the roof stops condensation drip and cuts heat.
