Rant: Tried that spray foam insulation in my garage attic. Big mistake.

Bought a kit from Home Depot in Red Deer back in June. Figured I'd save a few hundred bucks. Got up there with a dust mask and goggles. Sprayed it between the joists. Looked great. Then it started expanding. And expanding. Pushed my drywall down on the sides. Cracked the ceiling below. Now I gotta tear it all out and pay a pro. Learned to just pay the pros for insulation. Anyone else had spray foam go sideways on them?

Bought the same kit from the same Home Depot, but in Leduc. Watched my insulation grow like a bad science experiment for a solid 10 minutes. Ended up with a weird foam stalactite hanging from a light fixture. Had to cut it out with a bread knife. Never again.
