The Ecologic Standard
The foam matters. The install matters more.
Every failed spray foam job you've ever read about was applied by a person. So was every flawless one. Ecologic is built on the premise that process, testing and documentation separate the two. Luck has nothing to do with it, and neither does the logo on the drum.
01 Who you're dealing with
Run by the person who answers the phone.
Ecologic Spray Foam Insulation is a Winnipeg company run day-to-day by Keith Bowie. When you call 204-509-FOAM, you're talking to the person responsible for your job: the quoting, the scheduling, the crew and the standard the work is held to. No call centre, no sales layer, no telling the estimator something the installer never hears.
We're licensed to install 2lb closed-cell, 0.5lb open-cell and 3lb roofing foam, and we've worked on homes, cottages, commercial buildings, farms and industrial projects across Manitoba, including community housing projects with First Nations and the Manitoba Métis Federation.
The company is CUFCA-certified and BBB A+ accredited. Both of those are verifiable, and we explain below why one of them matters more than most homeowners realize.

02 What certification actually means
CUFCA certification is a system with teeth.
The Canadian Urethane Foam Contractors Association runs the quality-assurance program behind Canada's spray foam standards. Certification is personal, annual, and revocable. Here is what it obligates us to do on your job:
Certified installer on site
At least one trained, certified installer carrying current CUFCA photo ID on every job site. The certification renews yearly and can be pulled for substandard work.
The daily work record
CAN/ULC-S705.2 requires logging substrate temperatures, pass thicknesses, batch numbers and site conditions daily. This is the document that makes an install provable years later.
Daily field testing
Adhesion, cohesion and core-density tests, on site, with approved kits, checked against the listed values for the foam being sprayed.
Insurance and audit
The program requires $2M liability coverage and runs independent spot surveillance, with mandatory inspection on large jobs. Third parties check our work; we're fine with that.
One practical tip whether you hire us or not: ask any spray foam contractor to show you a current CUFCA photo ID card before they spray. It's the single fastest way to separate a certified professional from a truck with a rig.
03 How we work
Every job runs the same sequence, boring on purpose.
Measure and quote in writing
Areas, thicknesses, target R-values, the rebate estimate and the re-entry time, all on the quote before you commit. No verbal ballparks that grow on install day.
Rebate pre-approval first
If your job qualifies for Efficiency Manitoba's program, the application goes in before the job is booked. Rebates without pre-approval don't exist.
Prep, spray, test, log
Work area segregated and ventilated, substrate checked, foam applied in listed pass thicknesses, field tests run, work record kept.
Walkthrough and paper
You see the finished work, you get the documentation: install record, product listing reference, rebate paperwork. Keep the file; it's worth real money when you sell.
