The costs related to getting spray foam insulation vary:
  1. What type of foam do you need to use. Is it open cell or closed cell spray foam?
  2. What are you insulating. Is it residential or commercial. As a rule of thumb residential or home insulation uses open cell spray foam and commercial uses closed cell spray foam insulation. 
  3. How large is the area to be insulated? The larger the lower per m2 price. Economics of scale apply. 
  4. In many cases a uValue is required to be met. This is achieved by controlling the depth. The deeper the foam depth the greater the cost.

Attic insulation costs depend on whether you need a 50 mm air gap between the roofing membrane or felt or not. If your home is new it may have been counter battened in which case you may pray directly on the roofing membrane. If not, which is more common you'll need to have a 50 mm air gap between the roofing felt or membrane and the roofing material to allow escaping water vapour leave the building. This is order to prevent the buildup of harmful damp and mould which ensures a healthy living environment for you and your family.
