Oklahoma City's new construction market is thriving — from infill development downtown to massive subdivisions across NW OKC. Bo's Insulation partners with builders to deliver on-time, code-compliant insulation for every new home.
Oklahoma City is experiencing one of the strongest new construction markets in the region. Builders are breaking ground on thousands of new homes each year — from sprawling developments in northwest Oklahoma City near Quail Springs and Deer Creek, to urban infill projects in Midtown and the Paseo District, to planned communities along the I-44 corridor. Every one of those homes needs professional insulation installed correctly and on schedule, and that is exactly what Bo's Insulation delivers.
The Bohannan brothers have been insulating new construction homes across the OKC metro for over eight years. We understand the pace of residential construction, the pressure builders face to stay on schedule, and the insulation requirements that Oklahoma's building codes demand. When you bring Bo's Insulation onto your new build project, you get a crew that shows up on time, installs to code or above, and never holds up your drywall crew. That reliability is why builders across Oklahoma City keep coming back to us.
Working with builders requires a different approach than working with individual homeowners. Builders operate on tight timelines with multiple trades coordinating around each other. A missed insulation day can push back drywall, paint, and every finish trade that follows. Bo's Insulation has built a reputation among OKC builders for one thing above all else: we show up when we say we will and finish when we say we will.
Our builder partnership process is straightforward. We review your plans and specs, provide competitive per-home or per-subdivision pricing, and lock in a schedule that aligns with your construction timeline. For production builders running multiple homes simultaneously across Oklahoma City, we can coordinate rolling installs — moving from house to house as each one reaches the insulation stage. For custom builders, we adapt to your unique timeline and specifications.
Every installation meets or exceeds the requirements of the current International Energy Conservation Code as adopted by Oklahoma. We are thoroughly familiar with the prescriptive R-value requirements for Climate Zone 3 (southern OKC) and Climate Zone 4 (northern OKC metro), and we ensure your homes pass insulation inspection on the first attempt. Failed inspections cost builders time and money, and our track record of first-pass approvals is one reason contractors throughout the metro trust us with their projects.
New construction gives you the widest range of insulation options because all wall cavities, attic spaces, and rim joists are fully accessible before drywall is installed. Here are the primary insulation types we install in new OKC homes:
Spray foam is the premium option for new construction and delivers the highest performance of any insulation material. Open-cell spray foam applied to the underside of the roof deck creates a conditioned attic space — keeping your HVAC ducts within the thermal envelope and eliminating the brutal 150-degree attic temperatures that OKC summers produce. Closed-cell spray foam is ideal for rim joists, crawl spaces, and areas requiring a vapor barrier. Many OKC builders are choosing spray foam as their standard insulation because it dramatically reduces callback complaints about comfort and energy bills.
Blown-in fiberglass insulation is a cost-effective option for new construction walls and attics. Using a dense-pack technique in wall cavities, blown-in fiberglass fills around wiring, plumbing, and electrical boxes more completely than traditional batts. In attics, it can be blown to any depth to achieve the target R-value. For OKC builders who need solid performance at a competitive price point, blown-in fiberglass is an excellent choice.
Fiberglass batts remain the most commonly specified insulation for new construction walls in the Oklahoma City market. When installed correctly — with no gaps, compression, or voids — batts provide reliable thermal performance at the lowest cost per square foot. The key is quality installation, and that is where many insulation crews fall short. Bo's Insulation takes the time to cut batts precisely around outlets, pipes, and wiring, ensuring full-cavity fill without compression. Our batt installations consistently pass inspection on the first visit.
Many of the most energy-efficient new homes in Oklahoma City use a hybrid insulation approach. A common combination is spray foam on the roof deck and rim joists with blown-in fiberglass or batts in the walls. This delivers the air-sealing benefits of spray foam where they matter most while keeping overall project costs reasonable. We help builders design the right insulation package for each home's specs and price point.
Insulation costs for new construction in the Oklahoma City area typically range from $1.50 to $3.00 per square foot of conditioned space, depending on the insulation type and home design. Here is a general breakdown:

Beyond new construction, Bo's Insulation offers a complete range of insulation services for existing homes throughout Oklahoma City:
New construction insulation in Oklahoma City typically costs between $1.50 and $3.00 per square foot of conditioned space. The exact cost depends on the insulation type — fiberglass batts are the most affordable, while spray foam delivers the highest performance at a higher price point. We provide free, detailed estimates for builders and homeowners.
Spray foam insulation offers the best overall performance for new OKC homes because it insulates and air seals at the same time. Many builders use a hybrid approach — spray foam in the attic and rim joists with blown-in or batt insulation in the walls — to balance performance and budget. We help builders choose the right combination for each project.
Yes. We partner with production and custom builders across the Oklahoma City metro. We coordinate with your construction schedule, install between framing and drywall, and ensure every home passes insulation inspection on the first attempt. Our on-time reliability is why builders throughout OKC trust us with their projects.
Insulation is installed after rough-in framing, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC ductwork are complete but before drywall goes up. This gives us full access to all wall cavities, attic spaces, and rim joists. Bo's Insulation coordinates directly with your builder to fit within this critical window without causing schedule delays.
