re: Adding insulation to existing home

Yes. My house actually faces NE.
I planned on just doin walls that are exterior. They can be sprayed with foam but the guy said they don't fix the holes and there will be a top and bottom hole between each stuff that will have to be fixed and obviously painted afterwards.
I didn't know if they could go from the attic down into the walls but I don't think that's possible. My power bill is astounding buy it's not a huge house either

Your walls have no existing fiberglass insulation? If the vertical wall studs have a horizontal firebreak stud between them they have to go top and bottom. I’ve watched video of them going through the attic where no firebreak existed but access to the top plate is often the issue. Also watched video where they remove a piece of siding on the exterior wall (non-brick) to spray foam walls and then re-install the sliding.
