TIL comparing spray foam to batt insulation in my Calgary garage

I insulated my Calgary garage myself last month. Did the first half with fiberglass batts like I always do, took me two full afternoons and I still had gaps everywhere. Second half I rented a spray foam rig and finished in 4 hours flat. The R-value felt way better and no drafts around the outlets. Has anyone else made the switch and found it worth the extra cost?

Yeah it's crazy how paying a bit more upfront saves you so much time and frustration later on everything.

Four hours and no gaps? I'd say that's worth a few draft-free beers.
