Heavy Snow on the North Shore of White Lake
Spray Foam Insulation in Montague deals with real snow. Wikipedia's climate table for Montague shows an average of 26.0 inches of snow in January alone. Snow on the roof is fine as long as the attic stays cold; when heat leaks into the attic, it melts from below and freezes at the eaves into ice dams. Sealing the attic floor and adding depth is the fix.
Founded by the Ferrys
Noah Ferry founded the city and named it for his father, William Montague Ferry, who founded Grand Haven and Ferrysburg. The post office opened on Ferry Street in 1867, and Ferry Church dates to 1874. Older homes near downtown come from that era and the decades after.
Housing today
Montague had 2,417 residents in 2020, with a median age of 44.1 and 22.3% of residents 65 or older. The city is independent of Montague Township, which surrounds it on three sides and holds farms, orchards and rural homes with outbuildings.
Climate
Montague has a humid continental climate, with warm, often humid summers and cold, sometimes severe winters. That calls for air sealing in both seasons and closed-cell foam where cold surfaces meet indoor moisture.
Trail town
The city is the southern end of the Hart-Montague Trail. Owners of rental cottages and seasonal homes near the trail often want insulation that makes a house usable in shoulder seasons.
Farm and orchard buildings
Montague Township surrounds the city on three sides, and its farms and orchards have barns, packing sheds and equipment buildings. Steel buildings drip condensation when the weather swings; closed-cell foam on the steel stops it and makes heated work areas practical.
