We researched the heck out of insulation for many months before deciding on Icynene foam. In our new house we insulated the underside of the roof sheathing and all exterior (2x6) walls with it. Reasons: It provides excellent insulation, vapor barrier, seals against infiltration and, unlike other types, if you get a leak in your roof it won't ruin the insulation. Icynene is fire resistant (I tried it). Check out your contractor, make sure to get references. He does need to mask off/avoid anything you will want to get access to (electrical junction boxes, etc.). Caulk any voids, gaps or cracks before hand. Enjoy. Ours has been in a week but already I'm amazed at how well it works and how quiet the new house is. Its like a thermos bottle.
