Featured Project
Clarissa's Closet
I recently had my first experience in building a set from polystyrene foam. I found the UnivFoam company through searching on the web and I called to get some questions answered since I had never used the product before. Eric Ferg was very knowledgeable and helpful. Set building is not my area of expertise and he helped me figure out exactly what I needed to accomplish my vision of our set. Working with the foam was a pleasure. It is lightweight and accepts paint very well. My husband (who helped me construct the set) and I were so pleased with the outcome of our efforts. The set tuned out even better than we had planned. I will definitely use this product again and I will do business with UnivFoam. Everything was delivered on time and in perfect condition. Our experience was very positive both with the company and Eric, in particular. I highly recommend this product!

Upgrading to Encapsulated Floatation
These photos show a 19 year old floating dock with un-encapsulated foam and a new floating dock using encapsulated floats. The top deck of the un-encapsulated floats are plywood and 2X6' s, the bottom of the floats are 2X4 redwood , the top and bottom are connected with all thread rod. The customer upgraded because the 19 year old un-encapsulated docks was showing signs of wear.
