should I insulate basement walls adjacent to garage?

4 years ago

I have a spray foam guy coming next week. He charges by the sq foot. So I’m wondering if there’s any point in spraying 2 basement walls I have which are against 2 garage walls?

My garage is heated. Do I bother getting them to spray the walls and rim joists on these 2 walls?

I’m not certain as on the other side or the basement foundation walls is soil, but directly above that space is a heated garage.

Thanks
