Barn, Shop & Ag Building Insulation in Dover, OH

Barn, shop and ag building insulation is a big part of our work in a valley full of farms, woodworking shops and small manufacturers. Steel roof and wall panels are thin and conduct heat quickly. When warm, moist air inside the building meets a cold panel, water condenses and drips, onto equipment, lumber, feed and finished goods. In winter, an uninsulated steel building is close to impossible to heat.

Closed-cell foam on steel

We spray closed-cell foam directly onto the panels and framing. It bonds to the metal, so there is no cold surface left for condensation, and it insulates at about R-5 to R-7 per inch, per HomeGuide. It also seals laps, fastener holes and gaps at the eaves and ridge.

Matching the building

A cold storage barn may need only a thin layer on the roof to stop dripping. A heated woodshop or equipment shop needs walls and roof. Livestock barns need ventilation planned with the foam. We ask how the building is used, how it is heated and how doors open before we size the job.

Coatings and barriers

Foam left exposed in a building people use may need a coating or barrier, depending on the product listing and use. We include that on the quote when it applies.
