Metal Building & Barndominium Insulation in Weatherford, TX

Metal building and barndominium insulation is a big part of our work in Parker County, where acreage around Weatherford, Springtown, Millsap and Aledo holds shops, barns, equipment buildings and steel homes. Bare steel absorbs sun and radiates heat inside. In cooler, humid weather, warm moist air meets cold panels and condenses, dripping onto tools, vehicles, hay and finished goods.

Closed-cell foam on steel

Closed-cell spray foam bonds directly to the panels and framing, so there is no cold surface left for condensation. It insulates at about R-5 to R-7 per inch, per HomeGuide, and seals laps, fastener holes and gaps at the eaves and ridge. For barndominiums, it can be part of a full wall and roof insulation plan.

Matching the building

A hay barn may need only enough foam on the roof to stop dripping. A cooled shop or a barndominium needs walls and roof, sized for the cooling load. Open-cell can be used in framed interior walls of a barndominium.

Permits and specs

Parker County's permitting department states that the county does not issue building permits or certificates of occupancy in unincorporated areas. That means the insulation spec on a rural build is between you and your builder; we help set one that works for the heat.

Exposed foam

In buildings people use, exposed foam may need a coating or barrier depending on the product listing and use. We include it on the quote when it applies.
