Metal buildings in Kokomo.
Spray foam for steel and metal buildings across central Indiana.
How we do it.
- Closed cell goes on the steel.It can be sprayed directly on metal.
- Open cell needs a liner.Open cell goes on OSB or a proper liner, never on bare metal.
- High work is on us.We bring the lifts and scaffolding.
- Empty and accessible.The building has to be empty, with driveway access for a trailer about 10 feet tall.
What Kokomo buildings are like.
Kokomo is the largest town we cover in Howard County, and half of its 29,814 homes were standing before 1967. That is the era we do most of our retrofit work in, and it is why we usually start with the attic and the crawlspace.

Foam and thickness.
| Foam | Where it goes | Typical thickness | R-value per inch |
|---|---|---|---|
| Closed cell | Directly on metal. A coating over it is strongly recommended. | Quoted per job | R-7.6 to 8.1 |
| Open cell | On OSB or a proper liner. Never on bare metal. | Quoted per job | R-3.8 to 4.2 |
R-value measures how well insulation holds back heat. Higher is better. Closed cell is rigid and also blocks moisture; open cell is softer and dampens sound. Ranges are from Universal Polymers (UPC) data sheets, tested at 1 inch. We choose the foam for each job. See the data sheets

Which foam goes in a Kokomo building?
Howard County is in climate zone 5, the colder of the two zones Indiana spans. We spray both open cell (R-3.8 to 4.2 per inch) and closed cell (R-7.6 to 8.1 per inch), and which one a building needs depends on moisture and what the foam is going on. We tell you when we quote.
