Cedar Rapids's trusted spray foam contractor for commercial roofing, residential insulation, and emergency roof repair across Iowa.
Professional roofing, coating, and insulation services for Cedar Rapids property owners and facility managers.
Closed-cell and open-cell spray foam attic insulation that eliminates air infiltration and creates a continuous thermal barrier from ridge to eave. Most projects completed in a single day with immediate comfort improvement.
Our commercial restoration process preserves your existing roof structure, adds insulation value, and applies a warranted waterproof coating system — saving 50 to 70 percent versus tear-off and replacement on buildings of any size.
Cold floors, musty smells, and high energy bills often trace back to an uninsulated or poorly insulated crawl space. Our closed-cell spray foam seals the entire crawl space envelope — walls, rim joists, and sill plates — creating a conditioned space.
From minor surface patches to full-section refoaming and recoating, our repair crews restore SPF roof performance using materials compatible with your existing system. Every repair is blended seamlessly and warranted.
Hail, wind, and debris damage demand immediate attention and thorough documentation. Our crews respond quickly, document all damage with photos and measurements that satisfy insurance adjusters, and restore your roof completely.
Waterproof your flat or low-slope roof with a spray-applied membrane system that eliminates the seam failures, flashing leaks, and ponding damage that plague conventional roofing. One seamless application. Permanent results.
Complete SPF roof systems for commercial and residential buildings. Our factory-trained crews apply closed-cell foam directly to your roof deck, creating a monolithic waterproof membrane that eliminates seams, joints, and the leak points they create.
Metal roofs leak at fasteners, seams, and panel overlaps. Our coating systems bridge and seal every one of these failure points while adding a reflective finish that reduces surface temperatures and cooling costs significantly.
Know the true condition of your roof before problems escalate. Our inspection process covers every component — membrane, flashings, penetrations, drains, and substrate — and delivers a clear, actionable report you can trust.
Preventive roof maintenance programs with scheduled inspections, drain cleaning, minor repairs, and detailed photo-documented condition reports. Catch small problems before they become expensive emergencies.
Full roof replacement with spray polyurethane foam delivers superior insulation, waterproofing, and wind uplift resistance compared to conventional membrane systems. We strip the old roof, inspect the deck, and install a new SPF system built for decades.
Roof leaks get worse with every rain. Our crews respond fast, identify the exact source using infrared and moisture mapping, and apply permanent repairs using spray foam and coating systems designed for long-term performance.
Extend the life of your existing roof by 15 to 20 years with a silicone coating that seals every seam, reflects solar heat, and handles ponding water without softening or deteriorating. Professional application with manufacturer warranty.
Stop chasing flat roof leaks with temporary fixes. Our diagnostic approach pinpoints the exact failure point, and our repair methods address the root cause — whether it is failed flashing, membrane damage, or ponding water that needs re-sloping.
Complete roof restoration with spray foam and protective coatings that add 20 or more years of life to your existing roof — without the cost, waste, and disruption of a full tear-off and replacement.

The result is measurable savings from the first month.

Common questions about spray foam roofing and insulation in Cedar Rapids, IA.
Closed-cell foam is denser, provides a higher R-value per inch (R-6.5 vs R-3.7), and acts as a vapor and moisture barrier. Open-cell foam is lighter, more flexible, and more affordable. For roofing applications in Cedar Rapids we typically recommend closed-cell for its waterproofing properties. For interior wall insulation, either type may be appropriate.
Call us immediately for emergency tarping to prevent further water damage. Our Cedar Rapids storm damage crews respond quickly to secure your property, document all damage with photos and measurements for your insurance claim, and provide a complete restoration plan. We work directly with insurance adjusters to ensure your claim is handled smoothly.
Spray foam is one of the best solutions for flat and low-slope roofs in Cedar Rapids. The seamless application eliminates the seams and joints where conventional flat roof systems fail. SPF also self-levels to eliminate ponding water — one of the biggest causes of flat roof leaks and premature failure.
Spray foam insulation costs in Cedar Rapids typically range from $1.50 to $3.50 per square foot for open-cell and $3.00 to $7.00 per square foot for closed-cell. The exact price depends on the area being insulated, foam thickness, and accessibility. Most Cedar Rapids homeowners see a full return on investment through energy savings within 3 to 5 years.
Yes. Spray foam applied to crawl space walls and rim joists creates an airtight moisture barrier that eliminates condensation, musty odors, and cold floors. For Cedar Rapids homes with persistent crawl space moisture issues, closed-cell foam combined with vapor barrier encapsulation provides a permanent solution.
If your commercial roof in Cedar Rapids is structurally sound but showing surface deterioration — cracked coatings, minor leaks, UV damage — restoration with SPF and a new coating system is likely the better investment. If there is widespread substrate damage, saturated insulation, or structural concerns, full replacement may be necessary. Our inspection will determine which option is right.
Real reviews from property owners we have served across the country.
"Our metal warehouse roof had been leaking at the ridge and sidewall transitions for years. The coating crew sealed every penetration, fastener, and seam. Completely watertight now and the energy savings are a great bonus."
"Our 18-year-old roof was showing its age but still structurally sound. Lapolla Industries recommended restoration over replacement and it was the right call. New coating, sealed seams, and a 15-year warranty. Smart investment."
"They sprayed closed-cell foam in our attic and the difference was immediate. Our upstairs bedrooms are finally comfortable year-round and our heating bill dropped by about thirty percent. The crew was in and out in one day."
