Shop & Pole Barn Spray Foam Insulation in Charlotte, NC
Closed-cell spray foam for workshops, metal shops and pole barns, so you can work in it in July and January without dripping metal.
Why Shops and Pole Barns Get Spray Foam
A shop with bare metal walls and roof drips when warm air hits cold panels, and it is too hot to work in all summer. Tools rust, projects get wet and heating it is money out the door.
Closed-cell spray foam goes straight onto the metal and around the purlins and girts. It insulates and air-seals in one pass and keeps the panels warm enough that condensation does not form.
Most shops get about 2 inches of closed-cell foam on the walls and roof, which handles condensation and makes the space comfortable to heat or cool. Insulating a warehouse or commercial steel building? See commercial metal building spray foam.

Frequently Asked Questions
How thick should spray foam be in a shop?
About 2 inches of closed-cell foam is typical for shops. It controls condensation and makes the space easy to heat or cool. If you plan to keep the shop conditioned all year, we can go thicker.
Do I need to insulate the roof as well as the walls?
Usually yes. The roof is where most heat comes in during summer and where condensation drips from in winter.
How is shop spray foam priced?
Spray foam is priced by the board foot: one inch thick over one square foot. Your price depends on the square footage of walls and roof you want covered and the thickness. Shops and garages usually get about 2 inches; homes need more. We give a ballpark from your measurements and confirm the final price after an on-site check.
Can you foam a shop that already has stuff in it?
Yes. We cover and protect what stays inside, but an emptier shop goes faster and costs less to prep.
