Energy-efficient spray foam solutions for Ames, IA. Roofing, insulation, and coatings that reduce energy costs and extend roof life by decades.
Comprehensive spray foam roofing and insulation services tailored for Ames properties.
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.
Elastomeric coatings for standing seam, corrugated, and R-panel metal roofs. We seal rust spots, failing fasteners, open seams, and ridge caps — stopping leaks and adding reflective energy savings in a single application.
Upgrade your attic insulation from fiberglass or cellulose to spray foam and feel the difference the same day. SPF does not settle, sag, or leave gaps — it expands to fill every cavity and seals air leaks that other materials miss.
Expert repair for existing SPF roofs including blistering, coating deterioration, punctures, and storm damage. We restore your foam roof to like-new condition with matching materials and factory-specified application techniques.
Emergency storm damage response with tarping, property protection, detailed damage documentation for insurance, and complete roof restoration to pre-storm condition. We work directly with insurance adjusters.
Pre-purchase, post-storm, or routine maintenance — our inspection reports give you the data you need to make informed decisions about your roof. Infrared moisture scans reveal trapped water invisible from the surface.
New spray polyurethane foam roof installation that creates a seamless, self-adhering membrane with the highest R-value per inch of any roofing system. Energy-efficient, leak-proof, and engineered to last 30 to 50 years with periodic recoating.
Active roof leak? We locate the source using advanced detection methods, then repair it permanently at the root cause. No guesswork, no temporary patches — just lasting results backed by our workmanship warranty.
Flat roofs fail at seams, flashings, and penetrations. Our crews specialize in diagnosing and repairing these critical failure points using spray foam, liquid-applied membranes, and targeted coating systems that outlast conventional patch repairs.
Ponding water, chronic leaks, and moisture infiltration destroy roofs and building interiors. Our waterproofing systems use closed-cell spray foam and silicone coatings to create an impermeable barrier that handles standing water indefinitely.
When your roof is structurally sound but the surface is deteriorating, restoration is the smart investment. We clean, repair, and recoat your entire roof with a warranted system that performs like new at a fraction of replacement cost.
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.
When restoration is not enough, our crews perform complete roof tear-off and replacement with modern spray foam roofing systems. Full deck inspection, substrate repair, SPF application, and protective coating — all warranted.
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.
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.
Ames is a city with 70,294 residents and thousands of commercial and residential roofs that need protection from Iowa weather. Lapolla Industries serves Ames property owners with spray foam solutions that solve the problems conventional roofing creates — seam failures, ponding water, thermal bridging, and the chronic leaks that come with aging flat roof systems.
What sets Lapolla Industries apart in Ames is our diagnostic approach. We do not guess — we use infrared moisture scanning, core sampling, and visual inspection to understand exactly what your roof or building envelope needs before we recommend a solution. That data-driven process means fewer callbacks, longer-lasting results, and a spray foam system engineered for your specific Ames property.

Have questions about spray foam in Ames? We have answers.
Spray foam is one of the best solutions for flat and low-slope roofs in Ames. 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.
If your commercial roof in Ames 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.
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 Ames homes with persistent crawl space moisture issues, closed-cell foam combined with vapor barrier encapsulation provides a permanent solution.
Most residential attic insulation projects in Ames are completed in a single day. Our crews prep the space, apply the spray foam to the desired thickness, and clean up within 6 to 8 hours. The foam cures within minutes, and you can feel the difference in your home comfort levels the same day.
Yes. Every Ames crew is fully licensed, bonded, and insured for spray foam roofing and insulation work. We carry general liability and workers compensation coverage on every project. You can request proof of insurance before any work begins.
Absolutely. SPF roofing performs exceptionally in both extremes because the closed-cell foam provides continuous insulation without thermal bridging. In hot Ames summers, the reflective coating reduces surface temperatures by up to 50 degrees. In winter, the insulation value keeps conditioned air inside.
