Trusted roof replacement in Ames, IA. Our certified crews deliver precision workmanship and guaranteed results.
When a Ames roof has reached the end of its serviceable life — saturated insulation, structural damage, or multiple failed repair attempts — Lapolla Industries performs complete tear-off and replacement with modern spray foam roofing systems that deliver superior performance for decades.
When Ames, IA property owners need roof replacement, they turn to Lapolla Industries for the same reason thousands of customers nationwide do: we solve the root problem, not just the symptom. Our diagnostic approach uses infrared scanning, moisture mapping, and visual inspection to ensure the solution we recommend is the one your building actually needs.
With over two decades of spray foam experience, our Ames crews have seen every roof replacement scenario Iowa weather can create. We use that experience to select the right foam type, coating system, and application method for your specific property — delivering roof replacement results that hold up to Ames conditions year after year.
From inspection to completion, here is how we deliver professional roof replacement results.
Our assessment process goes beyond a visual check. We examine substrate conditions, drainage patterns, existing insulation performance, and structural integrity. This data-driven approach ensures we recommend the right spray foam solution for your specific property.
Our preparation process includes substrate inspection, cleaning, moisture testing, and priming. We mask all areas not receiving foam, set up containment where needed, and verify that temperature and humidity conditions are within specification for application.
Our factory-trained crews apply spray polyurethane foam using calibrated equipment that ensures consistent thickness, proper density, and complete coverage. The foam expands on contact, fills every gap, and bonds permanently to the prepared substrate.
The final step is applying a protective topcoat that shields the SPF from UV exposure and provides the weather surface. We select the coating type based on your roof slope, ponding conditions, and desired service life. After coating, we clean up completely and review the finished project with you.
