Is it more expensive to get a spray foam roof?

10 years ago

I didn't even know spray foam was used for roofing. It seems like a great idea thought since a lot of the heat in a building is lost through the roof. I just wonder if it's more expensive to get that done because it seems like it could save you money in the long run. http://www.mccsprayfoam.com/about

Thank you for your question Jeff.

The benefits of the insulating value of Spray Foam Roofing with
less energy expended on heating and cooling the residence makes the overall
application cost less expensive than conventional roofing.

There are a number of myths surrounding the usage of spray foam roofing like it is toxic or it is not durable. But that is not the case. It is durable and far from toxic and can be easily used for mobile homes and flat- topped homes. You can get some much needed advice here: http://bit.ly/2bET61J
