Ranch & Agricultural Spray Foam in Greater Houston

Barns, metal shops, poultry houses, well houses, and stock tanks deal with Texas heat, humidity, and condensation. Phantom Foam installs ag-tough spray foam and liner systems that cut heat gain, stop drafts, and keep surfaces above the dew point—so buildings stay usable and animals, feed, and equipment are better protected.

Why Phantom Foam for Ranch & Ag

Stop Heat, Drafts & Roof “Sweat”

Metal and pole barns swing from blazing sun to cool nights. That drives condensation on roof panels and uncomfortable stalls.

Foam creates a continuous air/thermal layer that limits heat flow and humid air contact—keeping surfaces above the dew point.

  • Mitigate roof/sidewall sweat
  • Reduce dust & drafts at laps/eaves
  • Make arenas and bays usable year-round

Open-Cell, Closed-Cell & Liners—Specified Right

Open-cell covers big volumes and quiets echo (arenas, hay barns). Closed-cell adds rigidity, higher R/inch, and moisture resistance (shops, wash bays, exterior walls).

Where wash-down happens, we add spray-applied liners for a tough, seamless membrane.

  • Mix systems by zone for best value
  • Ventilation-aware specs
  • Clean passes, tidy edges, documented depth

Where Ranch & Ag Foam Delivers

Barns, Arenas & Stables

Open-cell for rooflines/volumes; closed-cell at rim joists and wash bays for durability and moisture control.

  • Mitigate roof/sidewall sweat
  • Tack rooms & office build-outs
  • Draft control at eaves/laps

Metal Shops & Equipment Sheds

Reduce summer heat and winter drafts so bays stay usable; protect tools and machines from condensation.

  • Quieter interiors
  • Better lighting comfort

Poultry, Dairy & Livestock

Closed-cell to tighten shells and manage humidity. Work is phased to keep animals stress-free.

  • Wash-down durability
  • Ventilation planning

Well Houses & Pump Rooms

Insulate and air-seal small enclosures to protect plumbing, pumps, softeners, and treatment gear.

Trough & Tank Liners

Spray-applied polyurea/elastomeric liners: seamless, tough membranes for water troughs, stock tanks, and containment.

  • No seams to fail
  • Conforms to odd shapes

Silos, Grain Bins & Cold Rooms

Target foam to reduce condensation on cool walls/roofs and stabilize storage conditions.

Process & Estimating

How We Work

  1. Walk-through: note sweating panels, gaps, animals/equipment, and access.
  2. Plan: open-cell/closed-cell/liner options with thickness targets and ventilation notes.
  3. Prep: isolate areas, protect feed/tack, and stage ventilation.
  4. Install: foam in lifts for adhesion/cure; liners sprayed for seamless coverage.
  5. Cleanup & QA: trim, depth checks, sealed details, clear close-out.

What Affects Price & Timeline?

  • Square footage, eave height & lift access
  • Foam type & target thickness (R-value)
  • Moisture/condensation strategy & coatings/barriers
  • Phasing around animals, chores & weather windows
  • Old insulation removal or surface repairs

Ranch & Ag Foam — FAQ

Can you work while animals are on site?
Yes—work is phased so animals are moved from the active bay. During application and cure we ventilate and restrict access; once cured, foam is inert.
Will foam stop roof “sweating” in my barn?
Foam raises interior surface temps and limits humid air contact, which helps mitigate condensation. We also seal laps/penetrations where drips start.
Open-cell or closed-cell for barns?
Open-cell excels for coverage and sound on rooflines/arenas. Closed-cell adds rigidity, higher R/inch, and moisture resistance on metal, rim joists, and wash bays.
Do you install trough & tank liners?
Yes—spray-applied polyurea/elastomeric liners create seamless, durable membranes for water troughs, stock tanks, and containment areas.
Will foam affect hay or feed?
We mask and isolate, then clean thoroughly. Hay/feed is moved or covered per plan. After cure, foam is inert and won’t shed fibers like some traditional products.
How long does a typical barn take?
Most single barns or shops finish in 1–2 days depending on height, access, and weather. Liners add cure time; your quote includes a clear schedule.
