Closed-Cell Spray Foam in Katy, TX

Closed-cell spray polyurethane foam is the highest-performing insulation product available for Katy's humid Gulf Coast climate. At R-6.5 per inch, it delivers more insulating value per inch than any other product, while simultaneously acting as an air barrier and vapor retarder. For moisture-exposed assemblies, metal buildings, and crawl spaces, it's the definitive choice.

What Makes Closed-Cell Different

Closed-cell foam gets its name from its cellular structure — billions of tiny closed cells that trap insulating gas inside and prevent moisture and air from passing through. Unlike open-cell foam (or fiberglass), closed-cell foam doesn't absorb water, doesn't allow moisture vapor to pass through at typical thicknesses, and doesn't compress or settle over time.

Highest R-Value

R-6.5 per inch means you achieve R-13 in just 2 inches — critical where space is limited.

Built-In Vapor Retarder

At 2 inches, closed-cell foam meets IRC vapor retarder requirements for Climate Zone 2A. No poly sheeting needed.

Complete Air Barrier

Stops air infiltration in all directions — more effective than any other insulation type.

Structural Contribution

Closed-cell foam adds racking strength to wall panels and roof structures — documented in testing.

No Moisture Absorption

Closed-cell foam exposed to flooding or high humidity doesn't absorb water and doesn't lose R-value when wet.

Permanent

Doesn't sag, settle, or degrade. A closed-cell installation is a lifetime upgrade.

When to Choose Closed-Cell Over Open-Cell

Crawl spaces and under-slab applications
Rim joists and band joists
Metal building walls and roof panels
Barndominium exterior assemblies
Exterior walls in humid climates
Areas with potential flood exposure
Cold storage rooms and walk-in coolers
Any assembly where vapor control is required
