Farm Country Near Wheeler Dam
Spray Foam Insulation in Town Creek serves a small Lawrence County town at the crossroads of U.S. 72 and State Route 101, southeast of Muscle Shoals and northwest of Decatur. Route 101 runs north to Wheeler Dam on the Tennessee River. Town Creek was first called Jonesboro after an early settler, incorporated in 1875, and has been Lawrence County's second-largest town since 1920. It had 1,052 residents in 2020 and 499 housing units, 10.0% vacant.
Houses and land
Most homes around Town Creek are single-family houses on crawl spaces, many on land with a barn, shop or equipment building. In the house, the usual problems are thin attic insulation and a crawl space that stays damp in summer. Outside, it is steel buildings that sweat and bake.
What we typically do
- Seal the attic floor, then blow insulation to the Zone 3 depth
- Check the crawl space for water and failed batts, then encapsulate or reinsulate
- Spray closed-cell foam on shop and barn steel to stop condensation
- Seal around doors and eaves in buildings meant to be heated or cooled
Historic site nearby
The Goode-Hall House north of town is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, one of several older homes in the area. Older houses get a more careful approach that avoids trapping moisture.
Costs for country properties
HomeGuide lists a typical blown-in attic at $900 to $3,600 and closed-cell spray foam at $3.00 to $5.00 per square foot nationally. Steel buildings are priced by the area of roof and wall to be sprayed and the thickness needed to stop condensation or hold a temperature. Small jobs often run into a minimum charge, which HomeGuide puts at $1,000 to $2,000 or more, so it can be worth doing the house and a shop together. Your written estimate is what you pay.

Town Creek Questions
Do you come out to Town Creek?
Yes. Combining the house and an outbuilding on one visit can make the trip and any minimum charge go further.
Will foam on a barn roof stop it from sweating?
Closed-cell foam bonded to the underside of the steel keeps humid air off the cold metal, which is what causes the sweating.
How thick should foam be on a barn roof?
To stop condensation, a modest layer of closed-cell bonded to the steel is usually enough. A building you plan to heat or cool needs more. We write the thickness on the quote.
