    Looks like an awesome project. I'm not as qualified as yourself but am undertaking a similar project here: microhouse.wordpress.com. I'll be sure to add you to my blog roll to get the word out. Looks great!

    Best of luck,

  2. Spray Foam Roofing is a common word used in the building industry, but still not as readily used in our market. There are typically 2 types of spray foam used today. One is an open cell foam insulation and the other is a closed cell foam insulation.
