Nice lookin' place Tom. I like the heat shield. 60kmh! I think we know what country you're in. I could use a score like that on flooring.

Nice Build! Good riddance to the trailer.
My wife and i initially thought about setting up a trailer. We built cabins instead. We have no regrets. Better insulated and no mice.

Quoting: tombiosis I went with the expensive diy spray foam and the added r-20 so the floor wold be super warm...
Tell me more about your spray foam? What brand did you use and how did you like the application?
I need to do this next year and I'm reading up on everything I can find on it.

snobbs,
The spray foam on(in) the floor was the DIY kit from home depot...2 tanks and hose etc...it was over 800$ but it covered my 12X24 floor with a bit to spare, about 6-8 inches thick.
You need the right temp range to apply, so the weather has to cooperate, which it did in my case.
The stuff is toxic so you need the right gear...(mask, suit, gloves etc.)
Read the instructions carefully. Luckily my guy had done it before and knew what he was doing.
The spray foam on the ceiling was a pro job...big truck comes in to apply it...big bucks though, like 3 grand for my ceiling and he did a bunch where the 2 buildings join.

I assume you used the closed cell stuff? I know it has to be warm out to use it, which makes sense. I know I need to do the underside of my floor and the roof because it is metal. Was it pretty user friendly to apply it once going?

When I did my metal building the insulation contractor recommended using open cell on the roof so if there was a leak is would come through and not hold water against the tin.
