Roof Spray Foam Removal WILTSHIRE

Spray Foam Insulation Removal Across Wiltshire

Spray Foam Insulation Removal Across Wiltshire

Spray foam insulation was once marketed as a modern solution to loft and roof insulation. However, for thousands of UK homeowners, it has become a costly and stressful issue — especially when trying to sell or re-mortgage their property.

Here are some reasons why spray foam insulation can do more harm than good:

🔍 Blocks Essential Ventilation

Spray foam can seal your loft space too tightly, preventing the roof from breathing. This traps moisture, leading to damp, mould, and even timber rot.

🔎 Conceals Roof Structure

Once installed, spray foam covers your rafters and felt, making it difficult for surveyors to inspect the roof. This often raises red flags during mortgage valuations or surveys.

🏠 Mortgage & Re-mortgage Problems

Many lenders refuse mortgages on homes with spray foam insulation — particularly when it’s applied to the underside of the roof tiles or felt. Some lenders may require complete removal before offering to lend against the property.

❌ Risks of Roof Timber Damage

If water gets in (from a minor leak or condensation), spray foam can hide the damage until it’s too late. This puts your roof structure at risk and can lead to expensive repairs.

💸 Reduces Property Value

Spray foam insulation can lower the resale value of your home, reduce buyer interest, and make sales chains fall through at the last minute.

Why Removing Spray Foam is the Smart Choice

Whether you’re preparing to sell your home, apply for a mortgage, or carry out essential repairs, removing spray foam insulation is a wise investment.

Here’s what removal can offer you:

✅ Ensure Mortgage Eligibility

Once spray foam is professionally removed your property becomes more attractive to mortgage lenders, buyers, and insurers.

✅ Protect Your Roof Structure

Removing foam allows your timber to breathe naturally, reducing the risk of condensation and structural rot.

✅ Improve Roof Ventilation

A foam-free roof space allows for proper airflow, helping prevent damp and prolonging the lifespan of your roof.

✅ Increase Property Value

Homes without spray foam attract more buyers, are easier to sell, and typically maintain a higher value.

✅ Clear Roof Access for Repairs

Once the foam is gone, your roof can be properly inspected, repaired, and maintained — without obstruction.

Our Spray Foam Removal Process

We begin with a no-obligation survey to assess the type of foam, how it was installed, and any hidden damage.

Using specialist tools and techniques, we carefully remove the spray foam by hand. This helps protect the underlying roof structure as much as possible.

Once the foam is removed, we inspect your roof for any signs of rot, damp, or structural damage and offer recommendations.

We leave your loft clean and tidy. We can also advise on breathable, mortgage-approved insulation alternatives.
