Why people remove spray foam
Spray foam stuck to the underside of a roof can trap moisture against the rafters, battens and felt, and it hides their condition. Many surveyors and mortgage lenders are now cautious about it, so homeowners often find it causes problems when they come to sell or remortgage.

What we find underneath
Once the foam is off, we can see the roof timbers and felt properly for the first time. Sometimes they're in good condition. Sometimes there's damp, rot or damaged felt that the foam was covering. Either way, you get a clear picture of the roof's real condition.

What happens after removal
If the timbers and felt are sound, the loft can be insulated in a breathable way, usually at ceiling level. If we find damage, we'll explain the repair needed, whether that's replacing some battens and felt or more. Nothing goes ahead without a quote you've agreed.
What to expect from spray foam insulation removal
We first inspect the loft to see what type of foam has been used, how much there is and how easy it is to reach. You then get a free quote for the removal. If a survey or lender has asked for evidence of removal, tell us, and we'll photograph the work as we go.
On the day, we protect the loft hatch and the rooms below, then remove the foam by hand from between the rafters. The waste is bagged and taken away. Once the timbers and felt are clear, we inspect them and talk you through what we found and any repairs needed.

Spray foam insulation removal questions
Will spray foam stop me selling my house in Burgess Hill?
It can make a sale harder. Some mortgage lenders won't lend on homes with spray foam, or want more information before they do, and surveyors often flag it. Removing it and having the roof checked can help clear the issue. Speak to your lender or surveyor about what they need.
How long does spray foam removal take?
It depends on how much foam there is, the type of foam and how easy the loft is to work in. Removal in a typical loft usually takes a few days. We'll give you a timescale with your quote once we've seen the loft and how much foam needs to come off.
Is removing spray foam messy inside the house?
The work happens in the loft, but it creates dust and debris. We protect the loft hatch, landing and any rooms below, and bag the waste as we go so it isn't carried through the house loose. We clean up the work area before we leave each day.
What if the roof timbers are damaged under the foam?
We'll show you what we've found and explain what needs repairing. That may be a few battens and some felt, or more if damp has been trapped for years. You'll get a separate quote for the repair, and we won't start any extra work without your agreement.
