Spray Foam Insulation Removal Across East Sussex

Previously marketed as the modern way to insulate your roofs, Spray Foam insulation is now causing homeowners unexpected costs and stress as it has become an issue when selling property or attempting to re-mortgage.

Listed below are some of the reasons for spray foam causing issues:

πŸ” Blocks Essential Ventilation

Trapped moisture causing damp, mould and timber rot – this is because the spray foam is packed too tightly preventing your roof from breathing.

πŸ”Ž Conceals Roof Structure

Mortgage valuations require roof inspections from surveyors but spray foam covers the felt and rafters making inspections difficult which raises red flags during surveys and mortgage valuations.

🏠 Mortgage & Re-mortgage Problems

A high percentage of mortgage lenders will refuse mortgages with spray foam insulation – this more so when it is applied to the underside of roof tiles or felt. Some lenders will only lend against the property on the condition that the spray foam insulation is completely removed.

❌ Risks of Roof Timber Damage

The detection of water which may be caused by condensation or minor leak, spray foam can hide the damage and this means the roof structure is at risk leading to expensive repairs.

πŸ’Έ Reduces Property Value

Spray foam can also reduce the value of your home when selling, buyers may show little or no interest, and sales chains may fall through at the last minute.

Positive Reasons for Removing Spray Foam

Why removing Spray Foam when completed by a professional company is a positive action especially if you need to make repairs, sell your home or apply for a mortgage.

Here are some reasons why homeowners benefit from this decision:

βœ… Ensure Mortgage Eligibility

Buyers, mortgage lenders and insurance companies will be more interested when spray foam is removed by professionals so a sale is more likely to proceed without hindrance.

βœ… Protect Your Roof Structure

Spray foam when not removed prevents a roof to breathe – when removed however this can take place so damp or condensation does not affect the structural integrity of the roof.

βœ… Improve Roof Ventilation

Proper airflow (when spray foam is removed) preserves the lifespan of your roof as the risk of damp is significantly decreased so the lifespan of the roof is prolonged.

βœ… Increase Property Value

The market value of homes without spray foam is generally higher so a sale is more likely.

βœ… Clear Roof Access for Repairs

Spray foam when removed allows for surveyors to complete inspections correctly and also facilitates easier repairs and maintenance.

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.
