Spray Foam Insulation Removal Across Leicestershire

Spray Foam Insulation Removal Across Leicestershire

Spray Foam Insulation was considered a cost effective and practical roof insulation during a time when it was a popular modern trend. Regrettably this now causes stress and unexpected costs for a high percentage of homeowners trying to sell or remortgage their homes.

What are some of the reasons for this change?

πŸ” Blocks Essential Ventilation

A roof should be able to breathe – but Spray Foam was often tightly packed thus preventing the roof from doing so – this meant that trapped moisture accumulated which can cause mould, damp and timber rot.

πŸ”Ž Conceals Roof Structure

When selling, surveyors conduct inspections but with spray foam covering rafters and felt the inspection cannot be properly completed. Red flags are then raised for Mortgage Valuations.

🏠 Mortgage & Re-mortgage Problems

Spray foam Insulation will also mean Lenders will refuse to lend against this type of property as spray foam covers the underside of the roof tiles and felt so lenders will insist on the complete removal of the spray foam.

❌ Risks of Roof Timber Damage

The structure of the roof may have been undermined due to water getting in ( from either condensation or minor leak ) but the damage is hidden so when finally detected expensive repairs may be the result.

πŸ’Έ Reduces Property Value

Property value decreases due to the installation of spray foam. Buyers are deterred from viewing this type of property so a sale may take considerably more time. Sales chains can also be affected with sales falling through at the last minute.

Why Remove Spray Foam – is it the right choice?

Here are some of the benefits from removing spray foam – especially when selling your home, applying for a mortgage or repairs required.

βœ… Ensure Mortgage Eligibility

Buyers, mortgage lenders and insurance companies will be inclined to view a property with more interest.

βœ… Protect Your Roof Structure

A roof needs the capacity to breathe which prevents condensation and damp from causing damage.

βœ… Improve Roof Ventilation

Roofs also need airflow to preserve the longevity of the roof and spray foam removal facilitates this.

βœ… Increase Property Value

Ensuring your house maintains its marketable value and appeal to buyers.

βœ… Clear Roof Access for Repairs

Removal of spray foam will allow surveyors to complete their inspections correctly and completely.

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.
