Spray foam holding up your sale or remortgage? We professionally remove, remediate and document your loft—creating a clear record that surveyors and lenders can review.
Thousands of UK homeowners are discovering that spray foam loft insulation, once marketed as a miracle solution, is now causing serious issues with property sales, mortgages, and structural integrity.
Spray foam can lead to additional questions during a sale or remortgage. Lender policies vary: some may decline an application, while others may ask for installation records, an independent report, further inspection or remedial work before making a decision.
A surveyor may record spray foam because it can restrict inspection of the roof structure. Their advice will depend on the type of installation, available documentation and visible condition; full removal is not the automatic answer in every property.
Spray foam prevents natural ventilation in your loft space. Without adequate airflow, moisture becomes trapped against roof timbers, leading to condensation, timber rot, and potential structural damage that worsens over time.
Spray foam conceals the condition of your roof tiles, battens, and membrane. Surveyors cannot properly inspect the roof structure, meaning leaks and damage go undetected until they become serious and costly problems.
