He was very knowledgeable in the field, and walked us through the solutions we need to take. Our treatment was carried out by Craig, who took special care of all household items, whilst carrying out the treatment. Craig made sure to explain the best methods of cleaning the treatment. Would highly recommend! Thank youPosted on Leah Warner-TedaldiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had Kai and Sam come to do isotherm insulation on our walls. They were great, really upbeat and friendly. They worked really hard and left the place so tidy. The work looks good so far! Review is done on the day of completion Update: we had a lot of trouble with this company in the end. The plastering work ended up needing to be redone. It took 6 weeks for it to be redone and we were left with a completely unusable room and really bad communication. There were so many times when I rang through to the switchboard and escalated matters for nothing to happen. We felt totally helpless and stranded. I have since tried to get through to their complaints team to no avail. We had the isotherm sheeting fixed which was then skimmed over the top. Once this had set you could quite easily push it in with your finger, denting it (see pic of finger dents). The company surveyor (who we asked to be sent round) said that this was expected and how the isotherm works (I would not recommend!) Luckily they sent a plasterer round to fix it, and he said the whole thing (isotherm and all) needed to be redone, and he redid it all. It now looks really good and doesn’t dent with your finger. TBH I wouldn’t recommend this company, I found them impossible to get in touch with and just gatekept at a switchboard and left us in a really vulnerable position and took 6 weeks to fix it.Posted on Monika NiebojTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Larry has arrived today with lots of helpful information, been very polite and understanding. Definitely recommended :)Posted on Amanda WilliamsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Why Spray Foam Needs to Be Removed
Spray foam insulation often causes issues that make removal necessary, particularly in loft spaces. Over time, it can affect both the structure of the property and its value. Mortgage lenders and surveyors frequently raise concerns, which can delay or prevent a sale.
Key reasons for spray foam removal include:
- Restricted airflow that encourages condensation
- Risk of rot in rafters and roof timbers
- Difficulty selling or remortgaging the property
- Problems inspecting the roof structure
Benefits of Spray Removal
Removing spray foam insulation from your loft brings clear benefits for both your property and peace of mind. Once the foam is taken away, the roof structure becomes fully visible, making it easier to spot issues early and avoid costly repairs.
Proper airflow is restored, helping to reduce condensation and lower the risk of damp or timber decay. Spray foam removal can also improve your chances of selling or remortgaging, as many lenders and surveyors raise concerns when foam is present. With a healthier roof space and improved ventilation, your home is better protected for the long term.
The Loft Spray Foam Removal Process
Our spray foam removal process is carefully planned to protect your loft and roof structure. We start with a detailed survey to assess the type of foam, how it was applied, and any underlying issues.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is loft spray foam insulation?
Loft spray foam insulation is applied directly to roof timbers or felt to reduce heat loss. Problems can occur when it limits airflow or hides the condition of the roof structure.
Why does spray foam need removing?
Removal is often required when spray foam causes condensation, traps moisture, or raises concerns during a survey. Many mortgage lenders ask for removal before lending.
Will spray foam removal improve ventilation?
Yes. Removing the foam allows natural airflow to return to the loft, helping to reduce condensation and protect roof timbers.
Can spray foam damage roof timbers?
Spray foam can hide early signs of rot or moisture damage. Over time, trapped moisture may affect the timber beneath.
Is spray foam removal messy or disruptive?
Professional removal is controlled and carefully managed. The loft area is protected, and waste is removed safely once work is complete.
How long does loft spray foam removal take?
Most projects are completed within a few days, depending on the size of the loft and the type of foam used.
Do mortgage lenders require spray foam removal?
Many lenders and surveyors request removal so the roof structure can be fully inspected before approving a mortgage or remortgage.
Do I need a survey before removal?
Yes. A full loft survey identifies the foam type, installation method, and any existing issues, allowing the safest removal approach to be used.
