Spray Foam Removal across Twickenham and West London

Spray foam removal means taking open or closed cell foam back off the underside of the tiles or felt and the rafters. Foam traps moisture in the roof space and makes the timbers impossible to inspect, and lenders have taken a hard line on it, so a house with foam in the loft can be difficult to remortgage or sell even when the roof itself is sound.

Getting the foam out again makes the roof mortgageable, lets the timbers be seen and inspected, and lets the roof space breathe as it was meant to. In most cases it removes the single thing most likely to hold up a sale or a remortgage.

We scrape the foam off the timbers and the felt, clear out the debris, then deal with whatever it was hiding, which is often a felt layer that has been torn or contaminated and needs replacing. You get a written record of the condition of the roof space afterwards, so you have something to show a surveyor or a buyer.

We work across Twickenham and the TW1 postcodes in West London, including Richmond, St Margarets, Teddington, Hampton and Isleworth. Ring 020 7971 7302 and you will get someone who knows the area.

FAQs

Spray Foam Removal in Twickenham: what people ask

Do you cover Twickenham?

Yes. Spray Foam Removal across Twickenham and the surrounding TW1 area, including Richmond, St Margarets, Teddington, Hampton and Isleworth. The local number is 020 7971 7302, answered 7am to 7pm, seven days a week.

Why do lenders object to spray foam?

It stops the roof timbers being inspected and it can trap moisture against them. A surveyor who cannot see the rafters cannot sign them off, and lenders have become unwilling to take that risk.

Can all of it be removed?

The great majority, yes. Closed cell foam bonds hard and some staining or residue can remain on the timber, but the aim is a roof space that a surveyor can inspect. If we think a section cannot be brought back we will say so before starting.

Will the roof need replacing afterwards?

Not usually. What often does need replacing is the felt or membrane the foam was sprayed onto, because removal tears it. The quote flags that as a likely follow-on rather than presenting it as a surprise.
