When Do You Need a Spray Foam Removal Expert?
Spray foam insulation, while initially effective for sealing, can lead to significant headaches for homeowners. Issues often arise from improper application or the foam hiding structural damage. You should contact CJ Roofing Solutions if:
You are struggling to sell your home
Properties with spray foam insulation can be red flags for potential buyers. We specialize in professional removal, ensuring your property meets market standards and passes surveyor inspections.
Spray foam is affecting your mortgage or equity release
Many lenders will decline mortgage applications for properties with spray foam due to the risk of timber decay. If you are buying or selling, removing the foam is often the only way to secure the loan.
There is dampness in your roof
Spray foam can trap moisture against roof timbers, leading to condensation and rot. Our removal services eliminate this moisture trap, restoring proper ventilation and protecting your property’s structure.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Types of Spray Foam
1.
Closed-Cell Spray Foam
This high-density foam is rigid and impermeable. While it acts as a moisture barrier, it also blocks airflow entirely. Removing it is difficult because it sets hard and penetrates crevices behind timbers.
2.
Open-Cell Spray Foam
This foam is more flexible and allows for some breathability and expansion. However, many lenders still view it with caution, and it can still hide underlying roof issues.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where is Spray Polyurethane Foam (SPF) usually applied?
SPF is often applied to sloping roofs, sometimes as a “quick fix” for roofs in poor condition. While originally supported by schemes like the Green Homes Grant, it has become a major issue for surveyors who may value a property at £0 until the foam is removed.
Should I use Spray Foam on an older building?
No. Spray foam should never be used on older buildings, especially those with stone flags, slate, or handmade clay tiles. It prevents the reuse of these materials during re-roofing and traps moisture. There is no substitute for a proper roof repair by a contractor like CJ Roofing Solutions.
Is Spray Foam removal expensive?
Removal is a labor-intensive process, as the foam must be carefully cleared from timbers without causing damage. However, compared to the loss of property value or a failed home sale, professional removal is a vital investment. Contact us for a Free Survey and Quote to get an exact price.
