Spray foam removal in Broomhill done right, first time

Damp patches on upstairs walls or ceilings

Foam blocks the ventilation your roof needs, so moisture condenses on cold timbers and works its way through the plaster. In Broomhill terraces this often shows up first on an internal wall near the chimney breast. It will not dry out on its own while the foam is still there.

A surveyor or lender has flagged the foam

Mortgage refusal due to spray foam is the single biggest reason people call us in Broomhill. Lenders treat foam in a roof void as a risk because it hides the timbers. Once it is flagged, the sale usually stalls until the foam is removed and documented.

Foam is shrinking away from the rafters

Spray foam shrinkage leaves gaps where air and moisture collect. You may notice it as a gap along the edge of a rafter or foam that crumbles when touched. It means the foam has failed as insulation and is now trapping damp instead of keeping it out.

Condensation on roof timbers or felt

If you can see beads of water on the underside of the roof felt or on the rafters, the roof void is not breathing. Foam is the usual culprit in Broomhill because it seals the eaves. Left alone, wet timbers lead to rot and a much bigger repair bill.

You cannot sell or remortgage the property

Difficulty selling a home with spray foam is common across S10 and S6. Buyers cannot get a mortgage, so the chain stalls. Removing the foam and providing a clear report is usually the fastest way to get a sale or remortgage moving again.
