What are the reasons for spray foam insulation causing problems?

πŸ” Blocks Essential Ventilation

Spray foam can be packed so tightly that it prevents your roof from breathing, this can lead to trapped moisture resulting in damp, mould and timber rot.

πŸ”Ž Conceals Roof Structure

When having an inspection taking place this can be hindered as spray foam covers rafters and felt making an inspection very difficult. This can result in red flags during surveys and mortgage valuations.

🏠 Mortgage & Re-mortgage Problems

Mortgage providers will often decline mortgages due to spray foam insulation, this is of particular note when it covers felt and the underside of the roof tiles. Lenders will make the provision that only when spray foam insulation is fully removed will they lend against the property.

❌ Risks of Roof Timber Damage

Minor leaks or condensation can result in water getting in – spray foam can hide any damage and as a result of late detection extensive repairs are required as the structure of roof has been impaired.

πŸ’Έ Reduces Property Value

Significantly spray foam insulation can impact on the sale value of your home, reduce buyer interest and then sales chains fall though.

Benefits of Removing Spray Foam

When selling your home or considering applying for a mortgage or undertaking repairs the removal of spray foam will be a positive step and an investment.

What are the benefits?

βœ… Ensure Mortgage Eligibility

To make your home more appealing to buyers, mortgage lenders and insurers then employing a professional spray foam removal company will encourage positive interest.

βœ… Protect Your Roof Structure

A roof needs to breathe so damp or condensation is prevented from affecting the structural integrity of the roof, to ensure this then spray foam has to be removed.

βœ… Improve Roof Ventilation

Roofs should have a free flow of air, spray foam prevents this, when removed it lessens the risk of damp and ensures that the lifespan of the roof is prolonged.

βœ… Increase Property Value

Homes without spray foam are more likely to be valued higher and will sell more easily.

βœ… Clear Roof Access for Repairs

Spray foam if not removed hinders proper inspections from completing surveys for mortgage valuations so removal means complete access for inspections, repairs and maintenance.
