🏡 Why Should Spray Foam Insulation Be Safely Removed from Roofs in the UK?
To Restore Your Property’s Value and Marketability!
Spray foam insulation, particularly closed-cell foam applied directly to the underside of roof tiles, has been widely used in UK homes.
But it’s now become a red flag for surveyors, mortgage lenders, and potential buyers.
Here’s why it needs to be safely & professionally removed:
⚠️ 1. Mortgage and Lending Issues
Most UK mortgage lenders refuse to lend on properties with spray foam insulation unless it’s professionally assessed or removed.
Why? Because spray foam can: Conceal structural roof issues. Trap moisture and cause unseen timber rot. Make roof inspections impossible
✅ Removal = mortgage eligibility restored.

🧰 2. Hidden Structural Damage
Spray foam seals gaps tightly — too tightly.
This can block ventilation, trap condensation, and lead to:
Timber decay
Mould growth
Reduced structural integrity
🔍 Many issues aren’t visible until the foam is gone.

📉 3. Reduced Property Value
Homes with spray foam often face: Lower valuations. Longer time on market. Fewer buyers (especially first-time or mortgaged buyers).
Removing the foam helps unlock full market value again.
🌿 4. Incompatible with Modern Building Standards
Modern roofing standards now favour breathable, vented systems. Spray foam (especially older installations) often doesn’t comply, making renovations or upgrades difficult.
✅ 5. Insurance & Legal Headaches
Spray foam can invalidate insurance policies or create disputes during the sale process.
Removing it protects the homeowner, the buyer, and makes conveyancing smoother.

Our Story: Why We Chose a Different Path
Envirosmart began with a simple goal. To offer high-quality, honest insulation solutions that genuinely benefit homeowners and property managers.
Back in 2019, our founder, Craig Maxwell, trained and became an approved Icynene spray foam installer.
At the time, spray foam insulation was being heavily marketed as the future of energy efficiency — and on paper, it looked like a great solution.
But once we started Envirosmart and began applying spray foam in real-world settings, the truth became harder to ignore.
We saw firsthand how spray foam could cause more problems than it solved in domestic properties — from trapped moisture and compromised ventilation, to roof damage and mortgage refusals. It didn’t sit right with us.
That’s when we made a decision that many others in the industry didn’t
👉 We stopped offering spray foam insulation in homes.
Even though it meant walking away from a growing market,we knew it wasn’t the right thing to do for our customers.
Instead, we focused on insulation systems we could stand behind — solutions that worked safely, efficiently, and without hidden consequences.
We do still install spray foam where it makes sense — such as in commercial steel buildings, where the risks aren’t the same.
But we’ve never looked back when it comes to protecting domestic homeowners from something that could compromise their property value or structural integrity.
And now, we’re often contacted 💬 “Can you remove spray foam from our loft?”

What our clients say about us
Initially we contracted Craig and his team to provide insulation for two attic rooms which are either freezing, or far too hot. And they ended up fitting a new kitchen too.
We can't recommend this firm highly enough, especially for helping us through the unexpected discovery of damp.
Communication and customer service were excellent; friendly, and helpful. The installers were punctual, hardworking and cleaned up thoroughly.
Highly recommend!
