Why Spray Foam Insulation Needs Removing

Spray foam insulation — especially closed-cell types — is now frequently flagged by lenders and surveyors. Poor installation, moisture issues, and hidden timber damage mean that many properties with spray foam insulation are declined for mortgages or face delays in sale completion.

Spray foam insulation removal is becoming increasingly necessary for UK homeowners looking to sell or remortgage their properties. Many mortgage lenders and surveyors now flag spray foam, particularly closed-cell insulation, as a structural risk, making it harder to secure financing.
