Spray Foam Removal for Landlords & Social Housing
Loft spray foam removal for housing associations, landlords and councils across the UK. Supporting surveyors, asset teams and planned works with safe removal and roof inspection access in housing stock.
Many housing providers are now facing issues linked to loft spray foam insulation installed under previous energy efficiency and retrofit schemes. Spray foam can restrict roof inspections, delay planned works, create condensation concerns, and make it difficult for surveyors and asset teams to properly assess roof structures causing roof inspection issues.
We support landlords, housing associations, councils, and property teams with specialist spray foam removal and loft remediation services across occupied and void housing stock.
We work with:
Housing Associations
Landlords
Local Authorities & Councils
ALMOs
Stock Transfer Landlords
Retrofit & Decarbonisation Teams
Planned Works & Asset Management Teams
Supporting Asset, Surveying & Retrofit Teams Across Social Housing

Mortgageability concerns
Surveyor red flags
