If you are trying to sell a house in West Bridgford, Beeston, or Arnold, you may have already encountered a Zero Valuation. UK mortgage providers now view spray foam as a high risk defect for several key reasons:
We use a methodology designed to pass the most stringent RICS Category 3 inspections. We do not use aggressive scrapers that gouge the wood; we use precision technology.
We identify whether you have Open Cell (spongy and breathable) or Closed Cell (rigid and dense) foam. Each requires a different approach, from mechanical cutting to specialist vacuum extraction.
For rigid closed cell foam, we utilise Dry Ice Blasting. This non abrasive process uses CO2 pellets to thermal shock the foam, causing it to shrink and lift cleanly away from the timber. It is the only way to achieve a surveyor ready finish without damaging the original rafters.
Once the foam is gone, we restore the natural breathability of your roof. We handle all hazardous waste disposal and ensure the loft is vacuumed spotless, leaving your timbers visible and ready for certification.
Watch Dean and the team perform a complete RICS Category 3 Remediation on a local East Midlands property, including mechanical extraction and full roof replacement to satisfy UK lender standards.

RICS surveyors in Nottingham flag spray foam as a Category 3 defect because the material encapsulates the roof structure. This prevents a mandatory visual inspection of the timber rafters for damp, rot, or infestation.Because the surveyor cannot guarantee the structural integrity of the roof, major lenders including HSBC, TSB, and Nationwide will often refuse to lend until a professional remediation is completed and the timbers are visible
Most Nottinghamshire projects, from West Bridgford to Mansfield, are completed within two to four days. Our team works efficiently to meet your specific property transaction or remortgage deadlines. If the project requires a full structural recovery (removing tiles to extract foam bonded to the felt), we will provide a detailed timeline during your free site survey to ensure minimal disruption.
No. We utilise specialised mechanical extraction and Dry Ice Blasting techniques specifically designed to protect the structural integrity of your roof. Unlike aggressive hand-scraping, our CO2 pellet technology “shocks” the foam, causing it to lift cleanly away without gouging the wood. We leave your rafters in a “surveyor-ready” state, fully compliant with BS 5250:2021 standards for moisture management.
Because spray foam can trap moisture, it is possible for underlying timber decay to exist. As expert roofing contractors, Dean and the team do not just walk away; we are qualified to perform timber repairs and structural recovery. We will document any issues found and provide a clear plan to restore your roof to a mortgageable condition.
No. Partial removal is a significant risk. Lenders and RICS surveyors require 100 per cent visibility of the roof timbers. If even a small amount of residue remains on the wood or in the eaves, it can lead to a secondary rejection. Our service ensures a total extraction that satisfies the strict disclosure requirements of UK Finance
