Why spray foam is causing problems for homeowners in Dersingham
Over the past few years, mortgage lenders and surveyors across West Norfolk have become increasingly cautious about spray foam insulation in roof spaces. If foam was installed in your Dersingham home, perhaps through a government-backed scheme or by a private contractor, there is a good chance your lender has raised a red flag. Many buyers find their mortgage offer withdrawn or their remortgage refused until the foam is fully removed and the roof timbers can be inspected again.
The good news is that spray foam can be removed. It is not a quick job and it takes the right approach, but it is absolutely something our team carries out regularly across Dersingham and the surrounding area. Because our head office and showroom are based right here in Dersingham, we are on your doorstep and can usually arrange an inspection without a long wait.
What spray foam removal actually involves
There are two main types of spray foam: open-cell and closed-cell. Open-cell foam is softer and spongy; closed-cell is harder and more rigid. Both can cause issues with condensation, timber inspection and mortgage valuations, and both need careful, manual extraction.
We never use power tools or harsh methods that could damage the rafters, joists or sarking beneath the foam. Our team works by hand, methodically removing the material and clearing the roof space so your timbers are fully visible and air can circulate freely again. Once the foam is out, we carry out a thorough inspection of the roof structure underneath and provide you with a written report that you can share with your lender or surveyor.
- Open-cell foam removal: Softer material extracted by hand, taking care not to disturb any insulation or fixings that should remain.
- Closed-cell foam removal: Harder, more adhesive material requiring patient, careful work to avoid marking timbers.
- Ventilation restoration: We make sure eaves and ridge ventilation are clear and unobstructed once the foam is gone.
- Written inspection report: Provided after every job, summarising the condition of the roof timbers and confirming foam has been fully removed.
- No power tools on timbers: Our approach protects the structural integrity of your roof space throughout the process.
How long does spray foam removal take and what does it cost?
Every roof space is different, so there is no single answer that fits every home. The time needed depends on the size of your loft, the type of foam that was used, how thickly it was applied and how accessible the roof space is. A standard semi-detached or detached home in Dersingham typically takes anywhere from a day to two days for the removal itself.

Fast and efficient service, this must have been a one off? from quote to completion, including scaffolding 3 days. Inspection and quote on Wednesday, scaffold arrived Thursday and job started and finished on Friday. This was for new roof membrane, new battens cleaned and replaced tiles, as well as a complete new flat roof rubber covering and lagged loft as well for good measure. Left early Friday evening and apart from the skip of rubbish I would not have know they had been, all clean and tidy as promised. A big thank you to James and his crew for an excellent job.

I recently suffered from a leak in my bedroom and was really worried about the condition of my roof. I contacted Prestige Roof Ltd to carry out a full roof MOT on my property, and I’m so glad I did. From the moment I got in touch with them, the whole experience was professional and reassuring. The team came out promptly and carried out a very thorough inspection of the roof. They took the time to clearly explain what they were looking at and showed me the areas that had deteriorated. They also explained what a damaged or failing roof looks like, which really helped me understand the problem rather than just being told I needed repairs. After the inspection, they provided me with a fully detailed report along with a clear quotation, which was very helpful and transparent. The office staff were absolutely lovely to deal with—friendly, helpful, and quick to respond to any questions I had. The workers who attended the property were fantastic as well. They were polite, respectful, and worked very professionally throughout the visit. Luke, the owner of Prestige Roof Ltd, clearly knows his trade. He took the time to talk everything through with me and made sure I understood what needed to be done. He was very kind, honest, and genuinely made me feel like he cared about helping me solve the problem rather than just doing a job. Overall, I had a brilliant experience with Prestige Roof Ltd. The service was professional, honest, and very thorough from start to finish. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs roofing advice, an inspection, or repairs. It’s not easy finding trustworthy tradespeople these days, but this company really stands out.

Prestige Roof offered to come and repair a couple of slipped tiles on my mother's roof for free, whenever they were in the area. The two young chaps who came the next day were on time, very polite, knowledgeable and offered some very helpful advice.

We were very pleased with the work carried out by Prestige Roof Limited on our property In March 2026. They removed the old spray foam roof insulation, repairing timbers that had been damaged by it, retiling where needed and replacing the roof membrane and ridge tiles. They carried out this work in the time frame that they said they would. The crew was courteous and kept us informed of progress with numerous photos of the roof work, they also cleared up after themselves. We thoroughly recommend Prestige and would use them again ourselves. Trevor and Linda Scott, Holme-next-the-sea. Norfolk.
