Spray foam removal for Fakenham homeowners
Spray foam insulation was widely promoted across Norfolk and the East of England during the 2000s and 2010s as a quick fix for draughty loft spaces. For many homeowners in Fakenham and the surrounding north Norfolk market towns, it has turned out to be anything but quick to deal with. Mortgage lenders and surveyors now routinely flag spray foam as a concern, and in many cases a straightforward sale or remortgage is refused until the foam is professionally removed.
We are based in Dersingham on the West Norfolk coast, and we cover Fakenham and the wider north and mid-Norfolk area as part of our regular work. If your surveyor's report has come back with a spray foam warning, give us a call. We will come out, inspect the roof space honestly, and give you a free written quote with no pressure to proceed.
Can spray foam actually be removed?
Yes, in almost every case. The process depends on the type of foam that was installed. Open-cell foam is softer and more straightforward to extract. Closed-cell foam is denser and bonds more firmly to the timbers, so it takes more careful, methodical work. Our team carries out hand extraction throughout, which means no power tools grinding across your roof timbers. The goal is to remove the foam cleanly without damaging the rafters underneath, so your roof structure stays sound and any subsequent inspection gives a clean bill of health.
Once the foam is out, we clear the residue, check the condition of the timbers, and restore proper cross-ventilation to the roof space. That ventilation is what lenders want to see confirmed before they will proceed with a mortgage offer.
What spray foam removal work we carry out in Fakenham
- Open-cell foam extraction: careful hand removal of softer foam from rafters, ridge boards and felt, with full clearance of loose residue.
- Closed-cell foam removal: methodical extraction of dense bonded foam without cutting into or scoring the structural timbers.
- Timber inspection: once the foam is out, we assess the condition of your rafters and report on any areas that need attention.
- Ventilation restoration: we check eaves and ridge ventilation pathways are clear and working correctly, which is the key concern for surveyors and lenders.
- Post-removal documentation: we can provide written confirmation of the work carried out, which you can pass directly to your solicitor, surveyor or mortgage lender.
- Advice on next steps: if your existing roofing felt or insulation needs replacing after extraction, we will let you know honestly and quote for that separately if required.
Local roofs in Fakenham and north-west Norfolk
Fakenham sits in the Wensum valley and serves as a market town for a wide stretch of mid and north-west Norfolk. The housing stock is a mix of period brick terraces and Victorian cottages in the town centre, post-war council and private housing across the wider streets, and newer estates on the edges. Spray foam was installed across all of these property types, and the problems it causes are not limited to older homes. We also regularly work in the villages around Fakenham, including Holt, Dereham, North Creake and Great Ryburgh, so if you are nearby and have the same issue, the same team covers you. Our work across Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex and across the East of England means we have seen almost every variation of foam install, and we know how to approach each one efficiently.
How much does spray foam removal cost?
The cost depends on the size of the roof space, the type of foam installed, and how thoroughly it has bonded to the timbers. We are not able to give a meaningful figure without seeing the property, which is why we offer a free inspection and written quote before any work is agreed. There are no call-out charges and no obligation to book once you have the quote in hand. We would rather you make an informed decision than feel pressured into anything.
As a third-generation, family-run business, fully insured and working across Norfolk and the East of England, our reputation matters to us more than a quick sale. We will always tell you honestly what we find and what we recommend. To get started, find out more about our spray foam removal service or call us directly to arrange a free visit.

Bryann Ward
50+years moss accumulation on the roof was causing us concern. Difficult to find local firm that did not use pressure washing to clean so when a R.Mail leaflet drop came through the door, decided to contact Prestige. Their response was quick and a quote was soon provided to clear the moss by hand which we accepted. an early date was agreed. Unfortunately this uncovered more serious damage to the underlying structure (as shown by photos) and a revised quote provided to completely re-tile. We agreed a new price and within a week the work started. The team of 4 worked hard completing the re-roof in 2 days, keeping us informed of progress, and leaving the area in a clean and tidy state. As well as a guarantee we were given a report on what was done, supported by photos. Overall a very professional approach.

I recently had work carried out by Prestige Roof, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. As a young homeowner, I was understandably cautious about who I chose, but from the very first interaction, the team put me completely at ease. Luke, the director, took the time to come out personally and explain everything to me in a clear and thorough manner. He was extremely professional, patient, and well-mannered throughout, ensuring I fully understood the process and even encouraging me to take time to review the quotation with my family before making any decisions. This level of honesty and transparency was very reassuring. The work itself was completed to an exceptional standard. The team on site were punctual, respectful, and genuinely lovely to deal with. It was clear they took pride in their work, and the finished result truly reflects that. The completed project has transformed the appearance of my property, and I am extremely pleased with the outcome. The aftercare provided was equally impressive. Any questions I had were handled promptly and professionally, and the office staff were always friendly, helpful, and efficient in their communication. Overall, my experience with Prestige Roof has been outstanding from start to finish. Their professionalism, quality of workmanship, and excellent customer service make them a company I would confidently recommend to anyone.

We discovered a small leak in the kitchen ceiling of our home in Snettisham. Prestige Roof came out and fixed the problem quickly. A small job but one they were happy to do. Great service from a local company.

We received a flyer through our door at the start of the month and decided to get in touch. Although it was only a small job, it’s definitely worth leaving a review ! Prestige responded quickly, came out the next day, and provided a quote on the same day . Work started the following week and lasted three days. They carried out a full roof clean, as well as cleaning the fascia and gutters. As an added bonus, they also jet-washed our driveway at no extra cost, which was a really nice touch. A big thank you to the team at Prestige, and especially to Luke for the excellent service. Highly recommended.
