What's included
What our same day spray foam removal includes
Every same-day job is priced as a complete package. You are not paying extra for sheeting, disposal or the completion note. Here is what is covered when we arrive.
Full foam extraction
We cut out and vacuum up all accessible open cell or closed cell foam from rafters, tiles and roof voids. If foam has spread onto pipework or wiring we cut around it carefully rather than through it.
Dust control and sheeting
Floors, stairwells and skirting are sheeted before cutting starts. A dust extraction unit runs at the loft hatch throughout, and every technician wears a PPE respirator because isocyanate dust is a real hazard.
Timber moisture check
A moisture meter and thermal imaging camera check every rafter we expose. We note any roof rot, damp or mould growth and tell you plainly whether the timber is sound or needs repair.
Licensed waste disposal
All foam, batts and debris are bagged and removed through licensed waste routes. You get a clean loft, not a pile of bags on the driveway waiting for a skip.
Completion photos and note
We photograph the cleared roof space and issue a written completion note the same day. Surveyors and mortgage lenders accept this format, which is often what unblocks a stalled sale.
Service overview
Same day Spray Foam Removal in London explained
Same day Spray Foam Removal in London is a controlled extraction service that strips failed polyurethane foam from rafters, tiles and cavity walls, then disposes of it legally, all within a single working day. We cut the foam back with oscillating multi-tools and reciprocating saws, pull it out with an industrial vacuum, and check the timber underneath with a moisture meter before we sign the job off. No half-measures, no foam left behind for a surveyor to find later.
London homeowners call us because spray foam has quietly wrecked a sale. Lenders flag Icynene or Lapolla foam in the roof space, valuers mark it as a defect, and the mortgage stalls. Add the city's damp winters and warm lofts and you get loft condensation, mould growth and structural timber damage within a few seasons. If you need spray foam removal today in London Greater, we can usually fit you in the same afternoon.
How we workWe verify the cause, compare realistic options, and confirm the repair before we leave.
The service timeline
How our same day spray foam removal works
The process flexes to the condition, but these checkpoints keep decisions clear.
Phone triage
You call 02080885347 and describe the foam. We ask whether it is open cell or closed cell, roughly how many square metres, and whether a lender or surveyor is involved. Two minutes on the phone tells us which tools and how many technicians to send.
Same-day arrival
Our van reaches you within the agreed window, usually two to four hours after the call. We sheet the access route, set up the dust extraction unit at the loft hatch and run a thermal imaging camera over the roof deck to map where the foam sits and where moisture has already crept in.
Cut and extract
Technicians cut the foam into manageable blocks with an oscillating multi-tool and a reciprocating saw, then pull it out with an industrial vacuum. A moisture meter checks every rafter we expose. A standard 40 square metre loft takes three to five hours to strip.
Timber check and treatment
Once the foam is gone we inspect for roof rot, damp and mould growth. Where timber is sound we apply a preservative treatment. Where it is not, we tell you straight away and quote the repair separately so there are no surprises later.
Clean-up and handover
We bag and remove every scrap of polyurethane foam, wipe down the loft, and hand you photos of the cleared rafters plus a written completion note for your lender or surveyor. The whole visit is done in a single day.
Tools & methods
Tools and methods we use
Purpose-built equipment, used by trained technicians, so the job is done accurately the first time.
Oscillating multi-tool
Cuts foam cleanly along rafters and around pipework without chewing into the timber. It is the first tool out of the van on most loft jobs.
Reciprocating saw
Used on dense closed cell foam where a multi-tool would labour. We control depth carefully so blades never touch the roof felt or tiles.
Industrial vacuum
Pulls loose foam crumbs and dust out of the roof space and into sealed bags. Running it alongside cutting keeps airborne dust to a minimum.
Dust extraction unit
Positioned at the loft hatch to capture fine isocyanate dust before it reaches the rest of the house. Essential on every internal job.
Thermal imaging camera
Maps where foam sits and where moisture has already crept into the roof deck. It shows us the full extent of the problem before we cut.
Moisture meter
Checks every exposed rafter for damp. Readings tell us whether the timber is sound or whether roof rot has already set in.
PPE respirator
Worn by every technician for the full strip. Spray foam dust contains isocyanate and is not something to breathe in, even briefly.
Use cases
When to book same day spray foam removal
These examples show how the service framework adapts rather than forcing every call through one repair.
Wandsworth semi freed from closed cell foam
A 1930s semi in Wandsworth had dense closed cell foam bonded hard to the rafters, with condensation dripping onto stored boxes. Two rafters were already showing early roof rot and the loft smelled of damp. → A full-day strip removed 52 square metres of closed cell foam. We treated the affected rafters, fitted a vapour barrier and left the roof space dry. The damp smell cleared within a week and the timber stopped deteriorating.
Barking warehouse roof cleared out of hours
A warehouse unit in Barking had thick polyurethane foam over a steel and timber roof deck. An insurance inspection was booked and the foam was flagged as a fire risk. Trading could not stop during the day. → We ran an evening crew and stripped 180 square metres of foam over two nights, bagging everything for licensed disposal. The completion note and photos were with the insurer before the inspection date.
Problems we solve
Problems our same day spray foam removal solves
Spray foam causes a handful of predictable problems in London homes. Here are the ones we get called about most, and what we do about them.
Mortgage refusal due to spray foam in the roof
We strip the foam, photograph the cleared rafters and issue a completion note the same day. That paperwork is usually enough for the lender to release the retention and let the sale complete.
Loft condensation and roof rot from trapped moisture
Our technicians open the roof space up, dry the timbers and fit a vapour barrier so the loft can breathe. We check every rafter with a moisture meter before we leave.
Damp and mould growth spreading into rooms
Removing the foam stops the source. We clear the foam, treat affected timber and leave the roof space dry and ventilated so mould does not return.
Difficulty selling property or reduced property value
A same-day strip with proper paperwork removes the objection entirely. Sellers get a clean survey, buyers get certainty, and the property goes back to market at full value.
Pricing process
What same day spray foam removal costs
350 - 1,400 pounds depending on foam type, area and access
Foam type
Open cell foam is softer and comes out faster, so it sits at the lower end of the range. Closed cell foam is dense and bonded hard to timber, which adds hours of cutting and pushes the price up.
Area in square metres
A 20 square metre loft is a half-day job. A 60 square metre roof deck can take a full day with two technicians. We measure on the phone using your rough dimensions and confirm on site.
Access and loft hatch size
Narrow hatches in Victorian terraces mean breaking foam into smaller blocks and using slim-line kit. That adds time. Wide, clear access keeps the job quick and the price down.
Can I get same day spray foam removal in London?
Yes, in most cases. Call 02080885347 before 11am and we can usually have a crew at your property the same afternoon. Same day spray foam removal in London depends on foam type, loft access and how many jobs are already booked, so we confirm the slot on the phone rather than promising blindly.
How quickly can you do emergency spray foam removal in London Greater?
Our fastest emergency response is two to four hours from your call. That covers most London postcodes inside the M25. If a lender has set a deadline or a surveyor is due, tell us on the phone and we will prioritise the job. Evening and weekend slots are available at no extra charge.
Do you offer 24/7 same day spray foam extraction in London?
We run a 24/7 phone line and book same-day extraction seven days a week. Overnight work is possible where access allows and the property is safe to work in. For most lofts, a daytime slot is quicker and cheaper because we can see the foam and check the timber properly in daylight.
How much does same day spray foam removal cost in London?
Typical 2026 pricing in London runs from 350 pounds for a small loft to around 1,400 pounds for a large or heavily foamed roof space. Closed cell foam and poor access push the price up. You get a fixed quote before we start, and disposal and sheeting are included.
