Evesham
Spray foam, loft insulation and damp in Evesham homes
Evesham sits in a loop of the River Avon, at the heart of the Vale of Evesham's market gardens and orchards. The town grew up around its great abbey, of which the bell tower still stands, and the centre around the Market Place and Bridge Street mixes timber-framed buildings, Georgian brick fronts and Victorian shops. The historic core is a conservation area with many listed buildings.
The river brings flood risk. Evesham was badly hit in 2007, and low-lying streets and riverside homes in the town and in Bengeworth across the bridge have flooded more than once. Brick and timber-framed walls that have been under water can take months to dry, and the salts left behind keep pulling damp back into plaster.
Away from the river, Evesham has Victorian and Edwardian terraces, plenty of interwar and post-war housing in Bengeworth and Hampton, and large newer estates on the edges of town. These are the homes where a loft insulation top-up and raised boarding usually make the biggest difference to comfort and bills.
Spray foam is something we see in homes of every age. It covers the roof timbers and can trap moisture against them. Many lenders and surveyors are cautious about spray foam, which matters when you sell or remortgage. We remove it by hand, clean the timbers back and refit breathable Knauf mineral wool to 300mm.

Questions we get in Evesham
Do you cover all of Evesham?
Yes. We cover Evesham across WR11, including the town centre, Bengeworth and Hampton, the newer estates on the edge of town and villages across the Vale such as Badsey, Offenham and Broadway. Surveys for spray foam removal and loft insulation are free, and you get a written price first.
Can you help with damp after flooding in Evesham?
Yes. Walls that have been under water can stay wet for months, and salts left in the plaster keep drawing moisture back. We check how wet the walls are, look for any ongoing source and recommend the right fix. Damp proofing we carry out comes with a 25-year insurance-backed guarantee.
Can you insulate a timber-framed house in Evesham town centre?
Usually, yes. Loft insulation goes inside the roof and does not change how the house looks. Many central buildings are listed, so check with Wychavon District Council about consent first. We use breathable mineral wool that suits old timber frames and lime plaster, and flag anything we spot.
Is spray foam a problem in my Evesham home?
It can be. Foam stuck to the underside of the roof hides the timbers and can trap moisture against them. Many lenders and surveyors are cautious about spray foam, so it often comes up when people sell or remortgage. We remove it by hand and give you a Certificate of Removal and a 10-year guarantee.
How much loft insulation should an Evesham home have?
Current guidance is around 270mm. Many lofts in Bengeworth, Hampton and older parts of town have far less, or insulation squashed flat by boards. We lay Knauf mineral wool to 300mm and fit raised boarding so you keep your storage space. Insulation work carries a 10-year guarantee.
What happens at a free survey in Evesham?
We check the loft, roof timbers, ventilation, any spray foam and any damp walls, take photos and explain what we find in plain English. You then get a written price with no obligation. If nothing needs doing, we will tell you. Surveys for spray foam removal and loft insulation are free.
