Spray foam removal in Coventry: 35m² of Open Cell Spray Foam Removed in One Day
In June 2026, EcoTrust Roofing & Insulation Ltd removed 35m² of open cell spray foam from the underside of the roof in a loft in Binley, Coventry, West Midlands. In the same one-day visit the team topped up 20m² of loft insulation with 100mm of mineral wool, and the homeowner received a Certificate of Removal and a 10-year guarantee.
The problem
The roof in this Binley loft had 35m² of open cell spray foam sprayed onto the underside. Our surveyor checked the roof felt and found it in good condition behind the foam.
Many lenders and surveyors are cautious about spray foam, and it hides the roof timbers from view. The homeowner wanted it out, and 20m² of the loft floor also needed a top-up of insulation.
What we did
- Free survey: measured 35m² of open cell spray foam, checked the felt and agreed a written price.
- Removed the open cell spray foam from the rafters and the underside of the roof across 35m².
- Took moisture readings on the roof timbers once the foam was off.
- Topped up 20m² of the loft floor with 100mm of mineral wool.
- Bagged up the foam and waste and took it away.
- Issued a Certificate of Removal and a 10-year guarantee.
The result
The 35m² of open cell spray foam is gone, leaving the rafters and roof felt visible again for any future survey. The loft floor has an extra 100mm of insulation over 20m². The whole job took one day.
The homeowner has a Certificate of Removal and EcoTrust's 10-year guarantee for their records.
Spray foam removal in Coventry: questions we get asked
How long does spray foam removal take?
It depends on the area, the type of foam and access. This Coventry loft had 35m² of open cell spray foam, and our team removed it, topped up 20m² of loft insulation and cleared all the waste in a single day. Your free survey gives you a written timescale before anything is booked.
Why do people have spray foam removed from their loft?
Many lenders and surveyors are cautious about spray foam because it covers the roof timbers and stops them being inspected. Removing it, as we did in Binley, Coventry, lets the rafters and felt be seen again, and a Certificate of Removal records that the work was done properly.
What is a Certificate of Removal?
It is a document EcoTrust issues after every spray foam removal job, confirming the foam has been taken out of the property. The Coventry homeowner received one along with a 10-year guarantee, so they have a clear record to show a surveyor or buyer in future.
Do you replace the insulation after removing spray foam?
Yes, where it is needed. On this Coventry job we topped up 20m² of the loft floor with 100mm of mineral wool on the same day. Our surveyor checks what is already there and quotes for any insulation needed so the loft stays warm once the foam is gone.
