Spray Foam Removal in Edinburgh | Free Independent Advice
If you own a property in Edinburgh with spray foam insulation in the roof or loft, you may be experiencing serious problems with your mortgage, sale, or remortgage. The National Spray Foam Advisory offers completely free, independent spray foam removal advice to homeowners across Edinburgh and the wider Scotland area.
Why Spray Foam Removal in Edinburgh Matters
Spray foam in a roof space can make a property harder to mortgage. Research by the HomeOwners Alliance with the BBC found that only around 25% of mortgage lenders — and no equity release providers — will lend where spray foam was installed as a retrofit, although some will lend where the right evidence is provided: see which lenders will and will not lend. If your Edinburgh property has spray foam in the roof space, you may find your mortgage declined, your sale falling through, or your remortgage refused. Spray foam removal by a vetted, qualified specialist, combined with the correct documentation, is the most reliable way to resolve these issues and make your property mortgageable again.

Across the UK the typical three-bedroom home with around 80m² of roof space comes in near £4,500.
