Spray foam removal generates dust, fragments and adhesive residue. Standard removal includes basic clean-down, but heavier jobs (closed-cell, large lofts, evidence of timber rot underneath) benefit from a full loft decontamination — fragment removal, vacuum extraction, anti-fungal timber treatment where rot was found, and final inspection photos for the paperwork pack. Particularly important on properties going to a strict surveyor (RICS Halifax-approved panel often flag residual debris on follow-up inspection).
Soft, flexible foam — quick to identify, faster to remove.
