If spray foam removal in Greenwich is holding up your sale, mortgage or loft conversion, we strip it out properly. Serenity Spray Foam Installers has worked across Greenwich, Blackheath and Charlton since 2022, removing open cell spray foam, closed cell spray foam and failed insulation foam from lofts, roofs and cavity walls. We cut it out, bag it, and leave the timber clean enough for a surveyor to sign off.
Greenwich demand splits roughly into three buckets: homeowners who cannot sell because of a lender survey, landlords fixing failed loft insulation, and commercial units near The O2 and Charlton that need old foam stripped before refit. We cover all of it, from a single loft in Kidbrooke to a full warehouse in Thamesmead. If you need spray foam removal near me in Greenwich, we can usually survey within 48 hours and quote the same day.
Spray Foam Removal near meWe cover every Greenwich postcode from SE3 through to SE28, so a local call-out is genuinely local. Most jobs are lofts in Victorian terraces around Blackheath and Greenwich Park, plus a steady stream of 1970s houses in Eltham. We arrive with the thermal imaging camera and industrial vacuum on the first visit, so you get a firm scope and price rather than a guess.View details →
same day Spray Foam RemovalSame day spray foam removal is available across Greenwich when a surveyor or lender needs the loft cleared fast. Call before 10am and we can often be on site in Charlton, Woolwich or Plumstead the same afternoon. We prioritise mortgage-driven jobs because a stalled sale costs you more than the removal does.View details →
24/7 Spray Foam RemovalOur 24/7 line covers Greenwich for urgent call-outs, including water ingress through failed foam in riverside developments near The O2 and storm-damaged roofs in Thamesmead. We will attend, make the roof watertight and remove the saturated foam. Out-of-hours work is quoted upfront so there is no surprise on the invoice.View details →
Residential Spray Foam RemovalMost Greenwich residential work is loft and roof foam in Victorian terraces, 1930s semis and modern townhouses. We protect carpets, stairwells and loft hatches with protective sheeting, run a negative air machine to keep dust out of the house, and bag every scrap of foam for disposal. You get the loft back clean and ready for a surveyor.View details →
Commercial Spray Foam RemovalCommercial spray foam removal in Greenwich covers units around Charlton, the Greenwich Peninsula and warehouse space in Thamesmead. We work around trading hours, often nights or weekends, and provide waste transfer documentation for the removed foam. Larger roofs are surveyed with thermal imaging first so we only strip what has actually failed.View details →
loft spray foam removalLoft spray foam removal is our most common Greenwich job. Victorian lofts in Blackheath and Greenwich Park often have open cell spray foam sprayed directly onto the felt, which blocks ventilation and rots the rafters. We cut the foam back, clear the vents and treat any timber rot before it spreads. Most lofts take one to two days.View details →
roof spray foam removalRoof spray foam removal in Greenwich usually means stripping foam from between rafters where it has trapped condensation against the felt. We work from inside the loft where possible, using oscillating multi-tools and reciprocating saws to cut cleanly without damaging the roof covering. Where tiles must come off, we make good before we leave.View details →
Attic spray foam removalAttic spray foam removal across Greenwich covers everything from small hatches in Kidbrooke to full walk-in attics in Eltham. We check for hidden damp and rot with a thermal imaging camera before we start, because foam often hides a bigger problem. If the timbers are sound, we strip and bag the foam and leave the attic ventilated.View details →
spray foam insulation removalSpray foam insulation removal in Greenwich is often driven by a lender or surveyor rather than the homeowner. We remove open cell spray foam, closed cell spray foam and polyurethane foam, then provide a written summary of what was removed and the condition of the timbers. That document is what your lender or surveyor will ask for.View details →
open cell spray foam removalOpen cell spray foam is the softer, sponge-like foam common in older Greenwich lofts. It soaks up moisture and holds it against the felt, which is why so many SE10 and SE3 lofts have damp rafters. We cut it out in sections, bag it, and clear the ventilation paths so the roof can dry out properly.View details →
closed cell spray foam removalClosed cell spray foam is denser and harder to remove, and it is common in newer Greenwich builds and loft conversions. It is also the foam most likely to trigger a mortgage rejection. We use reciprocating saws and oscillating multi-tools to cut it back without gouging the rafters, then sand the residue down.View details →
mortgage lender spray foam removalA mortgage rejection due to spray foam is the single biggest reason Greenwich homeowners call us. Lenders and surveyors want the foam gone and the loft ventilated before they will value the property. We remove the foam, document the condition of the timbers and provide the paperwork your lender needs to release the funds.View details →
insulation removal serviceOur insulation removal service in Greenwich covers spray foam, old mineral wool and contaminated insulation in lofts, cavity walls and roof voids. We use an industrial vacuum and HEPA filters to keep dust contained, and we remove everything in disposal bags. You get a clean void ready for new insulation that meets current standards.View details →
insulation assessmentBefore any removal, we assess the insulation in your Greenwich property with a thermal imaging camera and a moisture meter. That tells us whether the foam is actually causing a problem or whether it can stay. You get a straight answer, a written summary and a fixed price if removal is needed.View details →
dry ice blasting spray foam removalDry ice blasting is our cleanest method for removing spray foam from awkward Greenwich roof timbers. Dry ice pellets lift the foam without the water damage that sand blasting can cause, and there is no secondary media to clean up. It is ideal for conservation-area properties in Blackheath where we need to protect original timbers.View details →
Cavity wall spray foam removalCavity wall spray foam removal in Greenwich is usually needed when foam has bridged the cavity and caused damp patches on internal walls. We inspect with a thermal imaging camera, then remove the foam through drilled access points and clear the cavity. Most houses are done in a day with minimal disruption.View details →
sand blasting spray foam insulation removalSand blasting spray foam insulation removal is used on stubborn foam in Greenwich commercial units and older brick-built lofts where other methods leave residue. We control the media with protective sheeting and an air scrubber, then vacuum every trace before we leave. It is slower than dry ice but effective on dense closed cell foam.View details →
thermal spray foam removalThermal spray foam removal uses heat to soften dense foam before cutting, which reduces damage to rafters in older Greenwich properties. We use it where the foam has bonded hard to timber in Victorian lofts around Greenwich Park and Blackheath. The heat is controlled so there is no risk to the roof structure.View details →
environmentally friendly insulation removalEnvironmentally friendly insulation removal in Greenwich means we bag and separate foam for appropriate disposal, use HEPA filtration to protect air quality, and avoid chemical strippers where mechanical removal will do. We also advise on replacement insulation that meets PAS 2035 standards so the loft performs properly afterwards.View details →
Warehouse spray Foam removalWarehouse spray foam removal across Greenwich covers units in Charlton, Thamesmead and the Greenwich Peninsula. These roofs are large, often fragile, and need careful planning. We survey with thermal imaging, work in sections to keep the building usable, and provide waste transfer notes for every load removed.View details →
Greenwich jobs need planning because access is rarely simple. Victorian terraces around Greenwich Park and Blackheath often have narrow loft hatches and no off-street parking, so we book parking suspensions where needed
Older Greenwich terraces often have hatches under 600mm, which makes getting equipment and bagged foam in and out slow. It also limits which machines we can use inside the loft.
How we help: We carry compact dry ice blasting and vacuum equipment that fits through standard hatches, and we cut foam into smaller sections so it can be passed out by hand. Where a hatch is too tight, we discuss widening it as part of the job.
Controlled parking zones around SE10 mean we cannot always park outside the property, which adds time to every load carried out. It also affects where we can position the van for waste loading.
How we help: We check the zone before the job and book a suspension or bay where needed. On streets where that is not possible, we use a trolley and run bagged foam to the nearest legal loading point, and we build that time into the quote.
Properties in conservation areas often have original roof timbers and felt that cannot be replaced, so removal methods have to be gentle. Aggressive blasting or cutting risks damage that would need listed-building consent to repair.
How we help: We default to dry ice blasting on these roofs because it lifts foam without water or abrasive media. Where cutting is needed, we use oscillating multi-tools with fine blades and protect the timbers with sacrificial boards.

Greenwich is easy to navigate once you know it, but the one-way systems and parking zones around the town centre catch people out. We use the Cutty Sark and the Royal Observatory as our main orientation points when routing to jobs in SE10, and Greenwich Park as the marker for Blackheath and the west side. For work out towards Charlton and Woolwich, we come off the A102 and use The O2 as the reference point. The National Maritime Museum helps us pin down the streets behind the town centre, and Eltham Palace is our marker for the SE9 jobs. If you are near any of these, we will find you.
The Cutty Sark is our main orientation point for jobs in central Greenwich and the streets around SE10. It helps us route around the one-way system and the pedestrianised town centre, and it marks the start of the riverside developments we work in.
The Royal Observatory sits at the top of Greenwich Park and is a useful marker for the Blackheath and west Greenwich jobs. We use it to work out the best approach from the A2 or the park side, especially when the town centre is congested.
Greenwich Park splits the borough and affects routing between SE10 and SE3. Knowing which side of the park a job is on tells us whether to come through the town centre or around via Blackheath, which can save 15 minutes on a call-out.
The O2 is the reference point for the Greenwich Peninsula and the riverside developments we work in. It also helps us plan around event-day traffic, which can close roads and add significant time to a job if we do not check the calendar first.

Call 02080885342 →Most residential lofts in Greenwich cost between 1,800 and 2,800 pounds in 2026. Small open cell lofts can start around 1,200 pounds, while large closed cell roofs or commercial units in Thamesmead can run to 4,500 pounds or more. We quote fixed prices after a site survey, so the number you get is the number you pay.
We do. Serenity Spray Foam Installers has covered Greenwich since 2022, working out of SE10 and running regular routes through SE3, SE7, SE9, SE18 and SE28. We handle residential lofts, cavity walls and commercial roofs, and we are set up for mortgage-driven jobs where the lender needs documentation.
Yes, subject to route. Call before 10am and we can often be on site in Charlton, Woolwich or Plumstead the same afternoon. Same day slots are prioritised for mortgage and sale deadlines, because a stalled sale costs more than the removal. We will confirm the time when you call.
We cover the whole borough, from Blackheath and Greenwich Park out to Eltham, Kidbrooke and Thamesmead. We also work across South East London, including Lewisham, Bromley and Bexley. If you are not sure whether we reach you, call 02080885342 and we will tell you straight away.
The best removal is the one that gets your loft signed off without damaging the roof. That means a thermal imaging survey first, the right method for the foam type, proper containment, and a written report for your lender. We do all four on every Greenwich job, and we have the case studies to prove it.
Free survey, fixed price, and photographs for your lender when we finish. Call 02080885342 or email us and we will book you in, often within 48 hours.
