Residential Spray Foam RemovalMost of our Kensington and Chelsea work is residential: terraced houses in W11, mansion flats in SW7, and stucco-fronted townhouses in SW3. We protect staircases, cornices and original plaster with protective sheeting, then remove foam, vacuum the timbers and leave the loft clean enough for a valuer to inspect.View details →
Commercial Spray Foam RemovalShops, offices and small industrial units around West Brompton and the Earl's Court Road corridor often have spray foam in roof voids that has to come out before a refit or a change of use. We work evenings and weekends to keep your trading hours intact and dispose of everything through licensed waste routes.View details →
loft spray foam removalLoft spray foam removal Kensington and Chelsea is our most booked job. Foam sprayed between rafters traps heat and blocks ventilation, which is exactly what surveyors flag. We cut it back with oscillating multi-tools, clear the debris with an industrial vacuum, and check airflow at the eaves before we sign the job off.View details →
roof spray foam removalFoam sprayed directly onto the underside of roof tiles or slates is the hardest to remove and the most damaging if left. In Kensington and Chelsea's older roofs, it can hide broken battens and damp felt. We remove it in sections, inspect the structure underneath, and report anything that needs a roofer's attention.View details →
Attic spray foam removalAttics in Holland Park and Notting Hill often have low headroom and awkward access hatches. We use compact extraction kit and negative air machines to keep dust out of the house while we clear foam from the rafters and ceiling joists. Most attic jobs take one day, sometimes two on larger houses.View details →
spray foam insulation removalFull spray foam insulation removal means taking out the foam, the adhesive residue and any contaminated insulation beneath it. We use dry ice blasting on delicate timbers where scraping would cause damage, then vacuum and bag everything. You get the loft back in a condition a lender will accept.View details →
open cell spray foam removalOpen cell spray foam is softer and lighter than closed cell, but it still fails mortgage surveys because it traps moisture against timbers. We remove it with reciprocating saws and hand tools, then run a thermal imaging camera over the rafters to confirm no damp pockets are left behind in your Kensington and Chelsea loft.View details →
closed cell spray foam removalClosed cell spray foam sets like dense plastic and is the type lenders object to most. Removing it from SW3 and SW7 lofts takes longer, and we often need sand blasting equipment or dry ice pellets to shift the last of the adhesive residue without gouging the timber. Expect two to three days on a typical roof.View details →
mortgage lender spray foam removalIf your lender or valuer has asked for foam removal before they will release funds, we produce the paperwork they need: method statement, before-and-after photographs, and a signed confirmation that the loft is clear. We have helped buyers in SW5 and W8 keep their purchase on track when a survey threatened to derail it.View details →
insulation removal serviceSometimes the foam has to go along with old mineral wool, contaminated boards or crumbling lagging. Our insulation removal service in Kensington and Chelsea covers the full strip-out, including disposal bags, HEPA-filtered extraction and a final clean-down so the space is ready for new insulation or a conversion.View details →
insulation assessmentNot every foam job needs a full removal. Our insulation assessment uses a thermal imaging camera and a moisture meter to show you exactly what is in the loft, how far it has spread, and whether a lender is likely to accept it. You get a written report with photographs, usually within 48 hours of the visit.View details →
dry ice blasting spray foam removalDry ice blasting is our go-to method on listed buildings and delicate timber in Kensington and Chelsea. Dry ice pellets lift foam and adhesive residue without abrasive damage, and because the media sublimates there is far less secondary waste to clear. It costs more per day but protects fabric you cannot replace.View details →
Cavity wall spray foam removalCavity wall foam was installed under older grant schemes and now causes damp, cold bridging and failed surveys across W10 and W11. Removal means drilling the outer leaf, extracting the foam with specialist kit, and making good the brickwork. It is dusty work, and we schedule it so your neighbours are not affected.View details →
sand blasting spray foam insulation removalOn brickwork, stone and heavy timber where foam has bonded hard, sand blasting media cuts through the residue faster than hand tools. We use it carefully in Kensington and Chelsea's conservation areas, masking surrounding surfaces and controlling dust with air scrubbers so nothing nearby is marked.View details →
thermal spray foam removalThermal spray foam sits tight against roof membranes and can be hard to spot. We use a thermal imaging camera to map exactly where it is before we cut, which means less unnecessary damage to felt and battens. It is the difference between a targeted removal and a full roof strip.View details →
environmentally friendly insulation removalWe keep waste out of landfill wherever we can. Foam and contaminated insulation are bagged and sent through licensed disposal routes, dry ice blasting cuts secondary waste, and our vacuums run HEPA filters so dust does not end up in your street. It is cleaner for your home and for the borough.View details →
Warehouse spray Foam removalWarehouse and light industrial units on the western edge of the borough often have spray foam across large roof areas. We work in phases so part of the building stays usable, use negative air machines to control dust, and can operate overnight if your tenant needs the space back by morning.View details →

How we run spray foam removal in Kensington and Chelsea
Spray foam removal in Kensington and Chelsea Greater London is planned around the borough's quirks, not a generic checklist. Parking is the first problem: most streets in SW3 and W8 are permit-controlled, so we book visi
Permit-only parking on most residential streets
Vans cannot park on yellow lines or residents' bays without a suspension, which adds lead time to every job in SW3, SW7 and W8.
How we help: We apply for parking suspensions or book visitor permits as soon as you confirm the date, usually three to five working days ahead. If a suspension is refused, we use a licensed waste transfer point nearby and carry materials by hand rather than cancel.
Low headroom and narrow loft hatches
Standard extraction equipment will not fit through many hatches in Victorian terraces around W11 and SW5, slowing the job and risking damage to ceilings.
How we help: We survey the hatch and loft space first, then bring compact vacuums and modular ducting that break down to fit. Where the hatch is genuinely too small, we discuss a temporary access panel with you before any work starts.
Listed buildings and strict conservation areas
Abrasive removal methods can damage historic timber, plaster and brickwork that cannot be replaced, and some methods need consent.
How we help: On listed properties we default to dry ice blasting and hand tools, mask surrounding surfaces with protective sheeting, and keep sand blasting for areas where it is safe. We work to the conservation officer's conditions and photograph everything before and after.

We know the route
Getting around Kensington and Chelsea
Kensington and Chelsea is compact but slow to cross, and we plan routes around the landmarks rather than the postcode. Kensington Palace and the Royal Albert Hall are the two easiest orientation points on the west side, while the museum cluster around Exhibition Road anchors the south. Portobello Road Market tells us when to avoid W11 on a Saturday, and Harrods is the reference point we use for jobs around Knightsbridge and the Brompton Road side of SW3.
Royal Albert Hall
Sits at the southern edge of Kensington Gardens and marks the boundary between SW7 and W8, which helps us route vans between South Kensington and Notting Hill without crossing the busiest junctions.
Victoria and Albert Museum
Anchors the Exhibition Road museum cluster in SW7. Jobs in the surrounding mansion blocks are usually walked from here when parking is restricted.
Natural History Museum
On Cromwell Road, a useful marker for the SW7 and SW5 boundary and for planning access to streets south of the museums.
