This property recently received a full re-roof, replacing an ageing roof that had spray foam insulation installed. While spray foam is often marketed as a way to improve insulation, it can create significant challenges when repairs are needed. As the foam adheres to the underside of the tiles and battens, the roof covering effectively becomes bonded together. Normally, if a tile becomes damaged, a roofer can remove and replace it relatively easily. With spray foam present, removing a single tile often requires the foam to be aggressively cut and scraped away. This can disturb surrounding tiles, damage the roof covering, and turn a simple repair into a much larger job. It's one of the reasons many homeowners, surveyors, and mortgage lenders have concerns about spray foam insulation in roofs. The new roof has been finished with dark grey concrete tiles and red ridge tiles, providing an attractive finish and restoring the roof.
