Spray foam removal specialists covering Plymouth and Devon
Spray Foam Elevate Solutions has been removing failed spray foam insulation across Plymouth since 2022. We work from Millbay and cover the whole of Devon, from Plympton lofts to Cattedown warehouses.

We survey, strip and dispose, then give you a clean roof space you can actually use.
What separates us is the kit and the paperwork. We use dry ice blasting machines and industrial vacuums rather than ripping foam out with a crowbar, which protects your timber and plasterboard.

Same day Spray Foam Removal
Need foam gone today? We keep same-day slots open for urgent mortgage valuations and survey deadlines across Plymouth. Call before 10am and we will usually have a technician at your property the same afternoon with the right removal tools on board.
24/7 Spray Foam Removal
Our 24/7 spray foam removal Plymouth line covers emergency callouts, including water ingress after storm damage where foam is trapping moisture against rafters. A duty technician answers day or night and books you into the next available slot, seven days a week.
Residential Spray Foam Removal
Homes across Devonport, Efford and Crownhill trust us to clear spray foam without wrecking ceilings or insulation boards. We protect floors and furnishings, work room by room, and leave the loft swept clean. Fixed price given before we start.
Commercial Spray Foam Removal
We clear spray foam from shops, offices, workshops and industrial units around Cattedown, Estover and Derriford. Work is scheduled around your opening hours, with CHAS and SafeContractor documentation supplied for your facilities file. Out-of-hours slots available.
Loft Spray Foam Removal
Loft spray foam removal is our most requested job. We cut out open cell foam from between rafters, check for timber decay underneath, and clear ventilation paths so your roof can breathe again. Most Plymouth lofts are finished within two working days.
Roof Spray Foam Removal
Foam sprayed directly onto roof decks traps condensation and rots battens from the inside. We remove it from the underside of roofs across Plymstock and Wembury, inspect the felt and timber, and report anything that needs a roofer before we finish.
Attic Spray Foam Removal
Attics with limited access need smaller tools and patience. Our technicians use scrapers, saws and compact vacuums to clear foam from tight eaves and awkward corners, then vacuum every surface so no dust settles in your stored belongings.
Spray Foam Insulation Removal
If your insulation has failed, sagged or started holding water, we remove it completely rather than patching over the problem. That includes polyurethane spray foam, loose fill and old insulation boards, all bagged and disposed of under waste regulations.
Open Cell Spray Foam Removal
Open cell foam is softer and often soaks up moisture like a sponge. We cut it back with saws and scrapers, check the vapour barrier behind it, and dry the timber before we leave. Common in lofts across Honicknowle and Southway.
Closed Cell Spray Foam Removal
Closed cell foam sets rock hard and needs mechanical removal. We use dry ice blasting machines and sand blasting equipment to break the bond without gouging the rafters, then grind back any residue so new insulation can sit flat.
Mortgage Lender Spray Foam Removal
Lenders often refuse mortgages where spray foam is present and undocumented. We remove the foam, photograph every stage, and provide a written report your surveyor can file. This is the fastest route to unlocking a stalled Plymouth purchase.
Insulation Removal Service
A full insulation removal service covering spray foam, mineral wool and board insulation in one visit. We strip the lot, clear the debris, and leave your loft ready for a fresh, lender-approved insulation system. Fixed price, no hidden extras.
Insulation Assessment
Not sure whether your foam needs removing? We inspect the type, depth and condition, check for condensation and ventilation blockage, and tell you honestly whether removal is necessary. Written findings provided the same day.
Dry Ice Blasting Spray Foam Removal
Dry ice blasting freezes the foam so it releases from timber without chemicals or water. It is our preferred method on older rafters and listed properties around the Barbican, where preserving the original wood matters most.
Cavity Wall Spray Foam Removal
Foam injected into cavity walls can bridge the damp-proof course and cause penetrating damp. We remove it through drilled access points, clear the cavity, and make good the brickwork. Common in 1930s housing across Peverell and Mannamead.
Sand Blasting Spray Foam Insulation Removal
For stubborn closed cell foam on brick and concrete, sand blasting equipment strips the surface back to clean substrate. We contain the dust, mask nearby surfaces, and finish with an industrial vacuum pass so nothing is left behind.
Thermal Spray Foam Removal
Thermal foam applied around pipes, tanks and ductwork can hide leaks and block access for maintenance. We remove it carefully, inspect the pipework underneath, and reinstate approved insulation that meets current building standards.
Environmentally Friendly Insulation Removal
We bag and segregate every waste stream and dispose of foam through licensed carriers, recycling where the material allows. Our dry ice method avoids chemical strippers entirely, which keeps fumes out of your home and runoff out of Plymouth's drains.
Warehouse Spray Foam Removal
Large-span warehouse roofs often carry thousands of square metres of spray foam. We phase the work to keep your operation running, working nights and weekends where needed, and provide method statements and risk assessments before mobilising.

We hold BPCA and CHAS accreditation and work to SafeContractor standards, with full public liability cover on every job. Certificates are available on request before we start, which keeps surveyors, lenders and commercial clients happy.
Dry ice blasting protects your timber

Book a surveyHow our spray foam removal process works
Free survey
We visit your property, identify whether the foam is open cell or closed cell, check for condensation, damp and timber decay, and measure the area. You get honest findings and a fixed written price, usually the same day.
Protection and setup
Floors, furnishings and loft hatches get covered before any tools come out. We set up extraction and containment so dust stays in the work area, and our technicians suit up in protective clothing and respirators.
Foam removal
Foam comes out using dry ice blasting, sand blasting equipment, saws and scrapers, depending on the material and the timber underneath. We work methodically across the loft, checking rafters and the vapour barrier as we go.
Clearance and report
Every surface gets an industrial vacuum pass, all waste is bagged and removed, and you receive a written report with photographs. If a lender or surveyor needs documentation, we supply it directly, often within 24 hours.
Spray foam problems we solve across Plymouth
Mortgage lender refuses to lend because of spray foam
We remove the foam, document every stage with photographs and a written report, and hand the pack to your lender or surveyor. Most Plymouth buyers we help are back on track within a week of the survey.
Condensation dripping from the roof lining
Spray foam often blocks ventilation paths, so warm moist air condenses on cold roof surfaces. We clear the foam, restore airflow at the eaves, and check the vapour barrier so the roof can dry out properly.
Timber decay hidden under the foam
Foam can hide rot for years. Once it is off, we inspect every rafter and batten, treat or flag any decayed timber, and tell you plainly whether a carpenter needs to replace anything before new insulation goes in.
Damp patches spreading across upstairs ceilings
Foam bridging a cavity or trapping moisture against plasterboard causes damp stains that keep coming back. We remove the foam, clear the cavity, and make good the brickwork so the damp-proof course can do its job again.
Surveyor flags insulation failure during a house sale
A failed insulation report can kill a sale. We attend quickly, remove the foam, and provide the compliance paperwork your buyer's surveyor needs, with emergency spray foam removal Plymouth slots available when deadlines are tight.
