Across Lancing and nearby areas, homes have had different types of insulation installed over the decades. Traditional insulation became widely used from the 1970s onward, while spray foam insulation saw a notable surge in popularity between the mid-2000s and 2020, fueled by market expansion and government schemes promoting better energy efficiency.
Spray foam insulation was marketed as an advanced way to boost energy efficiency and improve EPC ratings, offering up to 50% better performance than conventional fibreglass. It was also praised for reducing noise and creating a durable seal that protects against air and moisture.
Although some of these advantages were genuine, many of the issues linked to spray foam insulation were frequently ignored or underestimated when it was fitted in homes throughout Lancing.
Spray foam insulation has a tendency to trap moisture, which can lead to concealed mold growth and slow timber decay, potentially causing significant structural damage to your roof over time.
During the curing process, spray foam insulation can emit harmful chemicals that may cause respiratory irritation, headaches, and other potential health issues.
If a roof becomes damaged, spray foam can hinder roofers, surveyors, or insurance assessors from properly locating and repairing leaks, as the foam blocks access.
One of the biggest worries for homeowners with spray foam insulation is that many mortgage lenders now decline applications due to potential long-term structural risks. Consequently, if your Lancing property has spray foam insulation, selling it may be difficult until the foam is safely removed and any related damage addressed.
