Spray Foam insulation: Lib Dem councillors highlighting concerns

Following an approach by a local resident, Cllr. Phil Redshaw has been highlighting issues of spray foam insulation when used as roof insulation, with the Council’s Trading Standards Team.

This process is still being promoted, yet householders are being affected due to issues with moisture trapping, potential timber decay, difficult expensive removal, non-recyclable materials and mortgage lenders' reluctance to lend on properties with it.

If you have been affected, advice is probably best sought from an organisation like the Citizens Advice Bureau.
