Throughout Saltdean and the nearby areas, many homes have been fitted with various forms of insulation over the years. Traditional insulation became widely used in the 1970s and remained a common choice, while spray foam insulation saw a sharp rise from the mid-2000s to 2020, fuelled by market expansion and government initiatives aimed at improving energy efficiency.
Spray foam insulation emerged as a modern solution for improving energy efficiency and enhancing EPC ratings. It was often promoted as being up to 50% more efficient than standard fibreglass, while also gaining recognition for its soundproofing benefits and its ability to form a long-lasting, airtight barrier that helps prevent moisture build-up.
While spray foam insulation provided certain benefits, many of its potential issues were often overlooked or underestimated when installed in homes across Saltdean.
Spray foam insulation has the potential to trap moisture in roof spaces, leading to hidden mould growth and gradual timber decay—problems that, if ignored, can result in serious structural damage over time.
As spray foam insulation cures, it can release chemicals that may lead to headaches, respiratory irritation, and other possible health issues.
If a roof becomes damaged, spray foam insulation can restrict access, making it difficult for roofers, surveyors, or insurance inspectors to locate and repair leaks effectively.
A major issue for homeowners with spray foam insulation is that many mortgage lenders now reject applications due to potential long-term structural risks. As a result, if your Saltdean property contains spray foam insulation, selling it may prove challenging until the foam is professionally removed and any associated damage is fully addressed.
