For spray foam removal in Ashbourne, Peak Roofing provides expert, fully insured service. Spray foam roof insulation was widely applied in Irish homes from the 1980s through to the 2000s, marketed as an energy-saving measure for the attic space. Peak Roofing and Building carries out professional spray foam removal across Ashbourne, covering both open-cell and closed-cell foam systems. Two types were commonly used: open-cell foam, which is soft and slightly permeable, and closed-cell foam, which sets hard and is completely impermeable to water vapour. Closed-cell foam in particular is the more serious problem — it creates a sealed vapour barrier across the underside of the roof structure, trapping moisture inside the roof void. Over time, that trapped moisture condenses and causes rot in the roof timbers beneath. The critical issue is that the foam physically encases the rafters, making it impossible for surveyors or structural engineers to see the condition of the timber underneath — which is precisely why so many lenders in Ireland and the UK will now decline to mortgage or remortgage a property until the foam has been professionally removed and the underlying timber structure assessed and certified.

Ashbourne is a fast-growing Meath commuter town north of Dublin on the M2, with housing stock predominantly from the 1990s and 2000s large estate developments. Properties in Ashbourne are predominantly 1990s and 2000s semi-detached estates, townhouses and large modern new build developments. Common roof issues we address here include new build roof defects on large 2000s estate developments, concrete tile deterioration on 1990s stock, flat roof failures on rear extensions, and storm damage on exposed estates, spray foam insulation is an increasing issue in Ashbourne properties. Our roofers understand the construction methods and typical materials used in Ashbourne — every inspection is free and every job begins with a written quote.

"James and the team have done two different jobs for us. The first was to re-felt our roof and fix the flashing around the chimney and clear gutters which cleared up 2 substantial leaks that had been causing damage. He kept us updated with videos of the work throughout the day to show work complete and progress."

Frequently Asked Questions

From €2,000 depending on roof size and foam thickness. Free inspection to assess scope before any commitment — we assess the foam type and coverage before providing a written quote.
Yes, in many cases. Most mainstream lenders in Ireland and the UK will not approve a mortgage or remortgage on a property with spray foam insulation in the roof until it has been professionally removed and the underlying roof timbers assessed and certified. If you are buying, selling or remortgaging a property in Ashbourne and spray foam has been flagged, we can inspect, remove and provide a written structural report suitable for your solicitor and lender.
Open-cell foam is soft and slightly permeable — it is less likely to cause severe moisture problems but many lenders will still flag it. Closed-cell foam sets hard, is completely impermeable to water vapour, and creates a sealed barrier that traps moisture against the roof timbers, accelerating rot. It also bonds more strongly to surfaces, making removal harder and more labour-intensive. Both types are found in Ashbourne properties built or renovated between the 1980s and early 2000s.
Spray foam looks like a yellowed or off-white foam coating applied to the underside of the roof rafters, visible from inside the attic. A quick look with a torch will usually reveal it immediately — the rafters will be partially or fully encased in foam. If you are unsure, we can carry out a free inspection at your Ashbourne property.
Removal from a standard semi-detached in Ashbourne typically takes 1–2 days depending on foam coverage and type. Once removed, we carry out a full visual and physical assessment of all exposed roof timbers, documented with photographs. Timbers in good condition are certified. Any rot or structural deterioration is noted in our written report, and we provide a separate quote for any remedial timber work required.
In Ashbourne, the roofing problems we see most often are new build roof defects on large 2000s estate developments, concrete tile deterioration on 1990s stock, flat roof failures on rear extensions, and storm damage on exposed estates. A free inspection is the best way to check whether any of these apply to your roof — call 085 782 8222 to arrange one.
