Professional spray foam insulation removal across Citywest. Free inspection, written quote, no pressure tactics.
Citywest homeowners trust Peak Roofing for spray foam removal. 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 Citywest, 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.
Citywest is a purpose-built modern suburb developed from the late 1990s around the Citywest Business Campus and hotel, with large residential developments characterised by 2000s and 2010s semi-detached and townhouse estates. Properties in Citywest are predominantly 2000s and 2010s semi-detached houses, townhouses and apartment developments, with a small number of later new-build schemes still being completed. Common roof issues we address here include new build roof defects on 2000s developments including failed lead valley flashings, poor ridge tile bedding, flat roof membrane failures on rear extensions, and some storm damage on exposed estates near the N7 / Naas Road corridor, spray foam insulation is an increasing issue in Citywest properties.
