Throughout Newhaven and the surrounding areas, homes have been equipped with various types of insulation over the years. Traditional insulation became popular in the 1970s and continued to be widely used, while spray foam insulation saw a significant rise from the mid-2000s to 2020, fueled by market expansion and government initiatives encouraging better energy efficiency.
Spray foam insulation emerged as a modern way to enhance energy efficiency and improve EPC ratings, often promoted as being up to 50% more effective than conventional fibreglass. It was also valued for its soundproofing benefits and its ability to form a strong, airtight barrier that helps prevent moisture penetration.
While spray foam insulation came with certain benefits, many of its potential drawbacks were often overlooked or underestimated when installed in homes across Newhaven.
Spray foam insulation has the potential to trap moisture in roof spaces, which can lead to hidden mould growth and gradual timber decay—problems that, if ignored, could result in serious structural damage over time.
As spray foam insulation cures, it can release chemicals that may lead to respiratory irritation, headaches, and other possible health issues.
If a roof is damaged, spray foam insulation can block access, making it more difficult for roofers, surveyors, or insurance assessors to locate and fix leaks efficiently.
A major challenge for homeowners with spray foam insulation is that many mortgage lenders now decline applications because of potential long-term structural risks. As a result, if your Newhaven property has spray foam insulation, selling it could be difficult until the foam is professionally removed and any associated damage is fully addressed.
