Are you a homeowner looking for some advice?
We have more than 30 years experience dealing with the installation of spray foam insulation. We can help homeowners navigate finding a spray foam insulation mortgage, as well as guidance on regulations and will help you find the lender that matches your needs.
We have also recently participated in the creation of an Inspection Protocol guidance for building professionals.
Should I be worried about having Spray Foam insulation installed in my property?
While we know that some customers have experienced challenges, there are thousands of installations taking place each year without issue, and homeowners are successfully selling or refinancing their properties. Benefit from the expertise of a trusted network of authorised installers for a professional installation and peace of mind.
How do I know that Spray Foam is installed to a high standard?
The Spray Foam insulation sector has been working hard to standardise installation practices and ensure quality through a range of mechanisms including independent testing and certification procedures.
We only work with authorised contractors, and we offer a standard 25-year warranty on HBS products.
I already have Spray Foam insulation. Should I be worried about selling or getting a mortgage in future?
If Spray Foam is already installed in your home and you have any concerns about future sale or refinancing, we recommend that you check the paperwork which should have been provided with the installation.
This documentation can be very useful in providing peace of mind and should a problem arise at point of sale or refinancing to share with surveyors and/or lenders.
I'm selling my home - how do I know my surveyor knows about spray foam?
Together with the professional bodies in our industry, we have developed an Inspection Protocol to educate surveyors on assessing a home with spray foam insulation.
Through a five-stage framework, the Inspection Protocol supports professionals to confidently assess pitched roof elements and determine an overall recommendation for the suitability of spray foam insulation as well as a methodology for surveyors to ensure proper installation of spray foam. This includes undertaking and recording observations of the roof structure, the spray foam insulation which is present and the loft space.
How do I know my surveyor is using the Inspection Protocol
You can download the protocol below which can be passed onto your surveyor if they don't already have it. Part of the protocol also includes a homeowner pack, which we have always supplied to homeowners when HBS spray foam insulation is installed. This documents key evaluation measures prior to installation, including the condition of the roof and a hygrothermal evaluation, alongside details of the material installed and of the installer.
