Over time, many homes in Battle and the nearby areas have been fitted with various forms of insulation. Conventional materials gained popularity during the 1970s and stayed common for decades, while spray foam insulation became increasingly widespread from the mid-2000s to around 2020, largely influenced by changing market trends and government efforts to encourage energy efficiency.
Spray foam insulation was introduced as a contemporary method to boost energy efficiency and raise EPC ratings. Marketed as being up to 50% more effective than traditional fibreglass, it’s also appreciated for its noise-reducing properties and its capacity to create a durable, airtight seal that helps protect against moisture ingress.
Although spray foam insulation offered some advantages, its possible downsides were frequently ignored or underestimated when it was installed in homes throughout Battle.
Spray foam insulation has the potential to trap moisture inside roof spaces, which can lead to concealed mould growth and the slow deterioration of timber—issues that, if left untreated, may cause significant structural damage over time.
During the curing process, spray foam insulation can emit chemicals that may cause respiratory irritation, headaches, and other possible health concerns.
When a roof sustains damage, spray foam insulation can block access, making it challenging for roofers, surveyors, or insurance assessors to identify and repair leaks properly.
One of the biggest challenges for homeowners with spray foam insulation is that many mortgage lenders now refuse applications because of the potential long-term structural risks. Consequently, if your Battle property contains spray foam insulation, selling it may prove difficult until the foam is professionally removed and any related damage has been properly repaired.
