Our story
Built for Lancaster since 2022
Forward Edge Spray Foam started in 2022 after our founder spent a year watching Lancaster homeowners struggle with spray foam they never asked for. Estate agents were flagging it, mortgage lenders were refusing loans, and nobody local could take it out without wrecking the roof. We bought our first dry ice blasting machine, trained on open cell and closed cell foam, and took on eleven jobs in that first winter. Four years on, we have cleared more than 1,200 properties across Lancaster, Morecambe, Heysham and the Lune Valley. About spray foam removal Lancaster is really a story about giving people their homes back. We take the foam out, we check the timbers, and we leave a property a lender will sign off.
Forward Edge Spray Foam has been removing failed spray foam insulation across Lancaster since 2022. We work from Lancaster City Centre out to Heysham, Halton and Overton, pulling out open cell spray foam, closed cell spray foam and polyurethane foam that has trapped moisture in roofs, lofts and cavity walls. Most jobs start with a surveyor's report or a mortgage lender's query, and we deal with both every week.
Our technicians use dry ice blasting machine kit, spray foam cutting tools and an industrial vacuum to strip foam back to bare timber without gouging the rafters. We hold BPCA certification, CHAS accreditation and SafeContractor approval, and every operative works to COSHH and PASMA standards. If you need a spray foam removal company Lancaster reviews actually back up, we will show you the timbers before and after.
How we work
Our team
The people doing the work
Lead removal technician
Role
Twelve years in insulation and four with us. He runs the dry ice blasting machine on tricky jobs and has cleared foam from more than 600 Lancaster roofs, from Scotforth terraces to Bare bungalows. If a rafter is rotten under the foam, he is the one who spots it before it becomes a bigger bill.
Surveyor and estimator
Role
Former building surveyor who joined in 2023. He handles the mortgage lender spray foam removal paperwork, loft condensation reports and insulation assessments. When a buyer's lender asks for evidence the foam is gone and the roof is sound, his report is what gets the sale moving again.
Crew chief, commercial
Role
Looks after warehouse and commercial spray foam removal across Lancashire. He has stripped foam from units in Heysham and Lancaster's industrial estates using sand blasting equipment where cutting tools will not reach. He also runs our COSHH and site safety paperwork.
Tools we use
The equipment behind every removal
Forward Edge Spray Foam runs three removal crews out of Lancaster, each two or three people, covering Lancaster, Lancashire and the surrounding villages. Between us we hold BPCA certification, CHAS accreditation, SafeContractor and PASMA, with CITB and NVQ training on the cutting and access side. Our lead technicians have been taking foam out since 2022 and have seen every version of the problem: Icynene in a 1970s bungalow, BASF and Dow closed cell sprayed straight onto tiles, Huntsman foam gone brittle after fifteen years. We work with dry ice blasting machines, thermal removal tools, oscillating multi-tools and reciprocating saws, and we carry respirators and safety harnesses on every van. If you want a spray foam removal team Lancaster homeowners actually recommend, this is who turns up.
