Modern Touch Spray Foam has been removing spray foam across Halifax since 2022. We cut out open cell and closed cell foam from lofts, rafters and cavity walls, then clean the timber so it can dry and breathe again. Most of our work comes from homeowners who have been told by a mortgage lender that the foam has to go before the sale can complete.
We are a small Halifax crew, not a national franchise. That means the person who surveys your roof is the person who cuts the foam out. We cover Halifax City Centre, Sowerby Bridge, Brighouse, Elland, Hebden Bridge and the surrounding villages, and we can usually get eyes on a job within 48 hours of your call. If you have been searching for spray foam removal Halifax near me and want a straight answer on cost, ring us and we will tell you what we think before you commit to anything.


Every roof is different, so we do not sell one fixed package. Some Halifax jobs need a full loft strip-out, others just need the foam cut back from the eaves so the roof can vent. We handle residential and commercial work, from a single terraced house in Pellon to a warehouse unit out towards Brighouse.

Some jobs are small enough to clear in a single visit. If the foam is only on the rafters and the timbers are sound, we can often survey in the morning and have it out by the afternoon. Ring before 10am and we will tell you straight whether same-day is realistic.

We are not the cheapest quote you will get, and we do not pretend to be. What we are is a Halifax crew that turns up when we say we will, cuts the foam out properly, and leaves a roof space you can actually sell. Here is what that looks like in practice.
Our removal work follows PAS 2035 principles, which is the standard lenders and surveyors in West Yorkshire now expect to see referenced. We are CHAS and Constructionline registered, and we carry the insurance that lets us work on occupied homes and commercial sites alike.
Anyone can rip foam out. We check the rafters and battens for roof timber rot and structural timber damage while the roof is open, photograph what we find, and tell you if the timbers need treatment before new insulation goes back in. That record is what gets a mortgage lender refusal overturned.
We run an industrial vacuum and air scrubber on every internal job, seal the loft hatch with sheeting, and wear full PPE respirator kit. Foam dust is nasty stuff and it does not belong in your kitchen. Most Halifax homeowners tell us they barely knew we were there.
We come out, get into the loft or roof void, and look at what has actually been sprayed. You get a fixed price and an honest view on whether the foam needs to come out at all.
Carpets, loft boards and belongings get sheeted up. We set the air scrubber and industrial vacuum running before any cutting starts, so dust stays in the work zone and out of your living space.
Foam comes out in sections with a spray foam cutting saw, oscillating multi-tool or thermal removal tools depending on how hard it has set. Timbers are cleaned back to bare wood and checked as we go.
We photograph the timbers, bag everything for disposal, and walk you through what we found. You get the written record your lender or surveyor needs, plus a clear roof space ready for the next step.
Every Halifax job follows the same four steps. You know what is happening, when it is happening, and what it will cost before we pick up a cutting tool.

Most people ring us because a sale has stalled or a roof is holding water. Here are the four situations we get called to most often across Halifax and West Yorkshire.
We remove the foam, photograph the timbers underneath and give you a written record of the roof condition. Your surveyor or lender can then review the evidence and, in most cases, the sale moves forward again. We handle these jobs every week in Halifax.
Foam sprayed onto a cold roof deck stops the roof breathing. We cut it back, clear the cavity and check for cavity wall damp and roof timber rot. Once air can move again, the condensation problem usually clears within a few weeks.
If rot has started, cutting the foam out is only half the job. We expose the affected timbers, tell you exactly what needs treating or replacing, and leave the roof open so your chosen tradesman can get straight to work.
Closed cell foam in a sealed loft can push roof space temperatures up and cook the timbers. We remove the foam, restore ventilation at the eaves, and leave the loft ready for a breathable insulation system that will not trap heat.
We cover Halifax and the surrounding West Yorkshire villages, from the terraces around Halifax City Centre out to Hebden Bridge and Todmorden. Stone-built houses, slate roofs and older loft conversions are our bread and butter. If you are looking for spray foam removal Halifax near me and you are anywhere on this list, we can get to you.

Most Halifax jobs run £450 to £2,800, with a full roof and cavity removal reaching £6,500. The price depends on how much foam there is, how hard it has set and whether the timbers need any treatment. We survey first and quote a fixed figure, so you know the cost before we start cutting.
The best firm is the one that surveys the roof properly, quotes a fixed price and shows you photographs of the timbers when the foam is out. We have been doing this in Halifax since 2022, we are CHAS and Constructionline registered, and we work to PAS 2035. Check reviews and ask for evidence, whoever you choose.

You need it if the foam was sprayed onto a cold roof deck, if a lender or surveyor has flagged it, or if you have damp and condensation in the loft. Not every roof needs a full strip-out. We will tell you honestly whether yours can stay, needs cutting back, or has to come out completely.
