Updated 12 November 2026. Prices are published UK estimates, not a quote from us.

The short answer

Spray foam removal cost per square metre

Guides disagree, partly because they measure different jobs and partly because foam type and thickness change the work.

Common questions

How long does spray foam removal take?

MyJobQuote (17 September 2026) says a small loft takes one to two days, most jobs take one to three days, and larger or more damaged areas can take five days or more.

Is closed cell or open cell foam more expensive to remove?

Closed cell. Best Builders (2026) gives £40 to £90 per m² for closed cell and £25 to £55 per m² for open cell. MyJobQuote (17 September 2026) gives £30 to £50 and £20 to £30.

Do I need new insulation after removal?
