UFFI (Urea Formaldehyde) Removal by the Experts
Urea Formaldehyde Foam Insulation (UFFI) was fitted in thousands of UK homes during the 1970s and 80s. Today, it’s one of the most problematic insulation types. We specialise in the safe removal of failed UFFI, helping to protect your property from damp, mould, and survey issues.
Why UFFI is a Problem?
UFFI absorbs and traps moisture which can lead to damp and mould. Degrades to dust at end of product lifecycle creating voids within the cavity. Surveyors and lenders often flag UFFI as a major defect.
Our UFFI Removal Process
​
Removing Urea Formaldehyde Foam Insulation is a specialist task that requires the right equipment, trained staff, and accreditation.
