Spray foam removed. Your roof independently inspected.

INDEPENDENT FINAL SURVEY · INCLUDED WITH EVERY REMOVAL When the removal contractor finishes removing the foam, an independent professional assesses the accessible roof and timbers. Every EvoHome removal includes this final survey, with a written report setting out what was found and any further action needed. Our work is documented.

The independent professional provides their own assessment. An extract from an independent timber survey. Identifying details have been removed. See an actual report The full example contains moisture findings and recommendations for repair, drying and monitoring. Its findings apply to the property inspected; it is not evidence that the follow-up work was completed.

Open the redacted report (PDF) An inspection needs a roof it can see. Removing the foam should leave the accessible roof structure available for assessment. Remaining build-up can obstruct inspection; aggressive scraping can damage the materials underneath. The removal contractor works carefully around the rafters, underlay, eaves and services.

We plan the independent inspection before reinstatement covers relevant areas. The surveyor records what they could inspect and identifies any access limitations or further checks needed. Accessible timbers and underlay Inspection planned before covering Limitations recorded in the report Exposed rafters and underlay at the roof ridge after removal.

Roof and timber condition The condition of the accessible areas within the agreed brief, supported by relevant photographs and observations. Moisture and defects Moisture findings where assessed, signs of deterioration and defects that need attention or further investigation.

Recommended action Any repairs, further investigation, drying, monitoring or follow-up inspection the professional considers necessary. The inspection is specified for your property. A report can identify a concern as well as record satisfactory findings. Plan the inspection as part of the job. Before work We establish the purpose of the report, any written lender requirements and the appropriate independent professional.

During removal We document what is uncovered, discuss any change to the agreed work and preserve the access needed for inspection. At the final survey The independent professional assesses the accessible roof within their brief and records the findings, limitations and recommendations. If the report recommends more work, we help you address it.

We talk through the findings with you and agree any repairs or further investigation. The independent professional advises on any follow-up checks. Keep those records with the original report so the history of the roof remains clear. Questions about the independent final survey Is the final survey optional? No. Every EvoHome spray foam removal includes an independent professional final survey.

It is part of the agreed work, separate from our photographs, video and work notes. Who carries out the inspection? An appropriately qualified professional independent of the removal work. We arrange the inspection brief for the property and confirm any written lender requirements before booking. Does it have to be a RICS surveyor?

Where a lender specifies a RICS-qualified surveyor or a RICS-regulated firm, that requirement should be confirmed before the inspection is commissioned. Other work may call for a suitably qualified independent specialist. EvoHome arranges the inspection; the independent professional carries it out and issues their report.

Do I need a survey before requesting a removal quote? No. Contact us first. Pre-work independent advice or a survey is arranged where appropriate to the property and concern. The independent final survey remains included after every completed removal job arranged through EvoHome. Does the report guarantee a mortgage or the future life of the roof?

No. It records the condition observed and the professional’s findings within the inspection scope. It can inform decisions about the roof and further work. Lending and insurance decisions remain with the relevant provider. Can I see an example before deciding? Yes. The redacted report linked on this page is an actual report from a previous property.
