About Us

We had closed cell foam insulation removed from the loft by Lee from Britco. Lee was very punctual and updated us daily on the progress. The work was completed in the timescale quoted. We are extremely pleased with the high standard of work and the end result. We would not hesitate to contact Lee if we required any future work.

We used Britt and Co in a roof that had already been converted into a fully functioning room. This house was in the process of being sold, and to progress the sale, it required stripping out, and taking back to the original state which then needed bringing back up to current Building Regulations approval and certification sign off.

Britt & Co did an amazing job with the foam extraction and disposal. Lee in particular kept us up to date with progress on this project, advised us of any minor issues along the way, and was there also to explain to the RICS surveyor the process that he followed in order for the report to be produced.

The results speak for themselves. This room was restored back to a fully functioning and current building regulations compliant living space after Britt & Co.’s work, but without Lee’s hard work and attention to detail, it would have been a much harder and lengthy process.

The pictures show before and after, prior to reinstatement of the room as a bedroom again.

Were we happy with their services? 100%

I was very impressed by Lee’s commitment to doing an excellent job in adverse weather, -6°C. He was there on time, worked hard over 2 days, cleared all the mess and did a thorough job. He provided before and after photos with a report on the roof structure plus a 5-year guarantee.

He is a decent family man, not a cowboy and I would recommend him. My buyer went ahead with the sale having inspected the loft afterwards. Thank you, Lee.

In order to be able to secure an equity release agreement, some spray foam insulation needed to be removed from the inside of my parent’s roof. This work was completed to a very high standard and thereby enabling us to secure a valid survey so that the equity agreement could proceed.

Lee and his team were polite, efficient and informative throughout and ensured that all waste was removed and disposed. I would have no hesitation in recommending Britt and Co to anyone faced with a similar situation.

We found spray foam in the ceiling and loft spaces of a house we intended to purchase. The owner had been conned into having it installed and our surveyor told us there was little to no chance we would be able to obtain a mortgage unless it was removed or the roof was replaced. The latter would have cost over £50,000. Removal was far more cost effective.

However, finding a reputable company to do it was difficult. I must have made enquiries with 5 or 6 companies which I found online, all of which didn’t seem right. Then I came across Britt & Co, which was featured in an article in The Times about the problems caused by spray foam insulation.

I called Lee, who came to visit the property on a Saturday morning in the run up to Christmas 2024 to provide a quote, which was very reasonable given the extent of the work involved, which included the removal of some plasterboard ceilings. Based on meeting Lee and the thoroughness of his quote, we decided to proceed and the job was booked in for early January 2025.

We were under a great deal of pressure as we already had builders booked in to start renovation work at the end of January and there was little time to remove the spray foam, secure the mortgage and complete the purchase. Lee and his team were efficient, tidy and effective. They arrived on time each day and got straight to work. Lee doesn’t only remove the spray foam, he also wire brushes the wooden beams and rafters, as well as the felt. This produces a really effective and clean finish.

The quote also included disposal of the spray foam, of which there was a lot. Lee doesn’t ask for reviews until you have secured a mortgage.

Our job took around 2 and a half weeks. Lee finished on a Wednesday. The following day the bank sent round a surveyor to conduct a valuation. He was amazed at how effective the removal was. The bank received the valuation report that afternoon and immediately approved our mortgage.

We now own the house. If you need to have spray foam removed I can strongly recommend Lee and Britt & Co.

Lee and his team did an excellent job removing the closed foam insulation from the roof of our parents’ house prior to its sale. They are professional, reliable and hard working. Lee visited before work began, updated us regularly with the progress, which was very reassuring and kept the house clean and tidy all the way through. Very pleased with the final result. Lee organised the repair of one beam, provided a certificate and report and all of that for a competitive price and friendly service. We have no hesitation in recommending this company. Thanks Lee and team!
