The department has recently published guidance on GOV.UK (Spray foam insulation: Remediation, Removal and Lending), which provides consumers with information and links to consumer support on spray foam. This also includes a list of lenders who are open to lending on properties with spray foam, subject to their own requirements. For more information:
