Tools & methods
Tools and Methods We Use
Purpose-built equipment, used by trained technicians, so the job is done accurately the first time.
Dry Ice Blasting Machine
Used to remove foam from delicate timbers without causing damage. The dry ice pellets freeze the foam, making it brittle and easy to lift.
Spray Foam Removal Saw
A specialist saw for cutting through thick closed cell foam. It allows precise removal without cutting into roof timbers.
Oscillating Multi-Tool
For detailed work around cables, pipes and tight corners. It lets us remove foam accurately where larger tools cannot reach.
Industrial Vacuum and Air Scrubber
We use industrial vacuums to capture dust and debris, and air scrubbers to clean the air. This keeps the work area safe and clean.
Negative Air Machine
Creates negative pressure in the work zone to stop dust escaping into the rest of the house. Essential for a clean, controlled removal.
Reciprocating Saw and Hand Scraper
For cutting and scraping foam from flat surfaces and edges. We use these where precision matters and power tools are too aggressive.
