Dunnington sits east of York on the A166 corridor with a mix of 1950s brick semis and larger detached houses on streets like York Road and Church Lane. Many of these properties received spray foam loft insulation in the 2000s that now traps moisture against the clay-tiled roofs common here. Purecore Spray Foam Insulate removes that material without damaging original timbers, working from our 48 Coney Street base with 24/7 availability for urgent jobs.
The village's narrow lanes and shared driveways mean our team often parks on the verge or coordinates with neighbours before bringing in extraction equipment. Frequent Yorkshire rain and the flat surrounding farmland keep lofts damper than in central York, so removal includes checking for hidden damp patches before any new insulation goes back in. We focus on Dunnington properties specifically because the housing stock and access patterns differ from the city terraces we also serve.
Homeowners near Dunnington Primary School or the sports club regularly call when previous foam starts shedding flakes into living spaces. Our process keeps disruption low on these quiet residential roads while clearing the material completely.

Spray Foam Removal in Dunnington — Local Notes
- •Mid-century brick homes along York Road and Common Road often have spray foam that has bonded to original rafters, requiring careful scraping to avoid timber damage in these older roofs.
- •Winter ground conditions around Dunnington can turn soft after rain, so we lay boards before moving heavy vacuums and cutters onto gardens or shared drives.
- •Narrow access between properties near St Nicholas Church means we stage equipment on the road and carry tools by hand to prevent blocking the single-lane sections.
