An expanded town full of trussed roofs
Few towns in the south changed as much as Basingstoke in the twentieth century. A compact market town became an expanded town in the 1960s and 70s, leaving ring after ring of estates: Popley, Brighton Hill, Buckskin and Winklebury from the expansion years, Chineham, Hatch Warren and Beggarwood from the 1980s onwards, and large new-build areas around the edges today. Trussed-rafter roofs dominate, with thin timbers close together, so foam is slow to remove because every web and chord needs brushing. Older stock in the centre and in villages like Old Basing, Oakley and Overton has cut roofs and older timbers.
Why we don't rush a trussed roof
The foam is peeled off by hand, then each timber is wire brushed individually until the wood is clean. Truss timbers are slender and the nail plates at the joints are easily damaged, so avoiding power tools and solvents is the right call. Everything we remove is bagged and taken off site.
Working to a Basingstoke exchange date
Basingstoke's commuter market moves quickly and survey deadlines are tight. If spray foam has been flagged on a homebuyer report or valuation, we can usually quote from photos and a rough roof measurement and schedule the removal around your exchange date.

Only the time it takes. There are more timbers to clean, so we allow for that, but the method is the same and the result is a roof a surveyor can inspect properly.
