EBR-01 Accredited Contractor

Spray Foam Removal Certificate

The EBR-01 is the industry-standard certificate mortgage lenders require after spray foam removal. Without it, your mortgage will remain declined even after removal.

Revive Maintenance is a fully accredited EBR-01 issuing contractor. Every removal job includes your EBR-01 certificate — accepted by all major UK lenders.

What Is the EBR-01 Certificate?

The EBR-01 (Evidence of Building Remediation) is the UK industry-standard document confirming that spray foam insulation has been professionally removed from a residential property. It is required by virtually all mainstream UK mortgage lenders before they will approve or reinstate a mortgage application on a previously spray-foam-affected property.

The certificate can only be issued by an accredited spray foam removal contractor after completing the following:

Full professional removal of all spray foam from the loft space
Structural assessment of all roof timbers following removal
Confirmation that no foam residue remains on the structure
Written report on the structural condition of the property
Contractor certification and insurance documentation

Once issued, the EBR-01 certificate is submitted to your mortgage lender alongside your application. The lender's valuer then reassesses the property, and — provided the structural report is satisfactory — the mortgage proceeds.

Without the Certificate

  • • Mortgage lender cannot approve application
  • • Even after foam removal — no certificate = no mortgage
  • • Property cannot be remortgaged
  • • Equity release remains blocked
  • • Property sale may still fall through
