As a foam contractor and consultant in the industry for more than thirty years, Mr. Fennell has quality controlled and remediated hundreds of foam installations. Foam problems can evolve from a number of sources, and recognizing and verifying these sources is a significant part of what remediation is all about. It is important to determine if a foam problem was caused by the chemistry, chemical storage and handling, machine processing, poor installation technique, lack of quality assurance protocols, inadequate followup during the cure period, or building science issues. Following is information about the background of these problems, their typical causes, and services available to assure a quality installation for your projects.
Why are there problems with foam installations?
In some cases, the removal of good-quality foam is required when it has been damaged by fire, flood, or for another non-quality related reason.
