Home Energy Plans
Bespoke guidance for a future-ready home
Need help boosting your home's energy efficiency, reducing its carbon footprint, and saving money? Our home energy plan makes it easy by providing the step-by-step changes needed to set your home up for a sustainable future.
The plans are tailored to assist those living in energy inefficient homes, homes within conservation areas, or homes that are not connected to the gas grid. The objective is to make whole house retrofitting easier, allowing accessibility to anyone facing these challenges.

How does it work?
-
Prior to carrying out a full retrofit survey of your property, we will deliver a package of pre-visit checks, looking at:
the Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) of your property if available, and offering one if not
undertaking a digital survey, looking at things such as the suitability of your property for Solar PV, outside positioning of Air Source Heat Pumps and more
We will check for existing archetypes that may resemble your home and could offer useful knowledge on your property
The pre-checks streamline the home visit, allowing us to build on its results in the retrofit survey and customise it to your property.

We will schedule a time that suits you, for a full retrofit assessment of your home.
During the home visit, a retrofit surveyor will carry out a full home assessment, looking at details specific to the conservation and retrofit of your property. This may include:
The condition of the property and whether energy efficiency/clean heating upgrades could be paired with property maintenance to reduce costs
Discussion on timelines that suit you and your home
An in-depth assessment of costs and local up-to-date knowledge on prices and suppliers, plus grants and subsidies
Advice on the logical order to carry out works and the priorities based on costs, financial and carbon savings
-
You will receive a full, detailed report which has been tailored to your property, following a retrofit assessment of your home that enables the key metrics to be determined, including the pre and post retrofit heat loss, running costs and EPC rating.
The plan also considers the most appropriate recommendations for insulation, as well as renewable systems like solar PV panels and low carbon heating like heat pumps.
Specific advice for heritage homes and guidance on government funding is included in the plans.
