Why now?

Never has there been a better time to upgrade your home and improve its energy efficiency:-

Financial incentives

  • Reduced fuel bills will result from improving your home's energy efficiency.
  • Government Grants and Interest Free Loans provide upfront cash.
  • FIT (Feed-in-Tariff) enables you to be paid for the excess energy you generate.
  • Reduced VAT at 5% (reduced from 17.5%) applies to the cost of all work associated with energy efficiency upgrades, including labour.
  • Added value to the price of your home will be evident through improved EPC ratings and greater comfort and quality.
  • Safe Investment: Unlike most investments, a return on energy efficiency upgrades is guaranteed. Payback periods have been calculated for most upgrades, advising how long it will take for you to recoup the upfront cost through reduced fuel bills.
  • One final one ... you are future-proofing against likely future legislation such as tighter building regulations and carbon tax - and the sooner you upgrade, the more time you have to benefit.

Fuel dependence

As the price of fuel continues to rise, so does our dependence on it. Improving the energy efficiency of your home, or simply reducing your heat loss, and therefore your energy consumption reduces your dependence on fuel and provides you with security against future fuel price rises and volatility.

The Environment

Never has there been a more important time to make an impact. Governmental and intergovernmental panels have demonstrated their impotency in regulating human behaviour and activity affecting climate change, as we have seen from recent governmental policy and the failure of our representatives at the Copenhagen Protocol. Only with action from individuals, can changes be made.

Quality incentives

  • Accoustics - better insulation means better sound-proofing.
  • Comfort - improves well-being and better lifestyle.
  • Added Value to quality
