Improve your existing home energy-efficiency with our bespoke retrofit services. From upgrading insulation to installing renewable energy systems, we tailor our approach to meet your home, your needs and your budget.

How We Can Help

Many of the homes we work with are cold, inefficient, or no longer fit the way people live today. Others need more space, better layouts, or a clearer plan for meeting energy and climate targets.

We help homeowners navigate this by providing clear advice, thoughtful design, and a structured process whether you’re planning a modest renovation or a full retrofit.

Our approach combines:

  • fabric-first energy improvements

  • natural and low-carbon materials

  • careful consideration of older and traditional buildings

  • practical solutions that work within real budgets

The result is a home that is warmer, cheaper to run, healthier to live in, and futureproof.
