Retrofit Assessment
ECO Home UK: The Trusted Experts in Retrofit Assessments
What Is a Retrofit Assessment?
A professional Retrofit Assessment provides a blueprint for improving your home’s energy efficiency. It analyses your current insulation, heating, and ventilation systems, identifying areas for improvement. This personalised plan can help you prioritise upgrades, like new insulation, for significant cost savings on your energy bills while enhancing your home’s comfort and environmental footprint.
Your home’s “shell” (walls, roof, windows, and floors) plays a crucial role in energy consumption. At ECO Home UK, we act as architectural detectives, identifying areas for improvement and implementing targeted solutions with precision:
Loft Insulation:
Adding layers of high-performance insulation to your loft space significantly reduces heat loss through the roof, a major source of energy waste. We analyse factors like existing insulation type and recommend the optimal solution for maximum efficiency.
Cavity Wall Insulation:
For properties with cavity walls, we employ specialised techniques to inject insulating material into the gap between the external walls, creating a powerful barrier against heat transfer. We prioritise minimally disruptive methods and ensure no damage to your property.
Solid Wall Insulation:
For solid wall properties, we explore various solutions, including internal and external insulation applications. Our experts consider factors like aesthetics, desired insulation levels, and budget constraints to recommend the most suitable approach.
Underfloor Insulation:
Especially crucial for draughty ground floors, underfloor insulation prevents heat from escaping downwards. We analyse your floor construction and recommend the most effective installation method, ensuring a seamless and long- lasting solution.
Air Source Heat Pumps:
These innovative pumps extract heat from the outside air, providing a clean and efficient heating source for your home. Our experts analyse your climate, property size, and heating requirements to recommend the most effective air source heat pump model and capacity.
Solar Panels:
Generate your own electricity with a roof-mounted solar panel system, reducing reliance on the grid and contributing to a cleaner future. Our team conducts a comprehensive solar suitability assessment, analysing factors like roof orientation, shading, and projected energy generation to design a customised solar panel system that maximises your energy independence.

Retrofit Assessments and ECO 4
Many homeowners considering insulation upgrades can benefit from ECO 4, a government scheme launched in April 2022 and running until March 2026. This initiative aims to invest £4 billion in energy efficiency improvements, helping millions of homes across the UK become greener and more affordable to heat. A qualified Retrofit Assessment is a crucial step in determining your home’s eligibility for ECO 4 grants, potentially reducing the cost of insulation installations and other energy-saving measures like boiler replacements or heat pumps!
