Retrofit & Net Zero

End-to-end PAS2035 retrofit coordination, Home Energy Model assessment and fabric-first decarbonisation strategies. From assessment to installation, we ensure every project is compliant, fundable and delivers genuine energy performance improvements.

What We Do

Retrofit that delivers real outcomes, not just compliance.

We provide end-to-end PAS2035 retrofit coordination — ensuring every project is compliant, fundable and delivers genuine energy performance improvements for residents. From whole-dwelling assessment through to post-installation monitoring, we manage the full retrofit lifecycle.

With the Home Energy Model (HEM) replacing EPC methodology from 2027, we assess properties against four headline metrics — fabric, heating, smart readiness and energy cost — so you can plan retrofit investment against the standard that will define the next decade of housing regulation.

Methodology

The PAS2035 retrofit process.

PAS2035 is the retrofit standard that ensures energy efficiency improvements are properly designed, installed and monitored. We follow the full five-stage process to guarantee compliance and performance.

Methodology

01

Retrofit Assessment

Whole-dwelling assessment including fabric, ventilation, heating and energy systems — the foundation of every PAS2035 project.

02

Improvement Plan

Medium-term improvement options evaluated against HEM metrics, EPC targets and funding eligibility to prioritise measures.

03

Design & Specification

Fabric-first specification with U-value targets, ventilation strategy and heating system design ready for installation.

04

Oversight & Monitoring

Installation oversight, resident engagement and post-retrofit monitoring to verify performance and PAS2035 compliance.

Compliance Standard
01 — Retrofit Assessment
02 — Improvement Plan
03 — Design & Specification
04 — Installation Oversight
05 — Monitoring & Evaluation

All retrofit work complies with PAS2035:2023, TrustMark requirements and relevant Building Regulations.

Outcomes

What you get back.

Decarbonisation

CO₂ reduction modelling with fabric-first measures that deliver genuine, lasting carbon savings — not just paper improvements.

HEM Readiness

Home Energy Model headline metrics — fabric, heating, smart readiness and cost — benchmarked against 2027 targets.

Funding Secured

SHDF, ECO and grant application support that maximises funding eligibility and keeps projects commercially viable.

Resident Engagement

Full resident engagement throughout the retrofit process — essential for PAS2035 compliance and real-world performance.
