Ambitious retrofit on a budget: ex-1950s semi-detached | Futureproof Cumbria

This retrofit case study shows how our independent advisers supported the retrofit of a 1950s home with cavity walls. The homeowner extended their budget with a government grant and carried out some work themselves, using tradespeople for specialist work. Using the 'fabric first' approach, wall, floor, and loft insulation were installed, air tightness measures inmplemented, new windows fitted and coal fire replaced with a woodburner. The installation of an Air Source Heat Pump supported by the Boiler Upgrade Grant and new doors are the next steps. The resident was surprised how much warmer the house became, even before the installation of a heat pump, and praised the advice from our experts. They said the advice they received outlined funding opportunities and avoided mistakes through the project. Subscribe for an update on this retrofit project coming soon!
