About the
ECO4 Scheme
ECO4 is the fourth phase of the Energy Company Obligation (ECO) scheme, which is a government-funded initiative that aims to make UK homes more energy-efficient and tackle fuel poverty. The ECO4 scheme is set to run from 2022 to 2026.
The ECO4 scheme offers obligated suppliers, manufacturers, and installers various routes to deploy new energy efficiency and heating products. such as:
boilers
loft or cavity wall installation
storage heaters
solar panels

Cavity Wall Insulation
Cavity wall insulation involves filling the gap between the internal and external walls of a property. The cavity should be at least 50mm wide to allow sufficient insulation material to be installed. The insulation material (usually mineral wool or foam) serves two purposes:
- Keeps cold air out, preventing heat loss.
- Retains warm air inside the property, improving energy efficiency.
ECO4 focuses on improving the energy efficiency of walls as a primary measure. This means that insulation is a key focus. ECO4 aims to benefit households most in need of energy efficiency upgrades. If you meet the eligibility criteria, you can take advantage of a cavity wall insulation grant.
Loft Insulation
Loft insulation involves adding a layer of insulating material to the loft space (the area between the roof and the ceiling). The primary goal is to prevent heat from escaping through the roof, keeping your home warmer and more energy-efficient.
ECO4 focuses on improving the energy efficiency of homes, and loft insulation is a crucial part of this effort.The scheme aims to enhance the fabric of buildings (known as a “fabric-first” approach) before addressing other measures.If your property has an EPC rating of D or lower, loft insulation becomes a priority.
Loft insulation significantly contributes to energy savings, reduces heating costs, and enhances overall comfort. If you meet the criteria, consider taking advantage of this energy-efficient upgrade!
Solid Wall Insulation
Solid wall insulation (also known as external wall insulation or internal wall insulation) aims to improve the energy efficiency of properties with solid walls. Unlike cavity walls (which have an air gap), solid walls lack this gap, making them less energy-efficient.
Solid wall insulation involves adding an insulating layer to the internal or external surface of the walls.
ECO4 emphasises improving the fabric of buildings, including solid walls. Approximately 450,000 homes are expected to receive solid wall insulation upgrades under ECO4. Eligibility criteria apply, including EPC ratings and income thresholds. If you qualify, solid wall insulation could save you up to £410 per year on energy bills for a semi-detached house.
Underfloor Insulation
Underfloor insulation aims to reduce heat loss and energy wastage through the floor of your home. It involves adding insulating material beneath the floorboards or within the floor structure.
Properly installed underfloor insulation can significantly reduce heat loss, leading to lower energy bills. It helps maintain a consistent indoor temperature. Underfloor insulation can last up to 25 years or even longer if correctly installed.
If you’re interested in underfloor insulation,, contact us for an assessment of your eligibility and explore the potential savings for your home.

During the survey (which typically takes 10-15 minutes), the surveyor will assess your home’s energy efficiency measures. The survey is designed to be minimally intrusive and aims to identify the most suitable upgrades for your property.
Installation Works:
After identifying the measures that can be implemented, we’ll coordinate the installation works with your approval. Most installation projects are completed in less than 3 days on average. Our goal is to maximise convenience while enhancing your home’s energy efficiency.
Our team will handle the ECO4 Grant application process for you. Since ECO4 funding covers most of the cost, you typically won't need to pay anything upfront for approved upgrades.

FAQs About Our Services
Do you take any deposit?
We require no deposit but require payment on completion of satisfied works.
Does it cost anything for a quote?
All quotations are free, valid for three months and completely non-obligatory.
What kind of insulation do you use?
We use various system designs, Loft Knauf earthwool – Underfloor Knauf OmniFit and Earthwool – Internal Wall and Room in roof we use Superfoil system design.
Does insulation make a difference?
Loft insulation is the most cost effective energy saving measure you can install in your home and makes a huge difference to the heat loss in your property. Underfloor insulation is a simple yet very effective way to prevent heat loss and can be felt instantly. This will allow your home to hold its heat for much longer once your heating goes off.
How long does an insulation job take?
A full detail of works will be carried out on site with a trained surveyor who will also estimate the duration of works.
What happens if any of my pipes or electrics are damaged during installation?
Although rare, accidents can happen when working in dark and confined spaces. If anything like this does happen, you can rest assured that we will rectify the issue or pay for a professional to attend if required giving you complete peace of mind.
How long does the insulation last for?
Loft and underfloor insulation will last for at least 50 years if undisturbed.
Do I get a certificate of completion?
We provide you with a certificate showing the work has been done professionally as well as pictures of all the different areas that we have insulated. If you provide these to the surveyor doing your home report/EPC they will add the measures and this will improve your homes energy rating.
Does the insulation help with noise?
Our standard insulation will help with noise entering from below or outside your home but we do also install specific high performance soundproofing insulation in floors and ceilings if this is your main concern.

What is your
EPS rating?
The Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating is a measure of how energy-efficient a property is. The rating is based on the difference in expected annual energy bills between the starting SAP rating of the domestic premises (pre-retrofit) and its finishing SAP rating (post-retrofit)
The EPC rating ranges from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient). The average rating for a property in England and Wales is D.
The ECO4 scheme requires that properties have an EPC rating of E, F, or G to be eligible for funding.
