What happens next
If your application is successful, we will pass your details to our appointed contractor, who will arrange a retrofit assessment of your property. The retrofit assessment will identify if your home is suitable for works such as:
- loft insulation
- cavity wall insulation
- external wall Insulation
- air source heat pumps
- solar panels
Once a retrofit assessment is carried out, there will be additional visits from the installers who will quote for the measures directly to the Nuneaton and Bedworth Council. We fund 100% of the works for owner occupiers.
Some properties may be able to have multiple measures installed. Once works are installed we will carry out a further energy performance certificate at the property to measure the improvements for the fund provider.
