FLAT ROOF
INSULATION
Under the official Government backed ECO4 scheme, you can get FREE home energy improvements!
Is your home equipped with a flat roof? Did you know that upgrading your flat roof with insulation could save you up to £355 on your energy bills annually? At EcoGrants4u, we’re here to help you maximize your home’s energy efficiency while enjoying a more comfortable living space. Let’s explore why flat roof insulation is essential and how you can benefit from our grant programs.
A significant portion of the heat lost in your home escapes through the roof, especially in properties with flat roofs lacking proper insulation. By upgrading your flat roof with insulation, you not only reduce energy bills but also enhance your home’s thermal performance. Plus, you’ll enjoy the added benefit of a new roof covering, ensuring longevity and durability.
Flat roof insulation involves installing a layer of insulation on top of your existing roof, creating what’s known as a Warm Roof. Our process includes laying insulation of approximately 120-150mm over the existing roof felt, followed by the installation of a plywood deck and a new weatherproof membrane. This comprehensive approach ensures optimal insulation and weather protection for your home.
Proper ventilation is crucial when installing insulation to prevent issues like condensation and mould. As part of our service, we’ll bring your home’s ventilation up to the latest standards and install additional ventilation where necessary. This ensures a healthy indoor environment while maximizing the benefits of insulation.
To qualify for a free insulation grant, you (or your tenant if you’re a landlord) must be in receipt of qualifying benefits such as Child Benefit, Employment & Support Allowance, Pension Credit, Universal Credit, and more. Additionally, households with a combined gross income below £31,000 per year may be eligible under the ECO4 Flex scheme. Our team will guide you through the eligibility criteria and application process to ensure you receive the support you need.
Landlords must comply with Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES), requiring rented properties to meet minimum energy efficiency ratings. Our services can help landlords achieve compliance with these standards, ensuring properties meet Band ‘C’ ratings and avoid potential fines.
At EcoGrants4u, we’re dedicated to helping homeowners and landlords improve energy efficiency and comfort through flat roof insulation. Our experienced team will assess your eligibility, handle the grant application process, and complete the insulation installation efficiently and professionally.
