Check EligibilityEnergy Efficiency Support Across Manchester
Manchester has one of the UK's oldest housing stocks, with a significant share of pre-1945 terraces, solid-wall properties and mid-century semis that struggle with heat loss. Our local team surveys properties from Urmston and Trafford out to Salford, Stockport, Oldham and Wigan, helping households understand where insulation, heating and renewable measures will deliver the biggest savings.
We work with Manchester homeowners who want to lower their bills and raise property value, private tenants who need their landlord to meet EPC obligations, and landlords preparing portfolios for the proposed EPC C minimum standard by 2030. Where households meet Warm Homes Plan eligibility, many measures can be installed at little or no upfront cost.
Our office in Urmston (M41) means we respond quickly to surveys and installations across the M postcode area. All work is delivered through MCS, TrustMark and CHAS accredited partners, with guidance cross-referenced against the latest criteria on gov.uk and Ofgem.
