We're pleased to announce the launch of Wates Retrofit, a new stamp of quality that signals our commitment to Net Zero carbon and to supporting those facing fuel poverty from unprecedented rising energy costs.
The launch of Wates Retrofit comes two years after our Living Space team began working with social landlords and housing associations, in partnership with Energy Specifics, to retrofit ageing housing stock. The fully PAS 2035 compliant service has so far seen:
- 531 homes fitted with energy efficiency measures
- 856 installations currently in progress
- over 1,000 currently in the assessment and design phase
- 3 @BrentCouncil properties take part in the pilot scheme
- 80-home contract with @NorthamptonPartnershipHomes
- 178-home contract with @StevenageBoroughCouncil
- 50-home contract with @LondonBoroughofEnfield
"With the launch of Wates Retrofit, we make a pledge to elevate our retrofit service for both domestic and non-domestic clients. We will continue to work collaboratively with them to navigate grant and funding streams, ensure compliance and connect them with our specialist supply chain partners. Our aim is to help our clients reduce their carbon emissions, but within this vital objective is another pressing issue; families are facing rising energy costs. Helping to address this makes our retrofit work even more important to our business." - David Morgan, Executive Managing Director of Wates Property Services
