Room In Roof Insulation Grants

Your home could qualify for a Room In Roof Insulation grant to cover the full cost of having insulation installed by an accredited installer. If you are in receipt of a qualifying benefit, you should be eligible for a loft insulation grant. Grants are not available to council / social housing. We do not process grants for properties with gas boilers.

Who Pays For The Insulation?

The money to pay for Room In Roof Insulation comes from energy suppliers as part of a government scheme to reduce carbon emissions, known as the Energy Companies Obligation (ECO4). An initial survey is carried out by an approved installer, the installer completes the work on the approved property and the installer then invoices the utility companies for the grant amount.


If for any reason you don’t qualify for the full grant you could still qualify for a large contribution to the cost of the work, meaning a small amount is to be paid.

Who Can Apply?

Home owners and private tenants are entitled to grants, depending on their circumstances. For tenants will need written permission from the landlord before going ahead with the work, but we will take care of this for you.
