New and improved grants for improving your home
The SEAI has just announced an improved grants programme for energy-efficient works, including insulation and renewable heating systems. Under the Better Energy Homes scheme, the government are offering bigger grant amounts across a range of measures, in order to help and encourage homeowners to improve their homes. Measures with improved grants include attic insulation, wall insulation and heat pumps. The age band of eligible homes has also changed and going forward, insulation grants will be available to all homes that were built before 2011 (changed from 2006) and renewable energy grants will be available to all homes built before 2021 (changed from 2011). This brings a lot of newer homes into the mix for grant eligibility and will certainly be good news for many homeowners.
The deep retrofit programme also sees an increase in funding but this is not available to all homes. This scheme is managed through a one-stop-shop service provider like ourselves but is generally only suitable for groups of smaller or similar homes such as those in housing estates or towns. One-off housing, whilst not strictly ineligible, are often unsuitable to this scheme due to the complexity and cost of many of these projects.

I had a pellet boiler installed incorrectly and after much searching, came across Comfort Solutions. While they didn't install the boiler initially, they re-installed the boiler correctly and corrected everything. I was not only impressed with the installation, but by the back-up and service afterward. I have no reservation in... Read more

We were very happy with the service that Comfort Solutions provided for us - our apartment is now properly ventilated to the correct standards which means that we've been able to rent it out again with a view to living there ourselves eventually.

We are delighted with the work Comfort Solutions did in our home. The attic and cavity insulation has made the place much more cosy and the Lunos ventilation system has greatly improved the air quality. We never see condensation on our bathroom mirrors anymore!

The advice I received from Comfort Solutions was excellent. We opted for the cavity wall filling and loft insulation. Quality of materials and workmanship I couldn't fault.

Fergus Mc Manamon is an excellent service provider. I particularly like his attention to detail. When he says he will turn up, he does; When he says he will come back with a price or a report, he does; And he completes his work to the highest possible standard.

External Insulation, Loft insulation, DPC
Our little house by the sea in Co Mayo was a dream, but the damp was a nightmare. I looked into external insulation first as a solution for the damp which was breaking out on all the internal walls. The walls were concrete, there was condensation... Read more
