What kinds of help are available
Support for energy upgrades in the UK falls into a few broad types: grants towards replacing a fossil fuel boiler with a low-carbon system such as a heat pump; funded insulation and heating upgrades for households on lower incomes or certain benefits; local council schemes, which open and close as funding allows; and loans and tax reliefs on some energy-saving products.
Some schemes cover Great Britain as a whole, while England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland also run their own, and the rules change often. That is why we check what is open for your property now, rather than relying on a list that may be out of date.
Who usually qualifies
Eligibility depends on the scheme. The usual factors are whether you own the property, rent it or are a landlord; how the home is heated now; its energy performance certificate (EPC) rating; household income or benefits; and sometimes which council area you live in.
Some schemes have no income test at all and are open to any homeowner replacing a fossil fuel heating system. Others require a minimum level of insulation before they will fund heating. We check all of this for you.
How our free eligibility check works
We ask a few questions: your postcode, whether you own or rent, how the home is heated, its EPC rating if you know it, and, only where a scheme requires it, details of income or benefits. Then we tell you in writing what you are likely to qualify for, what it would cover and what you would still pay.
If you go ahead, we gather the evidence, complete the forms, submit the application and track it until there is a decision. Checking is free and we charge no fee for handling the application.
How long it takes
A typical decision takes two to six weeks, depending on the scheme. Some schemes won't fund work that has already started, so we don't begin installation until any approval the scheme requires is in place. We tell you the timeline at the start, so nothing is booked before the funding is confirmed.
How to avoid grant scams
Genuine schemes are published on gov.uk or by the devolved governments, and you should never have to pay an upfront fee to apply for a government grant. Be wary of cold callers promising that everything is free, or companies using official-sounding scheme names they have no connection to.
We don't cold call. If you are unsure whether an offer is genuine, ask us, or check the scheme on gov.uk before sharing any personal details.

Government grants: common questions
Do you charge to check if I am eligible for a grant?
No. The eligibility check is free and we charge no fee for handling the application. You only pay for the work itself, after any grant has been taken off.
What happens if I don't qualify?
We tell you clearly, show you what the work would cost without a grant and explain any other options, such as finance or doing the work in stages.
Can landlords and tenants apply for energy grants?
Often, yes. Some schemes are open to landlords and to tenants with the landlord's permission. Eligibility depends on the scheme, so we check it for your property.
Will a grant cover the whole cost?
Sometimes. Some schemes fully fund work for eligible lower-income households, while others pay a fixed amount towards the cost. We show you exactly what you would still pay before you commit.
How long does a grant application take?
A typical decision takes two to six weeks. We don't start work that the scheme needs to approve first, so your install date is set once funding is confirmed.
