WHY mywarmhome.co.uk

Retrofit is not a shopping list.

A heat pump, insulation or solar system can be a good investment, but only when it suits the building around it.

mywarmhome.co.uk helps homeowners look at the whole property first: construction, defects, insulation, ventilation, heat loss, heating systems and the order in which improvements should happen.

INDEPENDENT HELP

Advice before, during and after the work.

Retrofit assessment

Understand construction, condition, ventilation and current energy performance.

Whole-house planning

Put suitable measures into a sensible order before committing to expensive work.

EPC & heat-pump advice

Get a clearer picture of efficiency, heat loss, emitters, controls and low-temperature heating.

Independent quality inspection

Concerned about completed work? We can identify visible defects and explain what should happen next. Before arranging an inspection, tell us the property location, the measures installed and your concerns. We will confirm whether the work is within our service area, the inspection scope, fee, access needed and report before you commit. Keep the design, photographs, commissioning records, warranties and installer correspondence.

My home is cold. What should I check first?

Start with the problem you are experiencing. You do not need to choose an insulation product or heating system before understanding the cause.

The heating has stopped

Check only the normal user controls, timer and thermostat. Record the boiler or heat-pump model, any fault code and whether hot water still works. Follow the exact appliance’s user instructions; do not remove covers or repeatedly reset a recurring fault. Read the safe boiler-fault checks.

One room is colder than the others

Note when it happens and whether the radiator or other emitter warms up. Check normal room controls and look for draughts, visible gaps, leaks or cold surfaces. Emitter output, circulation, controls and local heat loss may all need checking. Explore the heating-system checks.

The whole home loses warmth quickly

Look at its construction, condition, insulation, ventilation and heating together. Repair leaks and defects before covering them. An EPC offers useful information, but is not a condition survey or a heating design. Understand your EPC and plan the whole home.

The home is damp, or heating costs prevent adequate warmth

Follow the damp and mould guide and check funding and support. If you rent, report heating failures, leaks and damp promptly to your landlord and keep dated photographs and correspondence. Use the appropriate emergency service for an immediate danger; an online enquiry is not an emergency response.

Ask for independent advice about your home. Include the property type, what is happening, when it started and any relevant work already completed.

THE HOMEOWNER HANDBOOK

Four parts of the same home.

01

Insulation

Walls, roofs, floors, U-values, detailing and moisture risk.

02

Heating

Boilers, heat pumps, radiators, flow temperatures and controls.

Airflow, extraction, airtightness, moisture and healthy indoor air.

04

Renewables

Solar PV, battery storage, heat pumps and emerging technologies.

20+

years of practical industry experience

EXPERIENCE MATTERS

Advice backed by thousands of installation inspections.

mywarmhome.co.uk is built on experience that spans domestic EPCs, heating design, heating installation, insulation, heat pumps, government retrofit schemes, technical monitoring, audit and quality assurance. We no longer install measures, so the homeowner and the long-term result stay at the centre of the advice.
