Retrofit / PAS 2035
Comprehensive energy retrofit services designed to meet PAS 2035 standards and qualify for government funding
What is PAS 2035?
PAS 2035 is a British Publicly Available Specification that provides a framework for the high-quality energy retrofitting of domestic buildings in the UK. Introduced in 2019 to address poor standards in the energy efficiency sector, it is mandatory for publicly funded retrofit projects and ensures safe, sustainable energy improvements that deliver promised savings.
Key Features of PAS 2035
Whole-House Approach
Requires a holistic view of the property, considering building fabric, occupancy, environment, and homeowner goals. This prevents individual measures from being installed in isolation, avoiding problems like dampness or mould.
Quality & Safety Focus
Ensures retrofit projects are safe, sustainable, and deliver promised energy savings. Helps reduce the "performance gap" where expected energy savings are not achieved in practice.
Structured Process
Specifies a comprehensive, end-to-end process including assessment, design, installation, handover advice, and monitoring to ensure quality delivery and optimal results.
Specialised Roles
Introduces clearly defined roles including Retrofit Coordinator, Retrofit Assessor, and Retrofit Designer who work together to ensure quality delivery throughout the process.
Compliance for Funding
Adherence to PAS 2035 is required for government-backed programs such as ECO and Local Authority Delivery Schemes. Companies must be TrustMark accredited to demonstrate compliance.
The Complete PAS 2035 Process
My retrofit services follow the complete PAS 2035 framework to ensure your project meets all standards and qualifies for government funding. As an independent coordinator, I guide you through each stage:
1. Assessment & Survey
My Role: I conduct a comprehensive property assessment evaluating building fabric, ventilation, occupancy patterns, and environmental factors. I identify energy efficiency opportunities and potential risks, creating a detailed retrofit plan that meets PAS 2035 requirements and your specific needs.
2. Design & Specification
My Role: I create detailed designs and specifications for energy efficiency measures, ensuring all improvements work together effectively. I coordinate different measures to prevent conflicts, optimise performance, and ensure compliance with building regulations and PAS 2035 standards.
3. Installation Oversight
My Role: As your independent coordinator, I oversee the installation process covered by PAS 2030 standards. I ensure quality control, verify work meets specifications, and protect your interests throughout the installation phase. I act as your advocate, not the installer's.
4. Handover & Advice
My Role: I provide comprehensive guidance on using and maintaining your new systems to achieve optimal performance and energy savings. I ensure you understand how to operate systems effectively and what maintenance is required for long-term performance.
5. Monitoring & Verification
My Role: I track the project's performance after completion to verify energy savings are achieved and systems are working effectively. I provide independent verification that your retrofit delivers the promised benefits and meets all PAS 2035 requirements.
Independent Process Management
Throughout the entire process, I work exclusively for you as an independent coordinator. Unlike installer-controlled services, I have no commercial interest in specific products or contractors. My focus is ensuring your retrofit project delivers optimal results, meets all standards, and protects your investment.
My Comprehensive Retrofit Services
I provide all the essential services required for PAS 2035 compliance, ensuring your retrofit project meets the highest standards and delivers optimal results:
Retrofit Surveys
Comprehensive property assessment to identify energy efficiency opportunities and create a detailed retrofit plan that meets PAS 2035 requirements. I evaluate building fabric, ventilation, occupancy patterns, and environmental factors to ensure a whole-house approach.
Retrofit Design
Detailed design and specification of energy efficiency measures, ensuring all improvements work together effectively and meet building regulations. I create coordinated plans that prevent conflicts between different measures and optimise overall performance.
Retrofit Coordination
Independent project management and coordination of the entire retrofit process, overseeing contractors, schedules, and quality control throughout the project. I act as your advocate, ensuring work meets standards and your interests are protected.
Retrofit Approval
Certification that all energy efficiency upgrades meet regulatory standards and best practices, ensuring compliance and access to funding. I provide independent verification that work has been completed to the required standard.
Funding Streams
Expert advice on available grants, loans, and incentives to help finance your retrofit project, including ECO and Local Authority schemes. I help you navigate the complex funding landscape to maximise financial support.
Why Independent Retrofit Coordination is Essential
Protect Your Interests with Independent Services
Free services provided by installers are controlled by the installer, not the stakeholder/client/end user. This creates a conflict of interest where the installer's primary concern is maximising their profit rather than ensuring the best outcome for your property and energy efficiency goals.
Unbiased Assessment
Independent surveys and assessments focus on your property's actual needs rather than what the installer wants to sell. I identify the most effective measures for your specific situation without commercial pressure.
Quality Control
As an independent coordinator, I ensure all work meets the required standards and specifications. I'm not influenced by installer preferences or cost-cutting measures that could compromise quality.
Cost Transparency
Independent services provide honest cost analysis and help you understand what you're paying for. I can identify overpricing or unnecessary work that installer-controlled services might not highlight.
Your Advocate
I work exclusively for you, ensuring your interests are protected throughout the project. When issues arise, I'm on your side, not the installer's, ensuring problems are resolved fairly.
Regulatory Compliance
Independent coordination ensures full PAS 2035 compliance and access to government funding. Installer-controlled services may cut corners or miss requirements that could affect your funding eligibility.
Long-term Performance
I focus on long-term energy performance and system reliability rather than quick installation profits. This ensures your retrofit delivers the promised energy savings and system longevity.
