How do we deliver it?

Loft work includes checking that the eaves are still ventilating once the new insulation is down, because blocked eaves cause condensation in the roof space.

Which rules apply in Bedford?

PAS 2035:2023 sets the whole-house retrofit process (assessment, coordination, design, installation and evaluation), and PAS 2030:2023 covers installation. Most government-backed retrofit schemes require both, with TrustMark lodgement.
