What do we cover in Runnymede?

Coordination with your retrofit assessor and retrofit coordinator
Fabric measures: external, internal and cavity wall insulation, loft and floor insulation
Windows and doors, draught-proofing and airtightness details
Ventilation upgrades to match the improved airtightness
Solar PV where it is part of the design

How do we deliver it?

We do not treat a measure in isolation. If the design adds insulation and airtightness, we make sure the ventilation upgrade is in the same programme, because condensation is the most common retrofit failure.
