Cavity wall and Loft Insulation grants
There are two types of grant available to homeowners and private tenants. Partial grants will fund between 40-70% of the installation cost for Cavity Wall Insulation and Loft Insulation. 100% grants are also available for those who qualify. In both cases, grants are approved by surveyors and do not have to be paid back.
Partial grants
All homeowners and private tenants qualify for a 40% to 70% grant. This is known as ‘Able To Pay Funding’. Householders will pay only a small contribution towards the cost. With the savings made on heating bills you will recover the costs within two years from the time of installation
100% grants
If you are aged over 70 then you are entitled to a Cavity wall Insulation/ Loft Insulation grant or both. This will cover 100% of the grant. However, if you are a pensioner under 70 you will need to be in receipt of benefits to claim the 100% grant. The government and utility companies regard these customers as priority, which is why insulation is offered free of charge.
Benefits will entitle you to a 100% grant, if any person living in the house is in receipt of any of the following:
Attendance Allowance
Income Support
Council Tax Benefit
Disability Living Allowance
Disability Persons Tax Credit
Housing Benefit
Child Tax Credit
Working Tax Credit
Industrial Injuries Disablement Benefit
Income Based Job Seekers Allowance
War Disablement Pension
Pension Credit ( State Pension alone does not qualify)
