GBIS is targeted at properties with an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating of D-G.

What is GBIS?

GBIS (Great British Insulation Scheme) is an important supplier obligation program, running from April 2023 to March 2026. Although it will be fully operational by the summer of 2023, it is currently in the Early Delivery stage, granting some access before full implementation. Ofgem administers this scheme and it is funded by medium to large energy companies. Unlike the ECO scheme, which adopts a "whole house" approach, the GBIS will primarily focus on delivering single insulation measures, such as loft and cavity wall insulation.

Some Services that qualify for GBIS

Loft Insulation

Loft insulation is a no-brainer when it comes to reducing heat loss from your home. Installed correctly, loft insulation will not only make your home warmer and cheaper to heat but should even pay for itself many times over in its 40-year lifetime. Moreover, Loft Insulation Grants are available for those who are in receipt of a qualifying benefit.

CAvity Wall Insulation

Did you know that between 25% - 35% of all heat lost in an un-insulated home escapes through the walls and roof? Fitting cavity wall and loft insulation is one of the most cost-effective ways to improve your homes energy efficiency. Northern Retrofit Ltd are experts in cavity wall insulation with over 25 years’ experience in the industry.
