The UK’s insulation grants, such as ECO scheme, are government schemes funded by the UK’s largest utility companies, including the so-called ‘Big Six’. These companies are duly obliged to offer grants that can help those in need to enhance the energy efficiency of their homes for good, without costing you a penny.
The grants available with the ECO4 and Local Authority Flex Funding schemes cover many different types of insulation, depending on your property age and type. This includes cavity wall and loft insulation, as well as first time central heating and boiler replacements.

Benefits of external wall insulation
External wall insulation involves fixing a layer of insulation material to the wall, then covering it with a special type of render (plasterwork) or classing. The finish can be textured, painted, tiled, panelled , pebble-dashed (for easy maintenance), or finished with brick slips . Here are five key benefits to external wall insulation that you might be able to receive without having to spend a penny of your hard-earned money:
- Available for free if you qualify for government ECO or LA FLEX grant schemes
- Keep more of your property’s heat that is lost through uninsulated walls
- Maintaining a good temperature for your home offers comfort and health benefits
- External wall insulation helps reduce your property’s carbon footprint
- External wall insulation is quick and simple to retrofit when you choose an approved installer. Lifetime Savings can help.
Cavity walls Vs Solid walls: What’s the difference?
- Properties built after the 1920s typically have cavity walls. The cavity is the gap created by two walls of brick.
- Older properties built circa pre-1920s most commonly have solid brick or stone walls with no cavity.
Typically, properties built up to 2002 and beyond will already have cavity wall insulation, but properties older than that are unlikely to have cavity wall insulation whatsoever.
That’s where we are able to help.
