Why Choose Our HMO Landlord EPC Upgrades?

Improving Energy Efficiency and Tenant Retention

High energy bills are a significant point of contention for tenants and can lead to increased turnover and persistent damp or mould issues. By investing in professional internal or external wall insulation, you can significantly reduce thermal bridging and heat loss. Our team works across the Maesteg and Bridgend region to deliver high-impact upgrades that lower utility costs and prevent the structural damage often associated with poorly insulated solid-wall buildings. A well-insulated property is not only easier to manage but is also a more attractive prospect for long-term tenants.

How PAS 2035 Compliance Protects Your Property Investment

Compliance with PAS 2035 standards is no longer just a recommendation; it is the industry benchmark for effective, whole-house retrofitting. Our team follows these rigorous standards to ensure that any insulation or rendering work we perform is technically sound and fit for purpose. By integrating PAS 2030 accredited methods, we help landlords future-proof their assets against evolving legislation. We handle the technical complexities of ventilation and moisture control, which are vital when insulating older properties found throughout South Wales.

Is Your Maesteg Property Ready for New EPC Standards?

Many older properties in Maesteg feature solid walls that are notoriously difficult to heat. Our targeted solutions include installing high-performance internal wall insulation or external wall insulation, followed by premium silicone rendering finishes. This process improves the thermal envelope of your building, directly lifting your EPC rating. We understand the specific planning and conservation considerations that apply to local housing stock, allowing us to guide you through the process from initial survey to final certification.

What Our Clients Say About Global Plastering

"Excellent work the team removing our old 1970's cladding and replacing it with insulation and a rendered finish. The job went smooth from start to finish with all old materials removed from site. We are very pleased with the end result and would thoroughly recommend Global Plastering."

A. Jenkins (Ferndale)

"Dilwyn and his team were brilliant and made a lovely job of our EWI. They were very friendly, hard-working, and left no mess at the end of each day. Our house looks great and we can definitely feel the benefits of the insulation already. I'm very glad we chose EWI especially with energy costs as they are now."

G. Toogood (Bristol)

"Charlotte and the team were professional, reliable, and excellent at communicating throughout. They did a fantastic job of skimming and rendering the back of our house during our renovation. Superb quality of work and highly recommended!"

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about HMO EPC upgrades, MEES compliance, and our PAS 2035 retrofit services in South Wales and South West England.

What is the minimum EPC rating for HMOs in 2024?

+

Currently, the minimum standard is an E. However, the government has proposed that all new tenancies must reach a C by 2025/2026, with all existing tenancies hitting that mark by 2028-2030. Even if the deadlines shift slightly, the trend is clear: D and E rated properties will soon be unrentable legally.

How does External Wall Insulation help my EPC score?

+

In many older Ferndale properties, the walls are "solid," meaning they have no cavity to fill. These walls lose heat incredibly fast. EWI acts like a thermal tea cosy for your house. Because it is so effective at stopping heat loss, it is often the single biggest "point-scorer" on an EPC assessment for a Victorian or Edwardian building.

Do I need planning permission for EWI on my HMO?

+

In many cases, EWI falls under permitted development. However, if your property is in a conservation area or is a listed building, rules change. We can help you navigate this, and if you are in a terrace where EWI might change the look of the street, we can discuss finishes like brick-slips that mimic the original look while providing modern warmth.

Is Internal Wall Insulation a better option for HMOs?

+

IWI is great if you want to keep the external look of the building exactly as it is, or if planning rules prevent EWI. The downside is that it reduces the room's internal dimensions slightly. In an HMO, where room sizes are strictly regulated by the council, you have to be careful not to make a room too small to be legally let. We can advise on the thinnest, most efficient materials to prevent this.

How long does an energy retrofit take?

+

It depends on the size of the house, but a typical terraced HMO can usually be insulated and rendered externally in 2 to 3 weeks, depending on the weather. We work efficiently to make sure there is minimal disruption to your tenants.
