Why Choose Our HMO Landlord EPC Upgrades?

Why landlords in the Rhondda are upgrading now

Properties in Treherbert often feature solid wall construction or non-traditional builds which naturally struggle with heat retention. As energy bills rise, tenants are increasingly prioritising the energy performance of their homes, making an EPC C rating a significant competitive advantage. Failing to meet these standards can lead to restricted rental ability and potential penalties under MEES regulations. We help you decarbonise your assets, reduce thermal bridging, and eliminate draughts that plague older housing stock, ultimately protecting your long-term investment from rapid obsolescence.

Our approach to PAS 2035 and retrofit compliance

Every retrofit project we undertake is managed with professional precision to meet the rigorous PAS 2035 standard. This framework ensures that any insulation or rendering work is tailored to the specific humidity and structural requirements of your building. Our team handles the entire process, from initial retrofit assessment to the final installation of external or internal wall insulation. By working with us, you gain the peace of mind that comes with PAS 2030 accreditation, ensuring all improvements are carried out safely, effectively, and in accordance with building control regulations.

Effective solutions for solid wall and Victorian properties

Many rental properties in our area, particularly traditional terraces, require bespoke solutions to improve thermal performance without sacrificing their character. Our services include high-performance external wall insulation, internal wall insulation for homes where the exterior must be preserved, and loft insulation upgrades. We also provide modern rendering systems that offer weatherproofing and aesthetic facelifts. These upgrades are specifically designed to tackle the common issue of cold, damp walls, ensuring your properties remain mould-free and comfortable year-round, which in turn reduces your maintenance burden as a landlord.

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.
