Why Choose Our HMO Landlord EPC Upgrades?

Why landlords in Monmouthshire need PAS 2035 compliance

Regulatory shifts in the housing sector mean that simply adding basic insulation is often no longer enough to meet energy targets. We operate as a PAS 2030 accredited contractor, ensuring that every project adheres to the rigorous PAS 2035 retrofit standards. This framework is vital for landlords, as it prioritises a whole-house approach to decarbonisation. By addressing specific issues like thermal bridging and heat loss, we help you avoid potential fines and ensure your HMO meets the required energy efficiency benchmarks effectively.

Our retrofit process for multi-occupancy properties

We understand that HMOs come in various forms, from historic Victorian terraces to modernised living spaces. Our process begins with a detailed retrofit survey to identify exactly where your property is losing heat. Based on our findings, we may recommend external wall insulation to revitalise the facade or internal wall insulation to preserve heritage features. We also provide professional loft insulation and advanced rendering systems, all applied with minimal disruption to your current tenants, ensuring a smooth transition during the improvement works.

How our energy efficiency solutions benefit your tenants

Upgrading your property is not just about regulatory compliance; it is about tenant retention and comfort. Drafty, cold walls are a common complaint in older Monmouthshire homes, leading to increased mould growth and higher energy bills for occupants. By installing modern insulation and high-performance render, we drastically reduce heat loss and stabilise indoor temperatures. This investment creates a healthier living environment, reduces utility costs, and makes your property a more attractive proposition in the competitive rental market.

Quality assurance and professional trust

As a landlord, you need partners who provide reliable, guaranteed workmanship. We are fully CHAS accredited, meaning our health and safety practices are held to the highest industry standards. Furthermore, we provide SWIGA insurance-backed guarantees, offering you long-term protection and peace of mind on all our insulation installations. Our team serves the entire Monmouthshire region, combining local knowledge with technical expertise to support your property portfolio.

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.
