The #1 source of free government grant money for home improvements

Egest SeiTortor AtQuisPharetra Et Ultrices NequeTempus Urna Et UElementumsNisi

As the funding is a grant, not a loan, it doesn’t need to be repaid and could cover a large part - if not all - of the cost of improving your home.

Who is eligible?

The funding is available if a member of your household receives a qualifying benefit. It is also available if you meet your local authority's 'Help to Heat' criteria. So if you don't claim benefits but you have high fuel costs, if you are older than 65, pregnant, have young children or if you have a health condition it is worth applying as you might be eligible through local authority funding rules.

Are these grants really free?

How much will I get?

It's difficult to tell until a free survey takes place. The grant is paid directly to the installer rather than do you directly.

The scheme is available to homeowners, private renters and housing association tenants that receive at least one or more of the qualifying benefits above and also to households that have high fuel costs in relation to income. Check eligibility here >

Am I eligible for the ECO scheme?

Usually from the point at which you apply to the installation should take no longer than 4 weeks but sometimes you can have your new heating or insulation installed within a week or less.

It has made such a difference to our life

Yes! The UK Government has carbon reduction targets to meet and the Energy Company Obligation plays a huge role in hitting the target. All major Energy Companies are obliged by the UK Government to fund these measures. They are being offered to low-income households as often they are most vulnerable.

What our customers say

Energy Saving Genie have helped us so much with our installation of gas central heating.  From the moment we applied, to the finish of installation, they were constantly in touch with us, helping to chase companies to complete and smoothing the way to make the whole process easier.  Would definitely recommend them.

Energy Saving Genie I have personally used this company I highly recommend this company as they went above and beyond to help me nothing was a problem they sorted it in a highly professional manner what a brilliant team they are !

I used Google search to locate details to see if a suitable grant was available to have our 12 years old gas boiler replaced after a recent failure of hot water and central heating. The web was easy to navigate and all the questions answered for my requirements... I’m glad I chose Energy Saving Genie from all the other web listings. Our experience from start to finish was fantastic especially in this current global situation so well done all.

I was pleased, when they found my insulation lacking, was immediately able to schedule in and complete, this additional job. I will certainly recommend this Company at every opportunity.

Lesley Elliot, Ipswich

Just wanted to say a huge Thank you for all your help and support with our central heating. You've been so helpful and always gave the best advice.
It's all sorted now and finally we have a gas central heating installed, a cosy,warm house with hot water all the times so my girls can now have a nice bath before going to bed
