Contractors in our cooperative offer quality work at fair prices.
Over the years, we have built a cooperative of contractors, and we’re able to provide a referral.
The difference between Ecofurb and bog standard referral sites is that we work with our pool of contractors regularly, so if a contractor wasn’t performing, we would know.
PRE-APPROVED, FOR PEACE OF MIND
With every contractor we refer to, comes an assurance that they have been vetted in advance. We check all our members against industry, financial, health and safety, and insurance criteria so that you don’t have to.
OUR CONTRACTORS’ STANDARDS
We check that all members of our cooperative hold the right accreditations for the work they do.
This includes any required industry standards for the area they work in, and normally includes TrustMark registration. Our renewable energy generation installers are MCS certified.
For most grant-funded work, or if you request it, we and our contractors can work to government PAS (Publicly Available Specification) 2035.

YOUR EXPERT ADVISER
An Ecofurb Coordinator will provide you with advice about which improvements would suit your home and how to have them installed. They are independent of the contractors.
Ecofurb Coordinators work with qualified Retrofit Assessors; often it is an Assessor who carries out the survey for an Ecofurb Plan.
See our home page for more information about the home survey and Ecofurb Plan and the Building Performance Requirements services.
