"That winter nearly did us in. Boiler clanging. Oil tank low. Pipes frozen. We thought we had no options for a farmhouse this size. We were wrong. Big old stone house. Off the gas grid. Burning through coal, logs, oil… and still cold. The walls? Felt like they breathed cold. We’d sit in coats. Two pairs of socks. Still shivering. Frost on the inside of the windows. Pipes froze — twice. The oil tank always running low. Logs piled high in the burner, and still waking up to freezing floors. I remember saying to my wife — “Maybe this is just how winters are now.” Then we met a bloke at the sheep sale. Not salesy. Just said: “There’s a government scheme — ECO4. You might qualify for a full heating upgrade. No cost to you.” We were sceptical. Thought it sounded too good to be true. But he wasn’t pushy. So we let him do the free energy survey. Turns out: EPC was rock-bottom. We were on Pension Credit. The house was leaking over 45% of its heat. And, because we were also off the gas grid... ...That was enough. 3 months later: ✅ Internal insulation on the walls ✅ Solar panels on the roof ✅ A quiet, efficient air source heat pump No more boiler racket. No more freezing floors. Just steady, quiet warmth — even in February. I walked to the kitchen in the morning. No socks. No swearing. It wasn’t fancy. But it was warm. And it worked. “Didn’t cost us a penny. But it changed everything.” A few things to know: It’s part of the government’s ECO4 scheme. We don’t sell boilers — and we don’t chase. No jargon, no pressure — just plain-English help. And yes — if you qualify and go ahead, they pay us. “They couldn’t believe how warm it was. Said it didn’t feel like the same house.” But here’s the thing... There’s nothing worse than trying to get heating sorted mid-winter… Cold air rushing in every time the door swings open. Workmen in and out. No heating while they’re fitting it. And you’re sat there — colder than before they started. Every year, someone says: “I’ll sort it soon.” Then calving kicks off. The tractor breaks. Next thing — it’s October. Still no heating. Still walking around in coats. If summer’s still open — take it. Because leave it too long, and you’ll be stuck again: — Doors banging in the wind — Mud tracked through the hallway — Wind howling, house freezing, job dragging on — Everyone asking why you didn’t just get it done earlier That’s why we tell folks: spring/summer is your window. ✅ Installers aren’t booked solid ✅ Weather’s better ✅ Jobs run quicker — and yes, most still keep heating while it’s fitted ✅ Done and dusted before the frost hits And right now — the last of the summertime slots are going. But it’s not for everyone. You usually need to be: On something like Pension Credit, Universal Credit, or Child Tax Credit OR Dealing with conditions worsened by the cold — like arthritis, fibro, asthma, etc. We’ll ask a few quick questions. And if it’s not a fit, we’ll say so. Simple as that. “My wife has fibromyalgia. The cold made her pain unbearable. Since the upgrade — she’s finally comfortable.
