Making older homes warmer, more comfortable and energy efficient, while respecting their original character. We provide carefully considered eco-retrofit solutions for period and traditional properties across Derbyshire.
That should sit nicely over the hero image without becoming a wall of text.
Making older homes warmer, more efficient and ready for the future.
Improving the energy efficiency of an older property requires a considered approach. At Stephen Harvey Ltd, we combine over 30 years of building and renovation experience with modern energy-saving solutions to improve comfort and efficiency while respecting the character of your home.
From individual improvements to a more extensive renovation, we can help you make practical changes that work with your property rather than against it.
Period and traditional properties weren’t built with modern energy efficiency in mind, but improving their performance doesn’t mean sacrificing the features and character that make them special.
We take a practical, considered approach to eco-retrofit, looking at the property as a whole and identifying improvements appropriate to its age, construction and condition.
Depending on the project, this can include insulation improvements, underfloor heating, air source heat pumps, upgraded windows and doors, and improvements to the existing building fabric.
Where possible, we use appropriate, environmentally conscious materials and methods, with the aim of creating a home that is warmer, more comfortable and more economical to run.
If you’re already planning building or renovation work, it can be the ideal time to improve your home’s energy efficiency.
Floors may already be coming up, walls exposed or heating systems replaced, allowing energy-saving improvements to be incorporated naturally into the project rather than added at a later date.
With extensive experience of renovating older and period properties, Stephen and the team understand the importance of balancing modern performance with traditional construction and character.
Whether it’s part of a larger restoration, extension or refurbishment, we’ll work with you to find practical solutions that suit both your property and the way you live.
