Q: Free retrofit advice consultations now available

As autumn progresses, many of us think about ways to make our homes warmer, more comfortable and cheaper to heat. And this year, we might also be thinking about better levels of controlled ventilation.

Cafs are offering FREE 30-minute consultation phone calls about retrofitting your home, to give you ideas about where you might want to target measures to make your property more flood-resilient, among other things.
