At wienerberger UK we recognise that one of the key barriers for social housing providers undertaking retrofit work is access to the right funding and financing. While our core focus is delivering a complete retrofit solution via our “Renatus” service – from survey and design, through installation and warranty – we also support you by connecting you with independent funding specialists who understand the social housing sector.
By ensuring the funding structure is right from the outset, you can deliver better outcomes for tenants (lower bills, improved comfort), while meeting regulatory or EPC targets.
How we can help
Although we do not provide direct funding ourselves, our process is designed to make the funding component less complicated:
• Early-stage connection – Once you engage us for a retrofit project, we can introduce you to trusted funding advisers who are familiar with the social housing sector and retrofit funding streams.
• Co-ordinated approach – Our technical team, surveyors and retrofit designers work alongside your funding adviser to ensure the retrofit performance, specification and project plan align with the criteria of potential funding programmes.
If your organisation already has in-house funding and financing expertise, that’s great – our retrofit service is fully compatible with an internal funding team. We’ll work alongside your in-house resource (whether that’s a capital programme manager, sustainability officer or retrofit lead) to deliver the specification, installation and performance verification required for your funding strategy.
