Indicative cost to reach band C
£0 – £0
From band E to band C. Typical measures:
- Cavity or loft insulation
- New efficient boiler
- Draught-proofing
Estimate only — real costs depend on the property’s age, size and construction. Get quotes; this is a planning guide. Roughly £8,000 at the top end.
Works don’t stack up?
