From surveying my property to assess its particular heat-loss characteristics to seeing the refurbishment to its completion, Eric has paid attention to all the details. This had included not only the calculation of what strategies were appropriate to reduce heat loss, listing the materials required, their quantities and suppliers, but also co-ordination of the work and installing the MHVR. This joined-up thinking throughout meant a minimisation of the inevitable mess and upheaval such a radical overhaul of a house entails.
