Social housing and estate programmes for March properties
Our Cambridgeshire coverage takes in March (PE15) and nearby Wisbech, Ely and Peterborough. It is roughly 24 miles north of Cambridge.
For landlords and managing agents in March, we survey in batches and return a result sheet and fixed price per address. Per-address photo records for March properties make compliance files and EPC updates straightforward.
Every elevation is judged on its own exposure. Much of Cambridgeshire sits in the more sheltered driving-rain zones of the UK, which widens the choice of fill. Exposed elevations, coastal sites and high ground still get checked wall by wall.
In terms of approvals, in March filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
Funding in England
In England, ECO4 runs to 31 December 2026 and Warm Homes: Local Grant supports low-income households through councils.

Quality after ECO
The National Audit Office's October 2025 report found serious failings in some government-funded installs. We work survey-first, record every stage, and name the installer and guarantee on each order.
