Our Services
We are happy to work directly with clients or in collaboration with an architect or design team. This may extend to providing input and having communications with planners, building inspectors and structural engineers concerning technical issues.
Whilst not everyone wants to build an eco house, we can help you to make informed decisions about sustainability whatever the building project, budget and lifestyle choices.
In our advice, we take into account...
- Environmental building (low carbon construction) to meet the highest energy efficiency standards; zero heating, zero CO2 standards and autonomous homes
- Technical information on the building envelope covering material choice, insulation, glazing and ventilation
- Analysis of heat gains/losses, heat input requirements and thermal capacities of buildings
- Water usage and collection capabilities from building and surrounds (including conservation considerations)
- Filtration requirements and options. This could be extended to provide an autonomous water supply and waste water/sewage systems (eg reed beds and compost toilets)
- Renewable energy generation
- Eco-refurbishment
