About Eco-Renovation UK
We are a construction company with a background in residential construction works using sustainable methods and natural materials.
We cover North London, Hertfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire and the main areas we specialise in are:
Sustainable construction
Eco-Renovation can advise on and build with sustainable materials and methods that comply with - and even exceed - current building regulations. For our low energy builds we use Eco-friendly solutions such as timber frame construction, cellulose insulation, hempcrete and screw pile foundations. These materials are airtight, better insulating and more breathable than a standard brick & block construction.
Listed building renovations
We have considerable experience in refurbishing period buildings and listed properties using lime plasters, breathable structures and sympathetic, natural materials. All of our methods are widely accepted by conservation officers and we can advise on which materials are the most optimal for your project.
Low carbon insulations
Our company specialises in low carbon insulation installations. We use natural insulation systems on most of our projects such as woodfibre, hempcrete and cork. We are one of the very few contractors in the UK invested in specialised equipment for
- spraying lime & cork thermal renders - used typically on old, solid brickwork or stone walls, either internally or externally
- blowing Warmcel cellulose insulation to timber frame - normally used for new builds or extensions.
