Rough banded estimate. Real cost depends on construction, glazing and heating. Grants (e.g. Warm Homes) and a proposed per-property spending cap may apply. Get a retrofit assessment before committing.
How this is calculated
- Base cost per starting band, scaled by floor area (÷ 850 sq ft reference).
- Annual uplift = current rent × 12 × uplift %.
- Payback = works cost ÷ annual uplift.
