Most of what we do is houses. Cold ones, damp ones, expensive ones.
From a single attic job to a complete deep retrofit.
Most of what we do is houses. Homes that are cold in the wrong rooms, expensive to heat, damp in the corners, or simply not performing the way their owners expected.
ENCON works across the full range of residential upgrade work — from a single attic insulation job through to a complete deep retrofit with a heat pump, new ventilation and solar PV. We also build new homes and manage extensions and renovations where the existing house is being brought up at the same time.
The approach is the same regardless of scale: survey the building first, work out what it actually needs, sequence the measures so each one supports the next, and handle the grant side so the homeowner isn’t left navigating it alone.
Age and construction do more than anything else to set the right path.
Irish housing stock has some recurring patterns, and they shape what a house needs:
A survey establishes which of these you have and what it changes. Age and construction type do more to determine the right upgrade path than anything else about a house.
From insulation to heat pumps, ventilation and more. Improve comfort, lower bills and increase your BER rating.
New builds, extensions and deep retrofits, fully managed from design and planning through to construction and completion.
High-quality solar panel systems for homes, farms and businesses. Lower energy costs and gain energy independence.
Energy upgrades and construction solutions for commercial, agricultural and public sector projects.
Homeowners consistently tell us the same thing about why they put off upgrading: not the cost, but the prospect of coordinating it. Finding contractors, deciding what to do first, chasing quotes, managing grant applications, and hoping somebody takes responsibility if it doesn’t work.
The One Stop Shop route exists for that. One survey, one plan, one contract, one point of contact, and the grant deducted from the invoice instead of reimbursed months later. We manage the trades, the sequence, the paperwork and the compliance.
Not every house needs a deep retrofit, and not every household is ready for one. If the sensible move is an attic top-up and a cavity fill this year, that’s what we’ll recommend — and we’ll tell you what the next step should be when you’re ready for it.
We’re based in Waterford and work with homeowners across Ireland, with our densest coverage across the South East.
With a survey. The right first measure depends on the house, and spending in the wrong order is the most common way people waste money.
No. Phased upgrades work well, as long as the phases are planned as one design so later work doesn’t undo earlier work.
For most measures, no. Deep retrofits vary and we’ll give you a straight answer at survey.
Either you claim individual grants yourself, or we handle everything through the One Stop Shop route and net the support off your bill. We’ll explain which suits you.
Yes, nationally, with the strongest coverage across the South East.
