About the Practice
Eco-Renovation UK is a family-run building and insulation company based in Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire. It specialises in energy improvements and sympathetic renovation for period properties and listed buildings, alongside sustainable extensions and construction projects.
Natural insulation and thermal improvements
The company installs internal and external wall insulation, roof insulation and floor insulation. Its work includes wood fibre, cellulose, cork and hemp-based systems, together with cork-lime insulating plasters and renders. Materials and methods are selected to suit the existing structure, with an emphasis on compatible finishes and the moisture behaviour of traditional buildings.
Specialist services include the application of insulating lime-cork plaster to uneven walls, the installation of wood-fibre insulation and the use of cellulose insulation in timber-frame construction. Eco-Renovation UK also undertakes insulation and airtightness work for low-energy and Passivhaus/EnerPHit projects.
Period and listed building renovation
The company carries out cottage renovations, period property refurbishments, barn conversions and work to listed buildings. Services include lime plastering and rendering, damp investigation and associated remedial works. Sustainable extensions and timber-frame construction form part of its wider building service.
Advice and project planning
Eco-Renovation UK offers property health checks and practical advice on insulation, damp and energy-efficiency improvements. Its refurbishment consultancy helps clients compare methods, select materials appropriate to their building and plan the sequence of works.
The company states that this advisory service is supported by an in-house qualified Domestic Energy Assessor holding a Level 3 award in Energy Efficiency for Older and Traditional Buildings.

Its published portfolio includes natural insulation and lime plastering in a sixteenth-century listed building, a Victorian terraced-house retrofit in Muswell Hill, cork-lime internal wall insulation in a Georgian property in Islington, and insulation works to listed cottages and historic roofs.
