What is the Leaky Homes Roadshow?
Trained Energy Champions from Energy Action Redhill and Reigate are conducting individual energy efficiency surveys of local homes across East Surrey.
Each home taking part in the Roadshow will receive:
​
-
Tailor-made advice and a written report about ways you can improve the energy efficiency and comfort of your home and potentially save on bills
-
A personalised smart pack of energy efficiency materials to help with minor improvements
-
Where suitable, we can provide direct access to free/subsidised loft insulation and will signpost you to current funding schemes to help with other larger energy efficiency measures such as wall insulation
-
During winter only - thermal images of your home - showing where heat is leaking
How much does it cost?
The survey is free of charge to all eligible households.
​
This is thanks to funding from the Local Energy Advice Demonstrator project run by Surrey County Council, in partnership with the Greater South East Energy Hub. We have also been funded by UK Power Networks in order to provide energy efficiency materials.
However, in order to reach as many households as possible, we are asking people who can afford it to make a donation of £25. This donation is entirely voluntary and will be recycled back into the project to enable us to deliver more surveys.
How do I take part?Â
Click on the "Request Survey" button to register your interest.
​
This will take you to a Survey Request form where we will ask for some background information about your home and your energy use.
It would be helpful if you have your energy bills to hand and if you know the EPC rating of your home. (Check here if you are not sure: www.gov.uk/find-energy-certificate). However, if you are unable to find this information, you can leave these questions blank and we will follow up at the survey).
​
We will get in touch to arrange a suitable date and time and to confirm the names of the Energy Champions who will attend.
​
The survey will take around 30 - 45 minutes. We will provide some advice at the visit and we aim to follow up within two weeks with a written report plus delivery of any free energy efficiency materials that are suggested.

Save money
Cut your energy bills by using energy more efficiently. We can show you where heat is escaping and how to reduce this, as well as other cost effective ways to reduce your energy use.

Stay Warm
Keep the heat inside your home by improving insulation and reducing draughts. We can provide access to loft insulation and energy efficiency "smart packs" to create an energy efficient and cosy home.

Go green
By reducing your energy use you will also be reducing your carbon footprint - as most energy is still created using fossil fuels. Good for you and good for the planet!
