Trusted by local authorities, housing associations, installers, and homeowners.
Our mission is to raise the standard of energy-efficiency improvements through a whole-house, fabric-first approach. We aim to improve housing quality across the UK by ensuring every project is delivered safely, efficiently, and in full compliance with PAS 2035 and Building Regulations.
Reduce heat loss and air leakage through effective insulation, detailing, and airtightness to improve fabric performance
Maintain healthy indoor air quality with balanced extract and supply systems to manage moisture and prevent condensation
Install efficient heating systems, such as heat pumps or modern boilers, designed to suit the property’s improved thermal performance
Integrate renewable technologies like solar PV, battery storage, and EV charging to maximise self-sufficiency and reduce running costs
Evidence-led quality assurance, performance testing, and monitoring to confirm that each improvement performs as designed
Collect and verify all documentation and photographic evidence, lodge records to the TrustMark Data Warehouse, and store project data securely for full compliance and traceability
Provide clear guidance on how to operate heating, ventilation, and renewable systems. Ensure the resident understands maintenance requirements, new controls, and how to get support if needed.

We are an independent retrofit consultancy based in Ilkeston operating under the Lourens Ventures umbrella, specialising in Retrofit Coordination, Design, and Assessment.
We work with homeowners, installers, housing associations, local authorities, architects, building surveyors and multidisciplinary professionals across the retrofit and wider construction industry who share our commitment to quality, sustainability and high professional standards.
Whether you need individual solutions or a complete end to end package, we support your project at every stage.
With strong oversight and complete independence, we provide the clarity, structure and skills needed to deliver consistently high quality results.
Developed by the British Standards Institution, PAS 2035underpins the UK’s net zero strategy by ensuring retrofit projects are designed and delivered in a consistent, high quality and accountable way.
PAS 2035 requires a whole house approach, assessing the dwelling’s construction, condition, ventilation strategy and occupancy before any measures are designed.
This prevents the problems often seen in past retrofit work, such as damp, mould and inadequate ventilation, and ensures measures work together as an integrated system.
The framework emphasises indoor environmental quality, measure durability and long-term building performance, helping ensure retrofits avoid unintended consequences and remain effective over the building’s life.
PAS 2035 is mandatory for many government-funded schemes, including ECO and Warm Homes, making it central to the UK’s retrofit standards framework and a key driver in cutting carbon emissions and fuel poverty.
Our assessors carry out accurate property evaluations to identify the most effective retrofit measures for improving long term energy efficiency and resident comfort.
Led by experienced chartered professionals, we deliver bespoke construction ready designs that enhance building performance and create healthier, more comfortable homes.
We manage every stage of your project from start to finish, ensuring smooth, fully compliant delivery in line with industry standards and the requirements of ECO, GBIS and Warm Homes funding programmes.
We offer aditional services that support PAS2035 projects by strengthening compliance, reducing risk and improving performance.
