Our target of Net Zero Carbon

Whilst we offer many different property services, one that sits close to our heart is the opportunity to reach a target of net zero carbon homes – a greener UK. Going back to our roots, EPCs are still a core service offering for our team. The question we kept asking ourselves was how we contribute to a greener UK and make it easier for your customers to upgrade their ratings without breaking the bank.

Corporate Social Responsibilities

1 

ECONOMICAL

We endeavour to consistently run our business at a high efficiency level in order to generate a steady flow of profitability. We aim to establish and maintain a strong competitive position. This will then create jobs and provide investment. Our end goal is not to simply maximise profits, but to positively impact the environment, people, and society.

2

ETHICAL

We are fully committed to reducing our environmental impact across the scope of our operation and through services we deliver to customers. Our company recognises the need to protect the natural environment. We understand keeping our environment clean and unpolluted is a benefit to all. We conduct our business in an open, honest, and ethical manner and actively strive to implement anti-corruption practices and socially responsible supply chains. 

3

LEGAL

We will operate in conjunction with government and legal expectations and display complete compliance with all official regulations. We recognise that legal considerations are necessary for our success.

4

PHILANTHROPIC

We will give back to society by reducing fuel poverty and helping people to get out of the vulnerable / low-income sector by reducing household bills and providing greater warmth during the colder seasons. We are committed to developing a diverse and enabled workforce from the widest talent pools and promote equal opportunities for all.

What are we doing?

We are committed to minimising our environmental impact. Working with our suppliers and selected partners, we will continue to reduce our carbon emissions and waste. We are continually looking to utilise the latest technologies to improve our environmental sustainability.

Our actions will help to tackle climate change and protect nature.

 

Detailed below are some of the measures we have taken to minimise our environmental impact:

  • We send electronic invoices to customers and utilise digital survey tools and software to reduce paper consumption.

  • We implement energy-efficient practices, such as using energy-saving appliances and lighting.

  • We promote recycling and proper disposal of electronic devices and batteries.

  • We optimise travel routes and encourage remote consultations or virtual surveys to reduce  carbon emissions.

  • We choose eco-friendly materials for surveying equipment when possible.

  • We educate our staff on environmentally friendly practices and encourage eco-conscious behaviour.

  • We use hybrid or electric vehicles for field surveys to decrease carbon emissions and help the environment.

  • We use different bins for various recyclables, fostering a culture of recycling.

  • We explore partnerships with suppliers who prioritise sustainable and eco-friendly products.
