READY to shrink your energy bills and boost your home’s value?

If you live in an old Victorian house, you may find it hard to heat. You won’t need telling how both the cost – and the hassle – of retrofitting your home can be a challenge.

The Victorian Terrace Energy Reduction Initiative is a social enterprise dedicated to providing advice and assessments for reducing energy bills and cutting CO2 emissions for Victorian and Edwardian houses. Based in North London VICTERI also carries our draughtproofing work to windows and promotes solar renewables.

can provide advice to suit your budget about: • where to start • what to invest in • who to get the work done by We cover a full range of energy-efficiency measures including: • extra loft insulation • draught proofing • secondary glazing • full solid wall insulation • tailor-made solutions

Your plan

Any home improvement should, we believe, be part of a long-term plan to maximise the energy performance of your home.
can provide you with that plan, with a full calculated energy survey, or a less formal advice report.
We draw on the experience of working on our own Victorian Terrace houses, reducing energy bills and increasing comfort.

Renewable energy

We can help you take advantage of the opportunities offered by Solar PV cells (electric generation) and Solar water heating.

Draughts are enemy number one

If you have leaky windows, you’re not the only one. The biggest wastage is heating the air outside. So we offer a renovation and draught proofing service for sash windows.

We’re better working together

A plan for one house in a terrace will be valid, with minor changes, for the other houses in the same terrace. So it makes great sense to work together.
We offer a batch price for several surveys in one terrace, and can help set up buying groups for discounts on materials and installation. Why not host a meeting in your terrace?
Contact us today for an energy survey, to host a neighbours’ meeting or to discuss your options.
