Loft insulation grant
How do you go about seeking a grant towards insulation without getting calls from contractors?

Re: Loft insulation grant
I'm not on benefits but I should be entitled to a percentage towards the cost. Is it still worth clicking on the link?

Re: Loft insulation grant
No. Whenever I search for info about grants on the net there seems to be a lot from various sources which suggests that people are jumping on the bandwagon to extract a bit of coin. There has to be one main legitimate way to do it surely

Re: Loft insulation grant

Re: Loft insulation grant
When you do a search for government grants, only click on government sites, or you will go to contractors sites, if your application is successful, you WILL be contacted by contractors, push them for as much as possible, they usually try to get extra money out of people even though the grant should cover the cost.
