How it works

Three steps from first thoughts to a clear comparison

We do the legwork of finding providers. You stay in charge of every decision.

  1. Tell us about your property

    Share a few details about your home and what you're considering, whether that's one improvement or several.

  2. Get matched with relevant providers

    We use what you've told us to connect you with providers suited to your property and the work you have in mind.

  3. Compare and decide

    Look at your options side by side and choose what works for you. Whether you go ahead is entirely up to you.

Worth knowing: the providers we can match you with depend on your property, where you live and what you're looking for, so we don't promise a set number of quotes.

Heat pumps

Could a heat pump heat your home?

An air source heat pump takes warmth from the outside air and uses it to heat your radiators, underfloor heating and hot water.

It runs on electricity rather than burning gas or oil, and it's designed to keep working through cold weather. For many households it's the main route to lower-carbon heating.

  • Lower-carbon heatingNo gas or oil is burned at home, and heat pumps typically have a lower carbon footprint than a boiler.
  • Efficient by designA well-designed system can deliver more heat energy than the electricity it uses.
  • Possible help with costsGovernment grants may be available in parts of the UK, depending on eligibility.

Not right for every property. Insulation, radiator sizes, outdoor space and your current heating all affect suitability and running costs, and savings aren't guaranteed. An installer can assess your home before you decide.

More home-energy improvements

Other ways to improve how your home uses energy

Each of these can stand alone, and several work well together. Start with whichever matters most to you.

Solar panels

Generate your own electricity

Solar panels turn daylight into electricity you can use at home, which can reduce what you buy from the grid. How much they generate depends on your roof's size, direction and shading.

EV chargers

Charge your car at home

A dedicated home charge point is typically faster than a three-pin plug and can be set to charge at off-peak times. You'll usually need off-street parking and a suitable electricity supply.

Insulation and energy efficiency

Keep hold of the heat you pay for

Insulation and draught-proofing reduce the heat your home loses, which can make it more comfortable and cut the energy needed to heat it. It's often worth looking at before, or alongside, a heat pump.

  • Loft and roofOften the simplest place to start.
  • WallsCavity or solid, depending on how your home is built.
  • Floors and draughtsSmaller jobs that add up.

Why EnergyAdvise?

A calmer way to weigh up a big decision

Home-energy upgrades are significant purchases. We aim to make the research and the comparison easier, without making the decision for you.

What we do, and what we don't EnergyAdvise is a matching service. We don't sell or install products ourselves; we introduce you to providers so you can compare what they offer. Any quote or contract is between you and the provider.
  • Options relevant to your home

    Every property is different. We start from your home and what you're considering, so you can focus on improvements that make sense for you.

  • Less time spent finding providers

    Rather than searching for and contacting companies one by one, tell us what you need once and we'll connect you with relevant providers.

  • Informed comparisons

    Our guides explain the questions worth asking, so when quotes arrive you can compare them on more than price alone.
