SUSTAINABLE RETROFIT FOR SOCIAL HOUSING

Greener living for all.

We help social landlords fund, design and deliver sustainable retrofit works, making better living possible for everyone.

SOCIAL HOUSING NEEDS TO CHANGE

It’s time for social housing to go green.

The world is moving towards a greener future - with the central government’s 2050 Net Zero Strategy on the horizon. Stats from the ONS show that social landlords own approximately 17% of UK housing stock, and social housing needs to respond with strategic and lasting improvements.

HELPING SOCIAL LANDLORDS TACKLE DECARBONISATION

Defining your decarbonisation strategy.

Today, every social landlord needs a defined decarbonisation strategy for their properties. Yet shaping that strategy requires a deep understanding of factors like different funding streams, technologies and business cases, as well as the best retrofit practices (PAS2035). 


Without this holistic approach, the result is often a botched job that fails to do the tenant or the planet justice.

THE KSQUARED APPROACH

With our unique combination of knowledge, network and experience, we can build a sustainable social housing sector. Where going green isn’t just an aspiration thought, but a realistic, affordable and life-changing option.

Acting as a single point of contact, we play an impartial role, supporting our clients at every stage of the retrofit journey.

“Everyone deserves access to safe, clean and affordable housing.  Done right, retrofit can deliver this security to the social tenants that need it most. It provides benefits that can truly change a tenant’s life - improving their health, comfort and financial outlook. 

That’s why we love what we do.”
