Light Retrofit

A lighter touch that makes a lasting difference

Not every home needs a full overhaul. Sometimes, you just want to make it warmer. Healthier. More comfortable to live in. You want to protect what’s already beautiful—and fix what isn’t quite working.

That’s where we come in.

Every home has its own logic

We begin by understanding your home—and how you live in it. Where does it lose heat? Where do you feel the draughts? What do you love, and what’s getting in the way?

From there, we develop a retrofit strategy that works for your lifestyle and your space. That might include breathable internal insulation, upgraded glazing, or simple airtightness improvements. We think carefully about materials and methods—particularly for older, solid-wall homes—so you avoid common pitfalls like trapped moisture or unnecessary loss of space.

Make it better now, without closing the door on the future

Many of our clients want to make meaningful improvements now, even if a larger extension or deeper retrofit is something they’ll consider later. That’s absolutely fine.

We’ll help you make smart, long-term decisions. Our design ensures nothing gets wasted and nothing has to be undone—so when the time comes for the next stage, your home is already one step ahead.

Less energy. More comfort. Same soul.

Our goal is to help your home feel better, without stripping away the details and proportions that make it yours. A successful light retrofit should be invisible in the best way: your rooms feel warmer, the air is fresher, the bills are lower… and yet the spirit of the house remains intact.
