Retrofit for Social Housing

Helping housing associations and local authorities make confident, compliant retrofit decisions across their whole stock
Retrofit for Social Housing

Social housing retrofit, at scale

Clear and compliant retrofit strategies for social housing providers

Social housing providers are being asked to deliver retrofit at pace, while keeping up with constantly evolving policy and regulation.

Regulation is tightening, MEES compliance is coming. Funding is complex and time-bound. Decisions made now affect residents, assets and long-term compliance.

To move forward with confidence, providers need clarity across their whole stock, not fragmented, scheme-by-scheme decisions.

Domna supports social housing providers with independent insight and clear social housing retrofit strategies, designed to turn ambition into costed, deliverable options across entire portfolios.

How we support social housing providers

We support social housing providers to plan and deliver retrofit with confidence.

Insight

A clear understanding of your stock, risk and priorities across entire portfolios.

Strategy

Clear, compliant retrofit strategies aligned to policy, funding and delivery.

Delivery support 

Assurance, governance and coordination to help work get done once, and done properly.

Compliance without compromise

Meeting new MEES EPC targets shouldn't feel like a gamble.

New Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES) are coming into affect for all social rented homes in England. Under the new regulation, all socially rented homes will need to achieve an EPC C equivalent under reformed metrics by 2030.

Social housing providers need a retrofit strategy that can help them reach this new regulation and make decisions that align with new compliance pressures.

Compliance without compromise

Portfolio Assessment

We start by using our remote assessment software, Ara, to model your homes to help you create a solid retrofit strategy.

Onsite Surveys & Retrofit Design

Certified assessors carry out PAS 2035-compliant surveys. Retrofit Designers then create tailored plans based on building condition, occupancy, and improvement targets.

We help unlock grant funding through schemes like WHSHF – and can support custom finance strategies if needed.

Installer Match & Project Delivery

We assign accredited installers from our trusted network and coordinate works to ensure quality, compliance, and minimal disruption to residents.

Evaluation & Sign-Off

Retrofit Coordinators oversee each project to completion, providing full documentation, post-installation evaluation, and handover reporting.
