PAS 2035 Retrofit Assessments in Cornwall

When undertaking government-funded energy efficiency improvements or large-scale decarbonisation projects, compliance with the PAS 2035 standard is mandatory. At Harpr Surveyors, we act as your trusted, independent Retrofit Assessors on the ground. We provide comprehensive, highly accurate property data to homeowners, installers, and Retrofit Coordinators across Cornwall, ensuring your project starts on a solid foundation of facts.

What is a PAS 2035 Retrofit Assessment?

Before any deep retrofit work can begin, a thorough evaluation of the property must take place. As certified Retrofit Assessors, our job is not to design the final improvement plan, that is the role of the Retrofit Coordinator. Instead, our role is to accurately capture the "current state" of the dwelling so your Coordinator has the exact data they need to specify the right energy-saving measures safely.

Our Retrofit Assessment Process

1. The Energy Report (RdSAP)

We conduct a rigorous appraisal of the property’s current energy performance. Using the Reduced Data Standard Assessment Procedure (RdSAP), we model the building’s thermal elements, heating systems, and existing insulation to establish its baseline energy rating.

2. The Condition Report

Adding insulation or altering ventilation in a poorly maintained building can lead to disastrous consequences like condensation and mould. We conduct a thorough visual inspection of the property to identify any existing defects, damp issues, or structural vulnerabilities that need to be addressed before retrofit measures are installed.

3. The Occupancy Assessment

A building does not use energy; the people inside it do. We interview the current residents and review past utility bills to understand their heating patterns, hot water usage, and daily routines. This ensures the final retrofit design is tailored to how the occupants actually live.
