Frequently asked questions
Do ESA or PIP automatically qualify me for grants in L68?
Receiving Employment and Support Allowance (ESA) or Personal Independence Payment (PIP) does not automatically guarantee a Warm Homes Plan grant. Eligibility also requires that your L68 property has an EPC rating of D, E, F or G. If both conditions are met, you are very likely to qualify. Submit the form to check your specific circumstances.
Which disability benefits are recognised for the Warm Homes Plan?
Employment and Support Allowance (ESA) and Personal Independence Payment (PIP) are recognised qualifying benefits for the Warm Homes Plan. Disability Living Allowance (DLA) and Attendance Allowance may also qualify under specific eligibility routes. The free eligibility check will confirm which route applies to your household.
What improvements are available to disability benefit households in L68?
Eligible L68 households receiving disability benefits can apply for loft insulation, cavity wall insulation, solid wall insulation, underfloor insulation, air source or ground source heat pumps, and smart heating controls, subject to property suitability.
Can I apply if I rent my home?
Yes, tenants receiving disability benefits can apply, provided their landlord gives written consent. Submit the form and we will explain the process, including how to approach your landlord for the required permission.
What if my home already has some insulation?
Partial insulation does not necessarily disqualify you. If your property still has an EPC rating of D or below, you may qualify for additional measures. The free survey will assess what further improvements are possible and whether they qualify for Warm Homes Plan funding.
Is the eligibility check free?
Yes. The online check is free and takes about 60 seconds. There is no obligation to proceed at any stage. An approved installer will contact you to arrange a free home survey if you pre-qualify.
