With hundreds of listed buildings at risk currently, and thousands more predicted to be at risk in the coming years, protecting these ailing structures is an important aspect of our mission.
Due to the nature of preservation efforts and conservation areas, it can be very difficult to carry out works that improve the long-term health of these properties.
Often requiring:
- Extensive planning permission that requires an expensive process and a multi-year lead on from the initial proposal as the planned works are considered.
- A specialist in renovation works pertaining to listed buildings/historic sites, who is frequently in high demand due to the rarity of the specific skillset
- Unique measures that can often be denied due to the potential damage or complications that come from installing them in older properties
Measures such as our own secondary glazing window technology can help ensure that these energy-inefficient buildings survive for years to come. As is often the case, Flutter Shutter can be installed without significant delays due to planning and risk assessment considerations.
As a non-intrusive energy-efficiency retrofit measure, Flutter Shutter can be installed in these properties with minimal impact on the surrounding structure. Enabling improved energy efficiency and results on an EPC rating within months not years.
That is part of what makes Flutter Shutter such an effective piece of technology for our clients and business partners!
