If you want to grow your building business, retrofit can help you get there.
In this episode of the Build Up podcast, we break down what retrofit really means and why it’s becoming essential knowledge for small builders. Our guest, Rachael Owens of the National Retrofit Hub, explains how understanding retrofit can help you win more jobs, meet client needs, and support the UK’s energy goals.
Whether you’re already upgrading windows, improving insulation or fitting better heating systems, chances are you’re doing retrofit work without calling it that. By framing it properly, you can add more value for your clients and set your business apart.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
- What retrofit is and why it matters for your business
- How to talk about retrofit with clients and build trust
- Practical ways to add value without overcomplicating your projects
- Why SME builders play a vital role in the UK’s net zero future
