Bancon Group Announces New Retrofit Service Offering
ABERDEEN, Scotland – [9th November, 2023] – Bancon Group is thrilled to announce the launch of its new Retrofit service. This innovative approach positions Bancon as a leading supplier in Scotland to provide a comprehensive turn-key solution for retrofitting.
The retrofit offering, a key strategic focus of Bancon Group, will be spearhead by Ray Turner, Partnerships Director. The new business stream has been established specifically to cater to the burgeoning retrofit market and based on the remarkable success of the Housing Improvement Program (HIP), a 40M retrofit programme across Aberdeenshire.
Kevin McColgan, CEO of Bancon Group, expressed his enthusiasm for the new service: “As a leading company in Scotland, it’s our duty to offer retrofit services to the vast majority of older homes owned by the council. These homes require upgrades to their insulation to ensure optimal heat retention. It’s essential that when people invest in heating their homes, these homes are equipped to retain that heat efficiently. Unfortunately, many homes currently fall short in this regard.”
Since 2018, Bancon has successfully retrofitted over 4,500 council properties, showcasing their expertise in housing refurbishment. Rooted locally, they champion community ties, employing regional talent and collaborating with local supply chains. Prioritizing client and tenant needs, Bancon offers tenant awareness initiatives and detailed resources. Their “Right First Time Philosophy” guarantees precision from surveys to execution. Coupled with deep market knowledge and efficient operational methods, Bancon stands as a frontrunner in delivering top-tier retrofit solutions.
Ray Turner commented, “Our unique position in the retrofit market allows us to provide a truly holistic solution. We handle everything for our client, from initial resident contact to insulation upgrades, EPC rating improvements, and more. The end result is a home that’s not only better insulated but also more energy-efficient.”
A recent study highlighted that two in every five occupied homes in Scotland do not meet quality standards, with the most significant shortcomings related to energy efficiency. Bancon’s new Retrofit service aims to address this gap, ensuring homes are not only comfortable but also environmentally friendly.
