Plan your home upgrades the smart way
Whether it’s draughts, insulation, or a heat pump, we’ll help you take the next step with confidence – and make sure it works with the bigger picture.
It’s natural to fix the most obvious problem – a cold room, a draughty window, or an old boiler. But homes work as systems, and changes in one place affect the rest.
That’s why it pays to plan. With the right guidance, you can start small and go at your own pace – knowing every upgrade adds up to a home that’s warmer, healthier, and more efficient.
Why a whole house approach matters
Quick fixes don’t always solve the problem. A new boiler without insulation may still leave your home cold. Blocking draughts without ventilation can cause damp.
A whole house approach avoids these pitfalls. By looking at the whole home, you can make upgrades in the right order, avoid costly mistakes, and build comfort that lasts.
“Maybe you know what you want, or just need a bit of advice to get started. Why not book your free consultation and have a chat with one of our advisers?”

The Whole House Plan
This is where our Whole House Plan comes in. It’s a tailored roadmap created by a qualified Retrofit Coordinator, based on your home and your needs.
Your plan shows you what to prioritise now, what to plan for later, and how to make sure improvements work together. It includes:
- a full assessment of your home’s energy performance
- clear recommendations for upgrades
- indicative costs and savings
- a sensible roadmap that can be phased over time
It’s not a sales pitch. It’s independent guidance you can trust – a strategy for making your home more comfortable, more efficient, and better prepared for the future.
Why Cosy Homes Oxfordshire?
Because we believe retrofit – the process of upgrading your home to make it more energy efficient, comfortable, and low-carbon – is about more than chasing quick fixes. We know Oxfordshire homes, from stone cottages and Victorian terraces to post-war semis and modern builds, and we work with vetted local contractors to make sure the work is done properly.
How it works
Step 1 | Start with a plan
Many homeowners choose to begin with a Whole House Plan – a detailed home visit from a qualified Retrofit Assessor who will look at how your home performs, understand your goals, and consider how you use your space and energy. From there, we create a tailored roadmap to guide your next steps.
Not sure if a full plan is right for you? No problem – we’ll help you explore the best way to get started.
Step 2 | Make informed choices
We’ll help you weigh up your options and decide what’s right for your home. If you choose to go ahead, we can prepare technical specifications and gather quotes from vetted local installers – so you can move forward without pressure or guesswork.
Step 3 | Move forward with confidence
When you’re ready to take action, we’ll support you every step of the way – from coordinating works to quality checks and sign-off. It’s all about making sure the work is done properly and delivers the results you’re looking for.
Start small, plan big
No retrofit journey is a straight line. You don’t have to do everything at once – but with a Whole House Plan you’ll know the right order, the right standard, and the right people to trust.
So why not book a free consultation with Arantxa, one of our experienced Retrofit Advisers. She’ll listen, discuss your goals, and help you decide the best next steps – with no pressure and no commitment.
