What It Is
Some improvements need other work first or afterwards, such as roof repairs before solar PV, scaffolding, or redecoration after internal wall insulation. We scope enabling works alongside the main measure so the whole project is quoted clearly. Roofing remains its own trade, and standalone roofing is not presented as an energy improvement.
Why It Matters
An energy improvement is only as good as the condition it is fitted into. Identifying enabling works early avoids surprises and delays.
- Clear scope for the whole project
- Roof checked before panels go on
- Making good included where needed
- Separated from the main measure on the quotation
