Explore how our retrofit services for landlords can help you.
1) Improved Tenant Comfort and Reduced Void Periods
Upgrading poorly insulated properties creates warmer, healthier homes that tenants want to stay in. Increased comfort reduces void periods, lowering turnover costs and maintaining steady rental income.
2) Lower Tenant Energy Bills
Energy-efficient upgrades cut consumption, reducing tenants’ utility bills. This makes your property more appealing, encourages timely payments, and improves tenant retention.
3) Regulatory Compliance and MEES Guidance and Futureproofing
Our retrofit solutions help landlords achieve compliance with current Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES), ensuring all rental properties meet the required EPC rating of E or above. We also prepare your portfolio for future legislation, including the proposed EPC Band C target by 2030, by implementing upgrades such as high-performance insulation, etc. Awaab’s Law is another great example of how Cyd Innovation help social landlords remain compliant to avoid dire consequences.
4) Whole Portfolio Management & End-to-end Delivery
We manage retrofits from assessment to completion, coordinating contractors across single properties or large portfolios. Landlords improve performance without the operational burden.

We identify grants and funding opportunities, providing data-driven ROI projections. Every upgrade is prioritised for impact, maximizing property value and rental yield.
