In-Home Advice

Managing your fuel spend can be difficult. Your household circumstances, your property, your lifestyle, your heating system – all can affect your bills.

That’s why we provide free home visits. Our advisors will get to know you and your property to provide tailored advice, helping you heat your home for less.

Advisors can identify ways to make your home more energy efficient as well as assess your home for damp and condensation problems. They also provide general energy saving advice that can have you saving energy and money in no time.

Arranging your free home visit:

  • Call freephone 0808 129 0888 or email heat@scarf.org.uk to arrange the most suitable day and time for a visit;
  • You’ll receive a call prior to your visit to make sure the arrangement is still convenient for you;
  • The advisor will arrive (with Scarf ID badge visible);
  • Your advisor will take a look at your property, your heating system, fuel bills and – most importantly – talk to you to find out exactly what the problems are;
  • They will then review your case and get in touch with the best solution;
  • With the support of the advisor, your problem will be resolved to the very best of our capabilities.

A home visit could be the first step to lower fuel bills and a warm, dry home.
