BREEAM Refurbishment for domestic buildings has been launched following a pilot scheme involving more than 200 homes. The assessment method is suitable for use on projects from home improvements, such as replacing windows and fitting new insulation, to developments, whether multiple to single dwellings. It has also been developed to align with the government’s green deal, the incentive scheme for energy efficiency improvements. It pinpoints those elements of the refurbishment that will bring the greatest returns and provides a methodology, software tool and certification for those responsible for the delivery of sustainable domestic refurbishment projects. As well as addressing overall sustainability issues, the scheme can help specific initiatives to tackle fuel poverty, reduce flooding and security risks, and enhance the health and wellbeing of tenants and householders. The BREEAM Domestic Refurbishment technical manual is now available on the BREEAM website, along with case studies from some of the pilot projects.
