With increasing interest in the relative capital and life-cycle costs (including energy costs) of existing and new homes, housing providers are looking for innovative ways to improve the performance and popularity of existing housing stock.

PTEa has extensive experience of upgrading existing homes: street houses, pre-war mansion blocks and post-war estates. Interventions range from low-cost improvements
to energy performance, security and open space through to radical transformation and extension. Most projects involve engagement with existing communities, and many have included working around residents in occupation.
