Its the usual with these grants, they get the absolute cowboys to do the jobs and they seem to be the only folk to be allowed to do them. It should be a grant that you should allow anyone to do it and as long as they are registered in that field they can claim the grant.

there's such a huge issue with whatever the process looks like for getting accredited under these schemes - a huge number of qualified contractors are still trying to offer me spray foam with zero consideration for moisture management
the other issue is companies like everwarm who just scale their prices along with whatever support is available, regardless of costs

scottish government have just announced £7.5k grants available for insulating homes
I've contacted about 5 firms who qualify for the scheme to ask if any of them offer hygroscopic external wall insulation. Sadly, suspect the answer of all 5 will be 'no'.
