Self builders lead the way in sustainable building and energy efficiency

Rising energy bills, combined with a tough economic climate and a Government drive to reduce carbon emissions mean that creating an energy-efficient home has never been so important. And with a whole range of eco options on the market, its easier than ever to build green and achieve a house that’s comfortable to live in, economical to run, and has a reduced impact on the environment.

If you are thinking about, planning or currently building or improving your own home, whether it’s a new build, renovation, or some major retro-fitting you will no doubt have considered the endless options for creating a sustainable and energy efficient home. And you’re not alone, as it is no longer just a ‘wish-option’ to be energy-efficient. At this year’s Big Green Home Show, you can sit in on seminars and get one-to-one advice from industry experts on the latest legislation, regulations and Government schemes and how they will affect your project.

Every year, thousands of visitors flock to the Show, hosted at the National Self Build & Renovation Centre, and this year will be no different. With expert advice, seminars, and hundreds of products, the fourth annual Big Green Home Show, will give you all the information and advice you need about the products and services available, to help you separate the facts from the ‘green-wash’.

You’ll find invaluable expert advice on the essential eco elements to help you decide what’s best for your home and your pocket and there’s guidance on everything from insulation and legislation to eco building systems and natural products; designing your new home to sourcing your eco products; and funding your project to heating your new home.

Verdi Taylor, of the National Self Build & Renovation Centre, explains: “Self builders have long been pioneers of innovative products and modern methods of Construction (MMC), and it’s no different with energy efficient and renewable products. But, as you will discover at the Big Green Home Show, building green is not just about installing a ground source heat pump or fixing a few solar panels to your roof. A truly green house requires a whole-house approach, so it is vital that you understand the technology and match it to your lifestyle and energy requirements, and learn how the various products can work together to give you maximum benefit. You can do all this under one roof at this year’s Big Green Home Show.”

 “The appeal of building a home from scratch or transforming your current home has always been getting a house that is uniquely designed to your own specifications. Now, you also need and want your energy bills to be as pleasing to look at as the home itself. If you are committed to a home that is more economical to run, then visit the Big Green Home show at the end of October. You will find free expert advice and guidance on the essential eco elements along with a wealth of seminars, products, new technology, systems and services, all on hand and designed to help you achieve an energy efficient and more sustainable home. It’s theUK’s brightest eco exhibition, and could help you save pounds as well as the planet.”
