How much could you save on energy bills?

In 2022, the Energy Saving Trust verified that insulating your floor with Q-Bot could typically save around £190 a year in a gas-heated home and around £430 a year in an electrically heated home. These are modelled figures based on a weighted average of property types and a typical heating system, at a gas price of 7.4p per kWh and an off-peak electricity price of 16.7p per kWh. Actual savings depend on your property, your heating system and how you use your home.

Do I pay VAT on underfloor insulation?

No. Installing underfloor insulation in your home is zero-rated for VAT, so there is no VAT on the installation. VAT applies only to the survey, and if you proceed with installation we credit that survey VAT, plus £25 (Premium) or £65 (Premium PLUS), against your final invoice.

Is the survey free or refundable?

The survey is not free, it is a detailed technical assessment of your floor. A Premium survey is £188.80 inc. VAT with code WARMHOME50 and Premium PLUS is £308.80 inc. VAT, with the offer ending 30 September 2026. If you go ahead with installation, we credit the survey VAT plus £25 (Premium) or £65 (Premium PLUS) against your final invoice.

How long does installation take, and how disruptive is it?

Most installations are completed in one to two days. Because our installers apply the insulation from below, we only lift a few floorboards to access the space below your floor.
