Survey Day in London What to Expect when Your Home is Checked for a Boiler Grant

1. SURVEY DAY IN LONDON: WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN YOUR HOME IS CHECKED FOR A BOILER GRANT

2. WHY THE SURVEY MATTERS Once you have applied for a free boiler grant in London, the next big step is the home survey. Quite a few people feel apprehensive about this part of the process, so let's walk through what actually happens and what you can expect on the day. At Getafreeboiler, we want it to be simple, stress-free, and very clear from the beginning how your application goes forward. The survey is where we confirm the details you have provided and see if your home meets the ECO4 requirements. It isn't an inspection in the formal or intimidating sense. Think of it more like a practical visit in which an accredited surveyor will gather the information they need to move your application to installation.

3. WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE SURVEYOR ARRIVES • A qualified surveyor will visit your home at a time convenient for you. They’ll take a look at the current heating setup, the condition of your boiler, and any insulation already in place. They’ll ask a few simple questions about how your home heats up, how old the boiler is, and whether you’ve noticed any issues with performance. • You don't need to organise the space or clean the whole house. So long as the surveyor has access to the boiler, pipework, loft (if any, where insulation is to be checked), and other relevant areas, the survey will be smoothly undertaken. Most surveys take approximately 30 to 60 minutes. • What They Check During the Visit • The focus is to understand whether your property qualifies under the scheme. That includes: • The age and condition of your existing boiler • Energy efficiency rating of your home • Existing levels of insulation • Safety and suitability for installation • Evidence of benefit eligibility (occasionally requested) • If your property uses electric heating, the surveyor may also check whether, depending on the circumstances, other support might apply, such as storage heater grants in London.

4. WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE SURVEY Once the survey is complete, we review the results and confirm your eligibility. If everything is approved, we'll contact you to arrange your free installation date. If the survey highlights an issue, such as limited access or a lack of insulation, we'll talk you through the next steps and help you resolve it wherever possible. Our goal is to support you through the whole process so that you never feel unsure about what comes next. Ready to Get Started?
