What is Warmworks’ role?

We are dedicated to providing affordable warmth to homes across the country, providing a first-class service to our customers, and making a lasting impact in the communities where we work and live.

Find out how we do that in our video below.

Warmworks is a Managing Agent – but what does that mean?

In most of the projects we are responsible for, the aim is to provide more affordable warmth in people’s homes, and our role is that of a Managing Agent.

This means we manage the end-to-end installation and quality inspection of heating, insulation and energy efficiency improvements in our customers’ homes.  In most cases, we will arrange for a home survey to look at what work needs to be done, before discussing it in detail at a technical survey. We will arrange for one of our local, registered and accredited sub-contractors to carry out the work. After it is complete, we will typically arrange an independent inspection to ensure that all the work meets our high safety and quality standards.

How is Warmworks supporting the transition to net zero?

Our work is a key part of the drive to reduce carbon emissions and the transition to a net zero society.  Our aim is to ensure that this transition to low carbon living, with its rapid shift towards new, renewable technologies in people’s homes includes everyone, especially those who need extra help and support to adapt to change.

What is Warmworks’ role in supporting local communities?

We recognise we have a role in supporting the communities in which we work and live. This has meant working to create jobs and training opportunities, supporting communities with approaches tailored to their needs, and leaving a real, lasting legacy.  Since we were founded in 2015, we have supported the creation of more than 150 apprenticeships in our supply chain, more than 700 jobs, and over 3,000 training opportunities.
