UNDER-PERFORMING HOMES
Hard to keep warm, expensive to run...
If you've found my website, you likely already know what an under-performing home is. The unfortunate reality of Australia's housing situation is that there are far too many people in your boat. And when searching for solutions, there's an ocean of information out there. And schools of sharks trying to sell you a paddle! Tired of this analogy yet? Let me help you. Together we can find the land of better performing homes (sorry).
"where to begin?"
HOME ENERGY ASSESSMENTS
Start your home-performance journey on the right foot.
See through the greenwashing and unfounded eco-claims. Make sure you're getting qualified, un-biased advice, that's backed by science (not marketing).
Residential Efficiency Scorecard
An innovative, government-backed program that assesses homes for energy efficiency and comfort. The assessment outcomes include an official certificate and a star rating for your home, with detailed advice on how to improve this rating and increase your home's liveability.
Home Energy Handbook
In addition to your Scorecard Certificate, I provide you with a handbook containing tailored recommendations, a resource guide and a deeper dive into home energy performance topics. Written specifically for your home and your situation, this document will serve as a valuable resource for your home liveability journey.
In-Home Assessments
I come to you to hear how your home works (and doesn't work) from its expert - you.
Unbiased Advice
I am completely independent and operate with your best interests in mind (the only thing I sell is my advice!).
Expert Opinion
Having both formal training and lived-experience in home energy and building science, I am well placed to answer your questions.

HIGH PERFORMANCE HOMES
When the bare minimum simply doesn't cut it
We're blessed with a mild climate in most parts of Australia. But it's made our building industry complacent and our standards poor. We should have higher expectations for our houses. For a house to truly be a home, it needs to be the following:
healthy
Liveable homes maintain comfortable temperatures all year round. Healthy homes also control humidity, prevent mould growth, and ensure you have fresh air to breathe.
affordable
Keeping your home healthy and comfortable shouldn't be a luxury. A more efficient home relieves cost of living pressures so there's more left in the budget for good times.
responsible
Responsible choices minimise our impact on the earth. Renewable energy and sustainable practices help keep climate change at bay. In summary, 'doing your bit'.
resilient
Homes are more resilient when they can withstand climate extremes (and rising energy prices). The cheapest and ‘greenest’ energy is the energy we don’t use.
