Insurance
What it is
We are fully insured, including public liability and cover for our labour-only operatives. Certificates are available on request.
What our accreditations do not cover
PAS 2030 certification covers cavity wall and loft insulation only. It does not apply to solar, batteries or EV chargers. Solar and batteries are covered by our MCS certificate, and EV chargers are not covered by either scheme. We would rather say that plainly than let a logo imply more.
Extract Energy is a trading name of Extract Insulation Ltd, registered in England no. 09462745.
