Making homes more energy efficient and comfortable
Spruce is a specialist consultancy providing expert advice on retrofitting homes to make them more energy efficient and comfortable. We also provide Passivhaus Consultancy and Certification for residential and small commercial projects.
We are led by Dr Sarah Price, a highly experienced building physicist with a keen interest in all things retrofit. Our goal is to inspire and accelerate best-practice, energy-efficient retrofit in the UK so that our homes are healthy to live in and affordable to run and maintain.
