Glasgow-based energy services firm Union Technical has commenced work to retrofit more than 300 homes in Dumfries.
Work has begun this week on a £1.5m upgrade of the four-in-a-block sandstone flats at the town’s Sandside Estate, which were constructed in the 1930s.
Over the next four months, Union Technical will work to install internal wall insulation, ventilation systems and heating controls to improve thermal efficiency and help tenants make substantial savings on their energy bills.
