Dedicated professionals committed to helping property owners across the United Kingdom reduce their energy expenditure.
Founded in 2014, orchard-sparrow began as a small consultancy focused on helping local businesses understand their electricity consumption.
Over the past twelve years, we have expanded our services to include residential assessments and have completed over 800 audits for clients ranging from individual homeowners to multi-site retail chains.
Our team consists of qualified energy assessors with backgrounds in building services engineering, electrical systems, and environmental management. Each team member holds relevant industry certifications and participates in ongoing professional development.
These principles guide every interaction with our clients and shape the way we conduct our assessments.
Every recommendation we make is supported by measured data from your property. We do not rely on assumptions or generic advice that may not apply to your specific situation.
We understand that not every property owner has an unlimited budget for improvements. Our reports prioritise recommendations based on return on investment, so you can start with changes that offer the greatest savings.
Our reports are detailed enough for you to implement recommendations independently or share with contractors. We include photographs, measurements, and specific product suggestions where applicable.
We employ a systematic approach that examines all aspects of energy consumption within a property.
Beginning with a review of historical consumption data, our auditors then conduct on-site measurements using calibrated equipment. This includes thermal imaging to identify heat loss, power meters to assess individual appliance consumption, and environmental sensors to evaluate heating and cooling efficiency.
The collected data is analysed against industry benchmarks and similar properties to identify where consumption exceeds expected levels. This comparative approach ensures that our recommendations target genuine inefficiencies rather than normal operational requirements.
Our assessors hold recognised industry qualifications and maintain their expertise through continuous professional development.
