How Tilia Homes is contributing to a greener future

Dreaming of a house that’s both stunning and sustainable? At Tilia Homes, we believe that you shouldn’t have to choose between a beautiful home and a healthy planet.

That’s why we’re passionate about building energy-efficient homes that are as good for the environment as they are for your family. Here are some of the steps that we’re taking to build a greener future.

Sustainable construction

We take a fabric-first approach to energy efficiency, creating homes that are well-insulated to minimise energy needs from the very beginning. We also use modern construction methods to reduce waste, and actively reduce what we send to landfill.

Embracing renewable energy

We understand that homeowners are looking to live a more sustainable lifestyle so include energy-efficient features into our new homes. We also explore the potential of renewable energy sources on our developments, such as solar panels, ground and air source heat pumps, to lower your carbon footprint.

Did you know that compared to older properties, new builds can be up to 66% more energy efficient, saving homeowners a staggering £2,195 a year on energy bills! That's money back in your pocket and a lighter impact on the environment.

Building with the future in mind

We carefully select sites that meet the needs of both current and future residents. This means considering the local environment, protecting wildlife and making sure that our new homes seamlessly blend with the existing architectural style of the area.

We always ensure to conduct in-depth ecological assessments to understand the potential impact of each development and always make sure that we build responsibly.

Introducing zero-bills homes


Taking our commitment a step further, we’ve partnered with Octopus Energy to offer our innovating Zero Bills Homes. These homes are equipped with cutting-edge green technology, including solar panels, air-sourced heat pumps and home battery systems.
