Understanding Home Energy Assessment costs

When people search for the cost of a Home Energy Assessment, they are usually not just looking for a price. They are looking for reassurance.

Before booking, homeowners want to know whether the assessment suits their home, what the cost covers and whether location affects the price.

This question comes up often for homeowners in Dublin and Mayo who are planning upgrades but want clarity before making any decisions.

The short answer is simple.

The cost of a Home Energy Assessment is the same in every area we service.

Your location does not affect the price.

The only factor is your house type.

A Home Energy Assessment explains how your home performs today so you can make informed decisions with confidence. You can learn more about what is included before booking.

Where your Home Energy Assessment is carried out

At Churchfield Home Services, Home Energy Assessments are carried out across Dublin and Mayo, as well as Kildare, Meath, Wicklow, Galway, Sligo and Roscommon.

Whether your home is in an urban, suburban or rural setting, the same assessment process, pricing and level of guidance applies. Distance, county or town never changes the cost.

How your Home Energy Assessment is priced

The cost of your Home Energy Assessment is based on your house type, not where you live.

Different homes take different amounts of time to assess properly. Pricing reflects:
The size and layout of your home
External surface area and exposure
Construction type and potential heat loss
Time required on site and to prepare your report
The cost of a Home Energy Assessment depends on your home type. Prices below include all applicable grants and discounts.

Apartment or Mid-Terrace : From €258

End-of-Terrace or Semi-Detached : From €349

Detached : From €399

For clarity: pricing is the same across all areas we service. Cost varies by house type only.

Not sure if a Home Energy Assessment is right for your home?

If you want to understand whether a Home Energy Assessment is suitable for your home, the best next step is to review what the assessment includes and how it works before booking.

What you receive as part of the assessment

A Home Energy Assessment is more than a visit. The cost covers a complete, structured service focused on clarity.

This includes:
A visit from a qualified energy advisor
Assessment of insulation, heating systems, ventilation and heat loss
Your current BER chart
A one to one consultation explaining how your home performs
A clear, easy to understand Home Energy Assessment report
Practical guidance on what improvements may suit your home
The real value is avoiding guesswork. Instead of spending money on changes that may not deliver results, you start with a proper understanding of how your home actually performs.

Is a Home Energy Assessment worth it for you?

Many homeowners across Dublin, Mayo and surrounding counties find the assessment worthwhile because it provides direction.

Homes feel cold or uncomfortable for different reasons. Without a proper assessment, it is easy to focus on the wrong solution whether that is insulation, heating or ventilation.

Even if you do not make changes straight away, the information remains useful. Many people use their assessment to:
Plan future improvements
Understand grant pathways
Decide what to prioritise or what not to do

What happens next?

A Home Energy Assessment is a starting point, not a sales step.

After the assessment:

You receive a clear report explaining how your home performs
You understand where heat is being lost and why
You decide what happens next in your own time

Some homeowners choose to move forward with upgrades such as insulation or heat pumps. Others pause, plan or simply keep the information for future use.

If you are unsure whether a Home Energy Assessment makes sense for your home, understanding how it is priced and what you receive is the best place to start. It gives clarity first so you can decide your next step with confidence.

John and Brenda wanted a warmer, more efficient home as they looked ahead to retirement.

“For me it was more about the cost… Brenda was more about the heat. We brought both of our reasons together and found Churchfield. Churchfield were so helpful in every area.” — John Brady
