Green Energy and EPC Services Ltd is committed to providing customers with a professional, reliable and high-quality service.

We recognise that occasionally things may go wrong or a customer may be dissatisfied with an aspect of our service. When this happens, we want to know about it.

We take complaints seriously and will investigate complaints fairly and objectively. We will seek to resolve issues as quickly as reasonably possible and use customer feedback to improve our services.

3. Accessibility

If you require assistance making a complaint or need us to communicate with you in a different format, please tell us.

We will make reasonable efforts to accommodate your communication requirements.

4. Acknowledging Your Complaint

We aim to resolve complaints as quickly as possible.

Where we are able to resolve your complaint immediately, we will try to do so.

Where the complaint cannot be resolved immediately, we will acknowledge it and arrange for the matter to be investigated.

Where applicable, we will tell you:

  • who is dealing with your complaint;
  • whether we need further information from you; and
  • what the next stage of our investigation will involve.

For complaints that fall within applicable Financial Conduct Authority complaint-handling requirements, where the complaint has not been resolved within three business days, the relevant written acknowledgement and complaint-handling requirements will be followed.

5. Investigating Your Complaint

We will investigate your complaint fairly and objectively.

Depending on the nature of the matter, we may:

  • review quotations, contracts and invoices;
  • examine assessment or survey records;
  • review installation documentation;
  • examine photographs and other project evidence;
  • review emails, letters and other correspondence;
  • speak with relevant employees;
  • consult installers or subcontractors;
  • consult Domestic Energy Assessors, Retrofit Assessors or Retrofit Coordinators;
  • review accreditation, certification or TrustMark records;
  • contact another organisation involved in the project;
  • ask you to provide further information; or
  • arrange an inspection of the property where reasonably necessary.

Where an inspection is required, we ask that reasonable access to the property is provided.

6. Our Response

We aim to resolve complaints as quickly as reasonably possible.

Some complaints may require technical investigation, a site inspection or information from another organisation and may therefore take longer to resolve.

We will keep you reasonably informed where there is a significant delay.

Once our investigation has been completed, we will provide an appropriate response setting out:

  • the matters we investigated;
  • our findings;
  • whether we uphold the complaint in whole or in part;
  • any action we propose to take; and
  • any further complaint or escalation route that may apply.

7. Putting Things Right

Where our investigation determines that we are responsible for an error or failure, we will consider an appropriate remedy.

Depending on the circumstances, this may include:

  • providing an explanation;
  • issuing an apology;
  • correcting documentation;
  • correcting an assessment or record where appropriate;
  • arranging a further inspection;
  • undertaking remedial work;
  • repeating part of a service;
  • providing additional information or guidance; or
  • another remedy that is reasonable and appropriate to the circumstances.

Any remedy will be subject to applicable contractual, regulatory, accreditation, certification, warranty and scheme requirements.

8. Complaints Relating to EPC and Energy Assessment Services

If your complaint relates to an Energy Performance Certificate, Domestic Energy Assessment or the conduct of an accredited Domestic Energy Assessor, we will investigate the complaint in accordance with our own procedures and any applicable requirements of the assessor's accreditation scheme.

Where appropriate, you may also be entitled to escalate the complaint to the relevant Energy Assessor Accreditation Scheme.

We can provide details of the relevant accreditation scheme where required.

9. Complaints Relating to Retrofit or Installation Work

Where your complaint concerns a Retrofit Assessment, Retrofit Coordination service or energy-efficiency installation, we will investigate it in accordance with this policy and any applicable requirements of:

  • PAS 2030;
  • PAS 2035;
  • TrustMark;
  • our Scheme Provider;
  • an accreditation or certification body;
  • a guarantee provider;
  • an energy supplier;
  • a local authority; or
  • the applicable funding scheme.

Where a further dispute-resolution process applies, we will provide information about the appropriate escalation route.

10. Complaints Relating to TrustMark Work

Where the relevant service or installation was carried out under a TrustMark-registered arrangement, the complaint should normally be raised with Green Energy and EPC Services Ltd in the first instance.

If the complaint cannot be resolved through our internal process, you may be able to escalate it through the relevant Scheme Provider and, where eligible, through the applicable independent dispute-resolution procedure.

The appropriate route will depend on the circumstances of the project and the applicable scheme.

11. Complaints Relating to Products Purchased via Finance – If You Remain Dissatisfied

If we do not issue a final response within eight weeks, or if you are not satisfied with the outcome or progress of the complaint, you have the right to refer your complaint to the credit provider/s and/or the Financial Ombudsman Service.

On the rare occasion that we do receive a complaint, we take it very seriously. If you have an issue with a product purchased via finance and we have been unable to resolve your issue, please contact TradeHelp Ltd using the following details:
