Defective Concrete Block (DCB) affected homeowners can apply for SEAI home energy upgrade grants.

Grants are available to these homeowners under the same criteria as all other homeowners who are not affected with DCB. For DCB affected homeowners who are rebuilding their homes, if your original home was built prior to 2011, you will be eligible for a home energy upgrade grant. See Home Energy Upgrade Grants for information on the grant options available.

The Expert Report on DCB Scheme highlighted the importance that there be a ‘seamless’ inclusion of the SEAI grant during the remediation stage as many homeowners wish to have upgraded their dwellings in order to achieve enhanced energy performances. SEAI is working with Housing Agency, DECC and DHLGH to implement a process for homeowners.
