One Stop Shop
There is no single figure. A One Stop Shop bundles the grants for all the upgrades your home needs and takes them off your bill upfront. SEAI's One Stop Shop amounts include up to €10,500 for a heat pump system (€8,500 for an apartment), up to €2,000 for central heating works (€1,000 for an apartment), a €2,000 boiler scrappage grant, attic insulation from €1,100 to €2,000 (€1,400 to €2,500 for first-time buyers), external wall insulation from €3,000 to €8,000, windows from €1,500 to €4,000, a €350 home energy assessment and project management from €800 to €2,000.

What it is
Managed deep retrofit, one contractor handles it all. Your home must reach a BER of at least B, plus either get a heat pump or improve its primary energy use by 100 kWh/m²/yr. The Traditional Homes Pilot does not require a BER of B. The One Stop Shop works out how. A whole-home upgrade can include new windows and doors as part of the works. Homeowners, first-time buyers, private landlords and approved housing bodies can use this route.
Who can get it
- You want a complete home upgrade managed for you, rather than doing measures one at a time
- The upgrade brings your home to a BER of at least B plus a heat pump or a primary energy improvement of 100 kWh/m²/yr, usually through several measures together. The Traditional Homes Pilot does not require a BER of B.
- It suits any home type, from apartments to detached houses, built and occupied before 2011. Homeowners, first-time buyers, private landlords and Approved Housing Bodies can apply, with different grant amounts for Approved Housing Bodies. Traditional homes and heritage buildings (typically built before 1940) go through a separate Traditional Homes Pilot: a whole-house upgrade through a One Stop Shop that offers traditional homes services, with a Traditional Building Professional overseeing the works
- An SEAI registered One Stop Shop handles the lot: the home assessment, the grant application, the contractors, the follow-up BER and finance support through the Home Energy Upgrade Loan Scheme if you need it.
- The grants are taken off the cost upfront, so you pay the balance rather than the full price.
- SEAI says the average BER uplift is from D to A. The requirement is a BER of at least B after the works. The Traditional Homes Pilot does not have that requirement.
- Through a One Stop Shop the heat pump system grant is up to €10,500 (€8,500 for an apartment). Central heating works can get up to €2,000 (€1,000 for an apartment) and there is a €2,000 boiler scrappage grant where an oil or gas boiler, an electric storage system or a solid fuel system is removed, or where a home without central heating gets a heat pump. An air to air heat pump gets €7,500. Replacing an existing heat pump that was not grant-aided gets up to €6,500 (€4,500 for an apartment), with no boiler scrappage or central heating grant.
- If a full upgrade is too much at once, you can do the individual grants step by step instead.
- A One Stop Shop can claim some grants you cannot get on your own: floor insulation (€3,500), rafter insulation (€1,500 to €3,000), mechanical ventilation (€1,500), air tightness (€1,000), a €350 home energy assessment and project management (€2,000 detached, €1,600 semi-detached or end of terrace, €1,200 mid-terrace, €800 apartment).
- SEAI says your home is not eligible if it has already had SEAI grants for the same measures or if you have received energy credits through the Energy Efficiency Obligation Scheme (EEOS). SEAI's One Stop Shop scheme guidelines (version 5.2, May 2026) say private landlords can use the scheme for their tenants' homes but corporate landlords are not eligible for a One Stop Shop upgrade.
- First-time buyers get a higher attic insulation grant: €2,500 detached, €1,900 semi-detached or end of terrace, €1,800 mid-terrace, €1,400 apartment. You must own and live in the home, it must be a second-hand home built and occupied before 2011 that you bought on or after 1 January 2025 and you must not have bought a home before. The higher rate is for attic insulation only.
- SEAI's July 2026 FAQ says the Heat Loss Indicator threshold of 2.3 no longer applies when a heat pump is installed through a One Stop Shop.
