Advice and support for people who own their homes.

Empty properties

There are a huge variety of reasons for a house being left vacant and as a result there are no 'quick fix' solutions to the problem of empty properties

Private sector housing grants

We can sometimes provide grants and assistance for eligible homeowners, landlords and private tenants of properties within the Ipswich borough boundary.

Warm Homes Healthy People Project

Suffolk's Warm Homes Healthy People project helps vulnerable people and families make their homes cheaper to heat.

Empty Property Grants

The Council has a Private Sector Housing Renewal Policy that offers assistance to landlords and first time buyers who wish to bring a property that has been empty for longer than one year, back into use.

Drainage problems

Knowing who is responsible for clearing a blocked drain or sewer is one of the hardest parts of drainage work.

Condensation

To deal with a condensation problem effectively, you will need to keep your home ventilated, keep it warm and reduce moisture.

Energy Company Obligation (ECO)

The ECO scheme supports energy efficiency measures in the home of those considered to be in fuel poverty.
