Repairing or retrofitting tenement buildings can be an expensive and complicated process. 

Many of Scotland’s tenement owners want to carry out repairs, or retrofit their building to make it more energy-efficient, but lack the money and the information on how to plan ahead. 

Our 2026 toolkit gives tenement owners the knowledge they need to explore funding for tenement repair and retrofit projects. 

Written by expert housing consultant Gillian Campbell, and published by Under One Roof with help from The MCS Foundation, the toolkit explores many funding solutions for a wide variety of repair and retrofit scenarios. It gives information on how to work with your neighbours to plan and save up together. It also has a guide to grants and loans offered by Home Energy Scotland and Warmer Homes Scotland, if you would like to improve your building’s energy efficiency. Our toolkit also contains a detailed guide to Schemes of Assistance offered by local authorities, covering every council area in Scotland. 

This toolkit will help empower you to consider possible funding solutions which best suit your repair and retrofit needs. Read it now.
