Buying your first home can be a daunting experience, especially if you need to make renovations soon after moving in. Erin was aware her new Bridgewater home could do with some improvements, but with so many options out there it was hard to know where to start.

“We were struggling with skyrocketing energy costs that were straining our budget,” she explains. “It was overwhelming not knowing where to start in making our home more energy-efficient, and we were hesitant to invest in solutions due to uncertainty about the process and the costs associated with choosing clean energy updates.”

Clean Energy Financing  was the perfect solution for Erin as she didn’t just need to make her home more affordable to live in, she wanted expert advice to ensure she was making the right decisions. Steve Fairbairn, Our Manager of Energy Programs,  worked with Erin to recommend upgrades that suited her home.

“Working with Steve and the Clean Energy Financing Program was truly transformative for us,” she says. “Steve guided us every step of the way, offering detailed reports and honest recommendations that were perfectly suited to our needs. His genuine concern for finding the most effective solutions to save us money in the long term was evident from the start.”

Erin has already noticed a difference in her home and can see the positive impact the upgrades are having on her energy bills.

“Thanks to the program’s low-interest financing options, we were able to implement energy-saving upgrades that have made a significant impact on reducing our energy bills,” she adds. “Now, not only are we enjoying financial savings, but we’re also proud to contribute to a cleaner environment.”

I don’t love “ended up” – I think it could make it sound like it was the last resort option. [KD1]

Not sure if this is in there by mistake, or if you were planning to introduce who Steve is before the next quote. [KD2]
