Eco Homes is a version of BREEAM for use in assessing new, converted or refurbished houses or apartments.

The aim of Eco Homes is to balance environmental performance with a high quality of living and a safe, healthy internal environment. For existing buildings it offers not only an assessment but also a means of monitoring performance, allowing progress to be tracked through routine maintenance or refurbishment.

The elements encompassed by Eco Homes fall into seven categories: energy, water, pollution, materials, transport, ecology and land use and health and well being.

Many of these elements are optional, allowing the flexibility to tailor Eco Homes to individual developments or markets.
Parker Wilson has in-house staff that can provide comprehensive Eco Homes assessments.
