Those building their own eco homes will save money on energy costs, one commentator has said.
Writing for the Thisismoney website, Mark Hughes-Morgan said that due to the current financial climate it is the perfect time to build your own home.
Self-builders are enjoying more choice due to a 35 per cent increase in the number of plots available to use since the credit crunch started last summer, the report added.
Insulation, heating technology, double glazing and ventilation systems are all green homes technology available to self-builders, Stephen Evans, of architectural consultancy Erigo, told the website.
Meanwhile, it was reported by the Independent this month that those struggling with the rising costs of living can cut their power bills through the installation of double glazing windows.
The Daily Star added in a report last month that insulation and double glazing are ways that hard-up Brits struggling during the credit crunch can make their money "go further".
With Energy Efficiency products supplied as standard, homeowners can now save even more on their heating bills and reduce their carbon footprint. Visit the Safestyle website to see a range of top quality double glazed doors to suit your home.
