    I am considering having EPS bead cavity wall insulation, and it turns out I can get a government grant for it. I have had a quote from another company as well, when I was planning to pay.

    Is there any reason NOT to go with the work using the grant (arranged via local council, then intermediate company, then the work being done by a company called Evolve www.evolvehes.co.uk)?

    I am thinking quality of work etc

    Probably standard now but worth getting the grey ones - I think 0.032W/mK rather than 0.040.

    We had our fitted through grant many years ago and had to pay a small surcharge for grey.
    Very anecdotal but the quality of the installers was good and when we found a part that hadn't filled (behind a garage) a few years later they came back and filled that too for free under CIGA.
