Since 2017 I have been helping homeowners in the Victoria area, understand how they can make their home more energy efficient and help them access Grants and Rebates.
​
Over 750 energy evaluations later, I have learned a few things about what makes a house more energy efficient. Our incredibly sophisticated software is my secret weapon. Its helps me help you prioritize your upgrades - which have marginal impact and the best bang for you buck.
This helps you make decisions, reduce energy bills, save energy and help our environment.
​
I think its important to treat every home and homeowner with kindness and respect. Its also valuable to communicate clearly, consisely and at the level that works for you. I will share as much or as little as you want to know.I love pets and kids so you dont have to worry about that. You can all remain at home while I do my thing.

Michel was very prompt, professional, thorough and personable during both his service visits. I also really appreciated the concise and comprehensive instructions and plethora of informative links he provided in his initial email. I would highly recommend his energy advisory services.
