Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and window efficiency went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
