EPCs

Whether you’re residing in a cosy bungalow, a modern flat or a spacious house, energy efficiency should be at the forefront of your domestic living. Our Domestic Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) are your gateway to creating a sustainable living space. They are a legal requirement when selling, letting, or building any form of residential property in the UK.

These certificates provide a comprehensive analysis of your property’s energy use and carbon dioxide emissions, resulting in a rating from A (highly efficient) to G (least efficient). But they go beyond just ratings. Your Domestic EPC will also provide a clear roadmap for enhancing your home’s energy efficiency – be it through insulation upgrades in your bungalow, boiler improvements in your flat, or renewable energy installations in your house.

Aided by a team of accredited Domestic Energy Assessors, we conduct meticulous surveys of properties of all types – bungalows, flats, and houses – assessing crucial elements such as size, layout, construction, heating, ventilation, and lighting systems. Count on us to illuminate the path towards an energy-efficient, eco-friendly home.

An EPC, which stands for Energy Performance Certificate, is a document that provides information on the energy efficiency of a building. The EPC rates the building on a scale from A to G, with A being the most energy-efficient and G being the least. The certificate takes into account various factors such as the age and construction of the building, its heating and cooling systems, and insulation. EPCs are mandatory for any building being sold, leased or constructed, and they help potential buyers and tenants to assess the energy efficiency of a property and its likely running costs.

In addition to providing information on the energy efficiency of a building, EPCs also include recommendations on how to improve the property’s energy performance. These recommendations may include suggestions such as installing insulation, upgrading heating and cooling systems, and improving lighting efficiency. By implementing these recommendations, property owners can make their buildings more energy-efficient and reduce their running costs, as well as their carbon footprint.

EPCs were introduced as part of the UK government’s efforts to reduce carbon emissions and combat climate change. They are an important tool for encouraging property owners and tenants to take steps to reduce their energy consumption and carbon footprint. By providing clear and concise information on the energy efficiency of a property and actionable recommendations on how to improve it, EPCs are helping to create a more sustainable built environment.

If you fail to obtain an EPC, you could be liable for a fine. The fines for not having an EPC can vary, and it’s important to understand the consequences of not having one.

The fines for not having an EPC can be quite substantial. For homeowners, the fine can be up to £5,000, while for commercial property owners, the fine can be up to £150,000. These fines can be issued by the local authorities and are designed to encourage property owners to comply with EPC regulations. It’s worth noting that the fines are based on the rateable value of the property and the length of time you’ve been without an EPC.

It’s important to understand that not having an EPC can also have an impact on your ability to sell or rent out your property. Potential buyers or tenants are likely to ask for an EPC as part of their due diligence process. Without an EPC, they may be less inclined to consider your property, which could result in a longer period of vacancy or a lower selling price. Therefore, obtaining an EPC is not only a legal requirement but also an essential part of the selling or renting process.
