Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs)

Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) are a European Initiative designed to help improve the energy efficiency of buildings. The certificate provides 'A' to 'G' ratings for the building, with 'A' being the most energy efficient and 'G' being the least, with the average up to now being 'D'. The EPC also comes with a report explaining the findings and suggesting possible improvements to improve the buildings energy efficiency.

Energy Performance Certificate

From October 2008 EPCs are required whenever a building is built, sold or rented and it is mandatory for landlords to make Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) available to new tenants as part of the lettings process. Each EPC will last for 10 years. If you are renting or selling a home you now need a certificate by law.

If you are an estate agent or property related company looking for a large number of EPCs please contact us for a quote.
