If you require an EPC then we can usually arrange for one of our assessors to visit your property within hours. Once the assessment is completed, you will receive your certificate once payment has been received. There are no up-front payments before the survey, but the EPC will only be issued once we have received your payment. We can help you get an accredited EPC survey from one of our professional energy assessors for the most competitive prices available in the market.

How long does an EPC assessment take? Existing insulation is measured and compared against current standards: Loft insulation - The average depth of loft insulation is measured. Cavity wall insulation - The existing cavity wall is examined externally, either visually or by looking inside the cavity to determine whether insulation is present. Double glazing - The doors and windows will be checked for double glazing. Back to top Back to main EPC page. Useful Links What does the domestic energy assessment involve?
Away from the actual visit, there are also some other misconceptions surrounding the EPC itself, lets cover some of those as well: A common misconception for landlords is that an electrical safety inspection is sufficient and that an EPC is not required. This is incorrect — an EPC is always required if you are letting out your property, or if you are selling it. There may be certain situations where the EPC becomes invalid, usually due to modifications to the property or changes to the areas that are being let, but generally if a property has an EPC dated within the last 10 years you will not need a new one for sales and lettings.
