Energy Performance Certificates

Energy Performance Certificates (EPC) give information to home owners and tenants about the home’s energy efficiency – using A to G ratings.

The certificate may make recommendations for cost-effective improvements that can be made to help cut the cost of fuel bills and carbon emissions within the property.

From 1st October 2008, if you are renting out your property, you will need to provide a certificate to any prospective tenant. There is no need to obtain a EPC for an existing tenancy.

Once obtained, a certificate remains valid for up to 10 years. If a valid EPC still exists when changing tenants no new certificate is required. This applies to both private and social sector landlords and tenants.

As part of our service we will arrange all aspects of the EPC for our landlords.
