In simple terms: no valid EPC can mean no sale, no tenancy, and possible penalties. Our job is to make sure that never becomes your problem.
Who Needs an EPC?
If you’re asking, “Do I need an EPC?” the answer is almost always yes if:
You’re a homeowner planning to sell or remortgage
You’re a landlord starting a new tenancy or renewing a tenancy
You’re a property manager dealing with multiple flats, houses or mixed-use buildings
You’re a developer with new-builds or conversions
You’re a professional advisor (estate agent, mortgage broker, solicitor) supporting clients who must stay compliant
If the building is being marketed for sale or rent, or has just been built or significantly altered, an EPC is almost always required.
Not sure? Tell us what you’re planning, and we’ll confirm whether you need one and what type.
How Does an EPC Assessment Work?
If you’ve never booked an EPC before, it can sound more complicated than it really is. Here’s how our process works from start to finish.
Step 1 – Get a Free, No-Obligation Quote
You share a few basic details:
Property type (house, flat, unit, etc.)
Size and number of floors
Location
Intended use (sale, let, remortgage, compliance check)
We’ll confirm a clear fixed price and offer you the earliest appointment.
Step 2 – Book Your Survey
We arrange a visit time that suits you. On the day, a qualified EPC assessor will:
Inspect walls, roofs, floors and windows
Check heating systems, boilers and controls
Look at lighting, insulation and hot water systems
Take measurements and photos for the report
Most surveys take 30–90 minutes, depending on the size and complexity of the building.
Step 3 – We Produce Your EPC
Back at the office, we enter all the data into accredited software. This generates your:
Energy rating (A–G)
Estimated energy costs
Recommended improvements
We then lodge your certificate on the official register and email you a digital copy.
Step 4 – We Explain the Results
If you’d like, we’ll walk you through:
What your rating means
Which recommendations are worth doing first
How upgrades could affect future ratings
You don’t just get a piece of paper — you get a clear plan.

Questions & Answers
A Home Energy Audit is a professional assessment that examines how efficiently your property uses energy. An expert evaluates insulation, heating systems, windows, ventilation, and appliances to identify areas where energy is being wasted. The audit provides practical recommendations that help improve energy efficiency, reduce energy consumption, and lower monthly utility bills. It also helps homeowners understand which upgrades can improve comfort and long-term property value.
A Home Energy Audit helps homeowners understand where heat loss and energy waste occur in their property. Many homes lose energy through poor insulation, inefficient heating systems, or outdated windows. By identifying these issues early, homeowners can prioritise improvements that make the property more comfortable and energy efficient. The audit also supports long-term planning for reducing energy costs and improving the overall performance of the home.
During a Home Energy Audit, experts examine several parts of the property that influence energy efficiency. This includes insulation in walls, floors, and roofs, heating systems, windows and doors, ventilation, and lighting. The assessor also looks for draughts, heat loss areas, and inefficient appliances. By reviewing these factors, the audit provides a complete overview of the property’s energy performance and highlights improvements that can reduce energy waste.
A Home Energy Audit identifies where your home is losing heat or using unnecessary energy. For example, poor insulation or inefficient heating systems can cause higher energy consumption. Once these issues are identified, homeowners receive recommendations such as improving insulation, sealing draughts, upgrading heating systems, or installing energy-efficient lighting. These changes help reduce energy use and lower monthly heating and electricity bills over time.
A Home Energy Audit usually takes around 30 minutes to one hour, depending on the size and condition of the property. During this time, the assessor checks insulation, heating systems, windows, ventilation, and other energy-related factors. After the inspection, the findings are reviewed to provide recommendations that help homeowners improve energy efficiency and comfort in their property.
Yes, a Home Energy Audit can help improve your EPC rating by identifying the changes that will have the greatest impact on your property’s energy efficiency. Recommendations such as improving insulation, upgrading heating systems, or installing energy-efficient windows can increase your EPC score. A higher EPC rating often improves property value, reduces energy bills, and makes the property more attractive to buyers or tenants.
