Legally compliant EPC assessments for rental and residential properties.
Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) provide essential information about a property’s energy efficiency and environmental impact. This information helps landlords, homeowners, and tenants understand how energy is used within a property and identify opportunities to improve efficiency.
A higher EPC rating can make a property more attractive to prospective tenants or buyers, support compliance with legal requirements, and contribute to reduced energy costs and lower carbon emissions.
What is an EPC?
An EPC (Energy Performance Certificate) is an official document that assesses the energy efficiency of a property. It provides a rating from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient) and includes recommendations for improving the property’s energy performance.
In the UK, EPCs are a legal requirement when a property is sold or rented and must be carried out by an accredited assessor. The certificate remains valid for ten years unless a new assessment is required.
We have created a list of 6 key reasons why an EPC is important:
- Informed Energy Use: EPCs help homeowners and tenants understand how energy is used within a property and identify opportunities to reduce energy costs.
- Standardised Property Comparison: EPCs provide a consistent and standardised way to compare the energy efficiency of different properties.
- Identify Energy Improvements: The recommendations included within an EPC highlight improvements that can be made to increase energy efficiency.
- Environmental Impact: Improving a property’s EPC rating can help reduce carbon emissions and support national and international environmental targets.
- Legal Requirement: An EPC is required by law for most properties being sold or rented in England and Wales.
- Improved Marketability: A valid EPC can help make a property more attractive to tenants or buyers and support compliance with minimum energy efficiency standards.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a property inventory and why is it important?
A property inventory is a detailed, impartial record of a property’s condition, contents and cleanliness at a specific point in time.
It plays a vital role in protecting both landlords and tenants by providing clear evidence in the event of disputes, particularly around deposit deductions.
Do you test smoke alarms and carbon monoxide (CO) alarms for compliance?
Yes. During our inspections, we visually check and test accessible smoke and carbon monoxide alarms where applicable.
Their presence, condition and test results are recorded in the report to help landlords demonstrate compliance with current safety regulations.
How quickly will I receive my report?
We understand that timing is crucial. We offer fast turnaround times, with most inventory reports completed within 24-72 hours of inspection. For urgent bookings, same-day or next-day appointments may be available depending on location and access.
