We are not a 'panel' or 'booking service' and our members will never ask you to pay in advance of your EPC survey.
100% of the price you pay for your energy performance certificate is retained by the assessor who provides your EPC service. Your local assessor sets the epc price and unlike other national EPC providers we do not take any commission from the cost of your epc. This ensures that you get the lowest price possible for your energy performance certificate by booking direct with your local epc provider.
An Energy Performance Certificate, commonly refered to as an EPC, is a document which is required when a property is to be sold or rented out. If you are renting out or selling a property you should order your EPC for potential buyers or tenants before you market the property. You cannot legally let or sell a property without a valid Energy Performance Certificate being on the official EPC Register.
An EPC gives a property an energy efficiency rating from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient) and it is currently valid for 10 years. The information on the EPC can help you make your property more energy efficient and allow potential buyers and tenants to compare the energy efficiency of different properties.
Tenants or buyers need to know the energy efficiency of a property before agreeing to a tenancy agreement or purchase. This is more important than ever following the rapid rise in gas and electricity prices. On the 1st April 2022, OFGEM raised the energy price cap by 54% and further price increases are expected.
All residential rental properties must achieve an energy efficiency rating of at least E on their Energy Performance Certificate. If your property has an F or G Rating you may not be allowed to rent it out. Please call us for advice on how to improve the epc rating. We have been Recognised Suppliers to The National Residential Landlords Association.
Choosing a more energy efficient property will help to safeguard tenants by providing warmer, more desirable home with lower running costs. If tenants are spending less on fuel bills, this could help to reduce the possibility of rent arrears. Finding an energy efficient home could also mean that tenants stay for longer, providing more stable rental income for the landlord.
Use the menu at the top to select your property type and region to find The EPC Man for your area. Simply call to discuss the cost and make an appointment for the assessor to carry out the EPC survey which on an average domestic property will take around 30 to 40 minutes.
Your assessor will produce your EPC and email you a link which will take you directly to your certificate on the official EPC register. You will be able to forward the link to your solicitor or agent and you will be able to download or print a copy of the certificate yourself. Your Energy Performance Certificate will be valid for a period of 10 years from the date of issue.
Please remember that you should organise your EPC before you market your property for sale or rental.
