Our EPC Services
ABBE-accredited energy assessments for homeowners, landlords, and property professionals across South London.
Domestic EPC
A Domestic Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rates your property's energy efficiency from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient). Required by law when selling or renting a property in England and Wales, our ABBE-accredited assessors carry out thorough assessments and provide your certificate quickly, usually within 24 hours. The certificate is valid for 10 years and includes personalised recommendations to help reduce your energy bills and carbon footprint.

Common questions
How long does a domestic EPC assessment take?
A typical domestic EPC assessment takes between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on property size and type. Our assessor will inspect your heating systems, insulation, windows, lighting and other energy-related features.
How long is a domestic EPC valid for?
A domestic EPC is valid for 10 years from the date of issue. You can reuse the same certificate for multiple sales or lettings during this period.
Do I legally need an EPC to sell or rent my home?
Yes. An EPC is a legal requirement when marketing a property for sale or rent in England and Wales. Estate agents must display the EPC rating in listings and landlords must provide a copy to tenants.
What happens if my property has a low EPC rating?
A low rating (F or G) does not stop you selling your property, but it may affect mortgage terms. For landlords, the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES) require rental properties to achieve at least an E rating.

How often does an EPC need renewing?
An EPC is valid for 10 years from the date of issue. For rental properties, you must provide a valid EPC to new tenants, but you do not need to renew mid-tenancy unless it expires.
Do you offer discounts for multiple properties?
Yes, we offer discounted portfolio pricing for landlords with two or more properties. Contact us for a tailored quote based on your portfolio size and location.
What if my rental property is rated F or G?
You cannot legally let a property rated F or G without a registered exemption. Our assessment includes a report of cost-effective improvements to help you reach an E rating or above.
Retrofit Assessment
A Retrofit Assessment (PAS 2035) is a comprehensive evaluation of your property's energy performance that identifies the most effective improvement measures. Carried out by our ABBE-accredited Retrofit Assessors, this assessment is a mandatory first step for accessing most government energy efficiency grant schemes, including ECO4 and the Great British Insulation Scheme. The resulting Improvement Measures Report outlines a tailored plan to improve energy performance, reduce bills, and lower carbon emissions.

Common questions
What is a PAS 2035 retrofit assessment?
PAS 2035 is the UK standard for domestic retrofit work. A Retrofit Assessment involves a thorough survey of your property, including fabric, heating systems, and ventilation, to identify and prioritise energy improvement measures.
Is a retrofit assessment required to access government grants?
Yes. Most government energy efficiency grants, including ECO4 and the Great British Insulation Scheme, require a PAS 2035-compliant Retrofit Assessment before any work can begin.
How long does a retrofit assessment take?
A full Retrofit Assessment typically takes 1 to 2 hours on site, depending on property size. The Improvement Measures Report is usually delivered within 5 working days.
What is the difference between an EPC and a retrofit assessment?
An EPC is a standardised energy rating certificate. A Retrofit Assessment is a much more detailed survey used to plan specific improvement measures. An EPC is often a starting point, while a Retrofit Assessment guides the actual energy improvement work.
