At Energy Performance
Solutions, we try to achieve the best possible rating for your property. We can
provide the standard EPC certificate where you can see the energy efficiency
recommendations, which are automatically set by the software that we energy
assessors use. However, we can also offer a consultancy service where we assess
your property and then provide energy efficiency improvements outside the ones
stated in the EPC certificate. These extra recommendations cost much less to
implement as the aim is to achieve a minimum of C rating, avoiding costly
improvements such as wall insulation or double glazing. Whether it is a full
property refurbishment or just a few adjustments, this service is highly
recommended for who needs a C rating minimum at lower costs. Given the new
regulations that will come into force in 2025, requiring properties to achieve
a minimum of C rating, it is wise to always to consult with a specialist before
making any changes to the property.
What We Do Energy Performance Solutions is a company with
several years of experience in the energy performance sector. Our energy
assessors provide high quality and accurate energy performance certificates. We
focus on residential properties, and have vast experience with a variety of
clients ranging from landlords letting their first property to property
investment companies with large portfolios. We adopt a consultative approach to
the energy performance assessment, by which we can provide the standard EPC
report, but also an energy performance consultancy service that aims to ensure
the most cost-effective way to improve the epc rating.
Who Needs Energy Performance Certificates: Since the
introduction of the EU Directive on performance of buildings in 2007, it is a
legal requirement to have a valid EPC when selling or renting a property. By
law, prospective tenants or buyers must have access to a valid EPC; therefore,
it is important to have a valid EPC before advertising a property. There are
cases however where a property is exempt from the EPC requirements. To find out
about these exemptions, please follow the link:

What is an EPC: The EPC certificate consists of the
assessment of the energy efficiency of the property. The property is attributed
a rating which varies from A to G - the most efficient is A and the least
efficient is G. The survey takes into account the building's age, type of
fabric, thickness of the walls, level of insulation, type of windows, heating
system and its controls. The survey does not take into account your appliances,
such as washing machines, microwaves or any heater that is not fixed.
