Types of Flats We Assess
High-Rise Apartment Towers (E14)
Canary Wharf and the Isle of Dogs contain some of London’s tallest residential buildings. Developments such as those along the South Quay waterfront, around Wood Wharf and throughout Canary Wharf itself include hundreds of individual flats. Floor level, orientation and building construction all influence the assessment for each individual unit.
Royal Docks Waterside Apartments (E16)
E16 has seen substantial residential development in recent years with large waterside schemes in the Royal Docks, Custom House and Canning Town areas. Many of these are newer builds with modern construction standards, though each flat is individually assessed.
East Village & Olympic Park Apartments (E20)
E20 includes the former Athletes’ Village, now known as East Village, alongside newer residential developments around the Olympic Park and Stratford City. These purpose-built flats typically feature modern construction and energy systems, though an individual assessment is required for each property.
Older Docklands Conversions
Parts of E14 and E16 contain older warehouse and docklands conversions dating from the 1980s and 1990s. These properties can have different construction characteristics from newer developments. EPCRATE assessors are experienced with these property types.
Do Canary Wharf Flats Need an EPC?
Yes. A valid EPC is required when any flat in E14, E16 or E20 is marketed for sale or rent. This applies to leasehold apartments, new-build flats and buy-to-let properties throughout the Canary Wharf and Docklands area.
If a valid EPC already exists and is within its 10-year validity period, a new assessment may not be required immediately.
EPC for Canary Wharf Buy-to-Let Landlords
E14, E16 and E20 are among London’s most popular buy-to-let markets. Many landlords own multiple flats across these postcodes, particularly in larger residential tower developments.
Under Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES), all rented residential properties must hold a valid EPC rated E or above. EPCRATE provides free MEES compliance advice with every domestic EPC, and offers bulk EPC discounts for landlords managing multiple properties.
EPC and Floor Plan Packages
Many Canary Wharf landlords and estate agents choose to combine an EPC with a professional floor plan when marketing or re-letting apartments. Our EPC + Floor Plan bundle starts from £118 for a 2-bedroom flat — saving £20 versus booking separately and reducing the need for multiple appointments.

EPC for flats in Canary Wharf: what we see on site
Canary Wharf is purpose-built high-rise living — modern towers, almost all served by communal or district heating, with double or triple glazing and good fabric insulation. These flats commonly rate B or C, and the EPC reflects the efficiency of the shared heating system as much as the individual flat, so having the correct details for that system matters to the result. Where a rating comes in lower than expected, it’s usually about the evidence available rather than the flat itself. As a leaseholder you can’t alter the building fabric, so practical recommendations stay internal — heating controls and low-energy lighting. Results are indicative only. If you’re letting, a flat below band E generally can’t be let under MEES. See our EPC for flats guidance or book an EPC.
