If you’re selling, renting, or building a property in the UK, you’ve likely heard of an EPC, or Energy Performance Certificate. But what exactly is it—and why is it essential for your home or business?
At EPCrate.co.uk, we are experienced EPC assessors providing fast, affordable, and fully compliant EPC certificates across London. Here’s everything you need to know.
🧾 What Is an EPC?
An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is a legal document that shows how energy-efficient a property is. It gives your property an energy rating from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient) and includes:
Estimated energy costs
Carbon dioxide emissions
Recommendations for improvement
Potential savings with upgrades
The EPC is valid for 10 years and is a legal requirement in most property transactions.
🏠 Why Do You Need an EPC?
✔️ Legal Requirement
By law, all properties being sold, rented, or newly built must have a valid EPC in place. Without one, you could face fines of up to £5,000.
💷 Helps Buyers & Tenants
It gives potential buyers or tenants clear insight into the energy efficiency of the property, helping them make informed decisions.
🌿 Promotes Energy Efficiency
EPCs encourage homeowners and landlords to reduce energy consumption, cut utility bills, and lower carbon emissions—benefitting both your wallet and the environment.
📈 Adds Value to Your Property
A better EPC rating can make your property more attractive on the market and potentially increase its value.
