All domestic and commercial buildings in the UK available to buy or rent must have an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC). If you own a home, getting an energy performance survey done could help you identify ways to save money on your energy bills and improve the comfort of your home.

At Claywood Energy we are committed to providing high quality Energy Performance Certificates (EPC) offering a professional, prompt and courteous service at a competitive price.

What is an EPC?

The EPC shows a record of the energy efficiency levels and CO2 emissions of a building, by using a standard table from A to G (A being very efficient, G being very inefficient).

Firstly, the energy survey is performed by a qualified energy assessor who visits the property, examines key items within the premises such as loft insulation, domestic boiler, hot water tank, radiators, windows for double glazing, etc. This information is then used to calculate the property’s level of energy efficiency and Co2 emissions together with a recommendation report on the ways to improve efficiency and emissions, ensuring future savings on fuel costs.

EPC’s are valid for 10 Years - however most government funding requires them to be no older than 18 months. The funding criteria for energy efficiency improvements is constantly changing at present and Claywood Energy continues to monitor all up-dates.

Who requires an EPC?

As of the 21st May 2010, if you decide to place your property on the market for sale or rent in England and Wales you will need to purchase an EPC.

Can I market or rent the property before I receive the EPC?

As long as you have already ordered and paid for an EPC then you are permitted to put your property on the market or advertise it for renting purposes.
