Why your property needs an EPC

An EPC is a legal requirement when a home is built, sold or rented. It rates energy efficiency from A to G, and landlords must currently reach at least E to let a property.

It also gives practical recommendations that lower bills and raise value. Whether you are finishing a new build, selling, or keeping a rental portfolio within the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES), you need a valid EPC.

Double glazing

Single-glazed windows are a major source of heat loss. Double glazing cuts heat transfer, makes the home warmer and quieter, and significantly improves your EPC rating, helping landlords meet MEES.

Loft and ceiling insulation

Insulate to a minimum of 270 mm (mineral wool or equivalent) to reach a U-value of 0.16 W/m²K or less. It can prevent up to 25% of heat loss through the roof and is the quickest, most cost-effective improvement.
