Do I Need An EPC?
PRS (MEES) Regulations

Minimum EPC rating
of 'E' or better before any lease can be created...

...OR  registered Exemptions put in place which demonstrate that implementing a particular EPC Recommendation would not achieve savings over a period of up to 7 years that at least equal the gross cost of implementing that Recommendation.

How to achieve MEES compliance....
We'll help you to understand your EPC Recommendations and how to minimise the capital outlay needed to achieve compliance.

About Us

Grounded on military service and a career that has bridged sales, operations and general management, we're committed to providing a service of the highest quality, that is transparent throughout and which gives you the confidence needed when making key decisions around your investment in property.


Over 14 years experience delivering EPC's on existing Commercial and Domestic property throughout our region, allied to active membership of MEP, one of energy assessments leading professional groups, has prepared us for most situations and we're happy to share that experience and knowledge base with you to help you to navigate the EPC minefield. 


Against the backdrop of a climate emergency, we strive to ensure that we maintain the knowledge and awareness needed to inform your own decision making regarding the capital costs of keeping your property relevant to the market, particularly where you might have an obligation as a landlord to meet Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES), or when better informed buyers (and risk averse mortgage lenders or pension trustees) will increasingly seek to avoid poor quality properties with low energy ratings.

Choose an Assessor who can help you answer the question "Do I Need An EPC?"

To work as an Energy Assessor we're required to undergo training; pass exams and submit portfolios of practical work to qualify and then commit to continuous professional development (CPD) that keeps us on top of an evolving methodology; aware of the latest building technologies (construction, heating, cooling and lighting) and abreast of the legal, technical, social and political environment in which we are required to work. We also have our work audited by our Accreditation Schemes, through which we lodge your reports, and can have our accreditation suspended if errors are prevalent. Add to that the need to stay up to date with business best practice and you might realise that being a competent Energy Assessor is not simply about nosing around peoples homes and workplaces!

We believe that an Energy Assessor should be willing to share their understanding and experience with you, helping you to identify risks and work through the challenges. Time spent talking with your Energy Assessor can literally save you thousands, securing better value from a property purchase or achieving those extra EPC Rating points that put Minimum Standards to shame! We've prepared an index of subject areas which we feel may help you to better understand aspects of the legal environment and the assessment methodology which can impact on your EPC decision making. Note that if a subject of interest to you has yet to be published we're still here to discuss your concerns and answer questions. Contact details below.

So, back to the question, do you need an EPC?

To produce your INSTANT QUOTE we ask you to provide answers to a few simple questions. Whilst some assessors will ask only for the floor area of your commercial premises or the number of bedrooms in a domestic property, the size of a building has little to do with the actual work that an Assessor must complete to produce your EPC and basing a quote on that detail alone we feel is unreliable and will lead to inflated pricing to cover other factors that may or may not be applicable to your requirement !


The number of individual spaces within a building and variations in heating, cooling, ventilation and lighting between those spaces will be influential. Rooms-In-Roof, Basements and ground levels add complication as do the number of floors over which a building is constructed as well as building extensions that have been added over time. The methodology for domestic property, though different from commercial assessments, also looks at key features like conservatories, basements & rooms-in-the-roof.


By understanding these additional but basic details about your property, we hope that our quotation will be a better reflection of the work that we need to do to deliver an accurate EPC. This should result in a more competitive price to you as we don't need to 'cover all options' and we'll be able to focus on undertaking a thorough building assessment without feeling we've under priced your job .
