For new developments, ensuring energy efficiency and regulatory compliance from the outset is crucial. Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) surveys play a key role in assessing new properties, guiding construction practices, and securing legal approval. At Urgent EPC, we provide certified EPC surveys tailored for new builds, helping developers achieve optimal energy performance from day one.
1. Why EPC Surveys Are Essential for New Developments
Regulatory Compliance: EPCs are mandatory for all new builds before they can be sold or rented.
Early Identification of Inefficiencies: Assessors can highlight areas needing improvement during construction.
Energy Planning: Helps design properties with optimal heating, insulation, and renewable energy integration.
2. What an EPC Survey Covers in New Builds
Certified assessors evaluate:
Building design and materials
Heating, ventilation, and hot water systems
Insulation in walls, floors, and roofs
Windows, glazing, and lighting efficiency
Overall energy rating (A–G) with improvement recommendations
Our residential EPC services ensure that new properties meet all energy and legal standards.
