If you’re buying, renting, or selling a property in London, an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is legally required. But what exactly does an EPC check assess?
At Urgent EPC, we specialise in fast, accurate EPC assessments for homes and businesses. Whether you’re a landlord, estate agent, or homeowner, our residential EPC services and same-day EPCs ensure compliance and peace of mind.
Key Components of an EPC Check
An EPC inspection examines several aspects of your property’s energy performance:
✅ Building Fabric
The assessor checks the construction materials, insulation levels (walls, roof, floors), and how well your home retains heat.
✅ Heating Systems
The type, age, and efficiency of your heating system — including boilers, radiators, and underfloor heating — are all evaluated.
✅ Hot Water System
Your water heating system’s performance and efficiency are assessed, along with insulation on tanks and pipes.
✅ Windows and Glazing
Single, double, or triple glazing affects heat retention and contributes to your energy score.
✅ Lighting
The number and type of lights (traditional vs. energy-saving LED) are considered in the final calculation.
✅ Renewable Technologies
If you have solar panels, heat pumps, or wind turbines, they’re factored into the rating and may significantly boost your EPC grade.
Why It Matters
EPCs provide a rating from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient), helping you:
Understand your property’s energy usage
Identify ways to improve efficiency
Comply with UK legal requirements when selling or renting
