ENERGY PERFORMANCE CERTIFICATES
An Energy Performance Certificate details the energy efficiency and environmental impact of your property.

Our inspector will conduct a survey of your property to assess it’s energy efficiency and will produce an Energy Performance certificate which gives an easy to understand rating of the energy use of your property. It will also give recommendations for improvement along with an idea of how much money could be saved.

Grades are given on a scale of A to G.

• A - very efficient and low impact on the environment
• Most new properties are Grades B/C
• Grade D/E is the UK average
• G – very inefficient and high impact to the environment
