The Importance of a Commercial EPC in Wigan

A legal requirement for property transactions in Wigan, the Commercial EPC is an assessment of your building's energy efficiency. Your property will be rated on a scale between Band A (most efficient) and Band G (least efficient). Beyond regulations, the certificate can help you reduce running costs, become more sustainable and increase the value of your commercial property.

To calculate the Band, your Commercial EPC Assessor will look for insulation throughout the fabric of your building—the walls, floors and roofs—as well as its inspecting its services—the heating, hot water and lighting. The Commercial EPC Assessment takes around an hour to complete. Using SBEM to generate the reports, your assessor can calculate the final score with the information collected at the site visit.

If you are looking to improve the Commercial EPC Score of your property in Wigan, your assessor can model multiple scenarios with different upgrades helping direct budget towards the most impactful upgrades.

In the complete article we cover:

  • The assessment process and what affects your rating
  • How to interpret your EPC certificate and recommendations report
  • Practical guidance on making improvements, starting with the building fabric
  • Real examples from different property types across Wigan, from Victorian buildings in Market Place to modern units in Martland Park

Landlord Guide to Commercial EPCs: Regulations

Commercial property landlords in Wigan must comply with EPC regulations when leasing their buildings. The Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES) regulations make it illegal to let properties that fall below a Band E on the EPC—under the current restrictions. Serious breaches can attract up to £150,000 in fines. You must make a valid Commercial EPC available to prospective tenants, before marketing a property.

There are plans to raise these minimum standards to Band C by 2028, and Band B is proposed for the early 2030s.

This impacts Wigan's broad commercial property market differently - from Victorian buildings in the town centre struggling with solid walls and poor insulation, to more efficient modern units at Martland Park. If you need to upgrade your building to meet these MEES, your Commercial EPC Assessor can model different improvement scenarios to help meet the standards using the most cost effective route.

Any upgrades should start with a fabric first aprroach, focusing on insulation first then moving on to heating, hot water and lighting improvements. Support is available through Wigan Council and the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, including grants for low carbon technology.
