You need an EPC in Manchester when you are selling or renting your house. To get an EPC for your home a qualified Domestic Energy Assessor needs to complete a short on site visit of your home. This is us! With the data collected onsite, we can work out your EPC rating and upload the results to the EPC Register.

What is an EPC

An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is a legal document. It shows how energy efficient the home is. The EPC uses a banding scale from A to G, with an A rated property being the most efficient. The format may be familiar, it uses a similar layout to the energy efficiency labels on home appliances.

It's a legal requirement to get an EPC whenever a house is built, sold or rented. Many of the government backed energy efficiency grants need an EPC to access funding too. Recently, we're starting to see a trend of lenders requesting EPCs as part of remortgaging too.

Every EPC lasts for 10 years. You may already have one. Take a look at the central EPC register to double check yours. Remember, it's only a legal requirement to have a valid EPC when selling or renting a property.

The only way to get a Domestic EPC is by contracting a Domestic Energy Assessor (DEA) who is both qualified and accredited. This is us! We're City & Guilds qualified with our accreditation from Elmhurst Energy.

Many estate agents offer EPCs to their customers, but not many of them handle them directly. The majority of EPCs sold by estate agents are subcontracted out to DEAs like ourselves. Commissions are added and the customer gets no more for their money. The best way to get an EPC is to go direct to a Domestic Energy Assessor - Book Now. You will get a fully compliant EPC at a cheaper price than if you were going through an estate agent.
