The government has minimum energy efficiency standards (MEES) for buildings, which are becoming ever more stringent.
One of the most significant points in the latest proposed legislation is that it covers all buildings, not just rental properties.
Domestic premises – It states that where practical, cost-effective and affordable, all domestic properties must achieve an EPC band C by 2033.
Privately rented properties – It states that where practical, cost-effective and affordable, all privately rented properties must achieve an EPC band C by 2028.
Rented non-domestic buildings – It states that where practical, cost-effective and affordable, all privately rented properties must achieve an EPC band B by 2030.
The legislation covers other categories of housing and stakeholder like new builds, mortgage lenders and social housing. Contact us if you want further information.

We have a proven eight stage process which includes surveying, identifying quick fixes, modelling all viable improvement measures, recommendations, theoretical surveying based upon implementation, and final post-implementation energy performance certificate lodging.
Different types of property will require EPCs at different stages but, generally speaking, when a transaction is going to occur, such as selling, or a new rental, an EPC will be required. A new EPC certificate may also be needed when major improvements are instigated to demonstrate compliance with building regulations.
EPC certificates in Bristol (like the rest of the UK) last for ten years unless certain material changes are made to the property or it is put up for sale or rent.
