EPC Requirements – What You Need to Know
Understanding the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES)
The government continues to raise the bar when it comes to Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES), and these targets are no longer limited to rental properties.
Proposed EPC Targets by Property Type
Domestic Properties: All homes, not just rentals, must reach EPC Band C by 2033, where practical, cost-effective, and affordable.
Privately Rented Homes: Expected to reach EPC Band C by 2028 under the same practical conditions.
Rented Non-Domestic Buildings: Required to meet EPC Band B by 2030, increasing pressure on commercial landlords to act now.
Other Property Types: The legislation also includes guidance and targets for new builds, social housing, and mortgage lenders. If you’re unsure how this affects your property, we’re happy to advise.
These upcoming deadlines mean it’s no longer just about having an EPC, it’s about improving your rating and planning ahead to meet compliance.
If you own multiple properties, we can offer multi-EPC discounts to make compliance more cost-effective across your portfolio.

EPC in Stroud FAQs
When is an EPC needed?
An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is typically required whenever a property is sold, let, or constructed. You may also need a new EPC if significant building works have been carried out, especially when compliance with Building Regulations must be shown.
How long do EPC certificates last?
EPCs are valid for 10 years throughout the UK, including in Stroud. However, if you've renovated the property or you're about to sell or rent it again, you may need an updated certificate sooner to reflect its current energy performance.
How much time does an EPC assessment take?
For most properties, the on-site assessment takes around 60 minutes. Larger or more complex buildings may take a little longer, but we’ll always keep you informed and work efficiently.
How much does an EPC certificate Bath cost?
We offer EPCs in Stroud starting from just £70, with clear, fixed pricing and no hidden costs. If you need multiple properties assessed, ask us about our multi-EPC discounts.
What does EPC stand for?
EPC stands for Energy Performance Certificate. It shows how energy-efficient a property is using a scale from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient). These ratings help buyers, tenants, and landlords understand the likely energy costs and the minimum standards are tightening, especially for rental properties.
