EPC Herts

EPC Herts provides Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) for residential properties across specific regions of the United Kingdom. The company's core service involves issuing EPC certificates required for both the sale and rental of homes. An EPC is a legal requirement when selling, renting, or building a property in the UK, providing an energy efficiency rating from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient). These certificates offer insights into a property's energy use, typical energy costs, and include recommendations for improving energy efficiency.

Landlords, in particular, require a valid EPC to comply with government regulations, as properties rented since April 2018 must achieve an EPC rating of 'E' or higher, unless an exemption is registered. The services at EPC Herts are delivered by Chris Phelps, a fully qualified domestic EPC assessor and retrofit assessor, accredited with Elmhurst Energy. The company is committed to providing same-day EPC certificates for sale and rental properties, aiming to offer a prompt service to its clients. This efficiency supports property owners and agents in meeting their legal obligations without delay.

EPC Herts extends its services across a defined geographical area, primarily covering Herts, Essex, and North London. Within these regions, the company serves numerous towns and localities, including Enfield, Cuffley, Goffs Oak, Cheshunt, Hoddesdon, Broxbourne, Ware, Hertford, Harlow, Bishop's Stortford, and Epping. Specific postcode areas such as CM17-CM20 for Harlow, CM16 for Epping, EN8 for Waltham Cross, and SG13-SG14 for Hertford are also regularly covered. The company's operational base is located in Cheshunt, Waltham Cross, EN8 9HL, United Kingdom.

To conduct a standard residential EPC, an assessor from EPC Herts must attend the property in question, as assessments cannot be done remotely. The assessor requires access to all rooms and the loft if possible, though clients are not expected to lift floorboards or carpets. The assessment is designed to be brief and non-intrusive, typically completed in under 30 minutes. For any energy efficiency measures not visible during the inspection, such as insulation or double glazing installation dates, clients are required to provide evidence for these to be included in the assessment.

While EPC Herts primarily focuses on providing Energy Performance Certificates for general residential sale and rental properties, its services are applicable to any dwelling that requires an EPC for legal compliance. This includes various types of residential accommodation, which may encompass student housing or other multi-occupancy residential buildings, provided they fall under the scope of domestic EPC requirements. The company brings a wealth of knowledge to the energy management sector, with its team staying updated with the latest regulations and best practices to ensure clients receive accurate and compliant EPCs. uk.
