Good ratings are more attractive to potential tenants and buyers as they are cheaper to run.
What is an EPC?
An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is a document which grades a property’s energy efficiency from A to G. They help homeowners to be more proactive with their energy efficiency measures to help save our planet from harmful carbon emissions.
An EPC contains information about energy costs and efficiency as well as recommendations on how to save energy and money.
Who needs an EPC?
If you are building, renting or selling a property, an EPC is a legal requirement (and has been for over 10 years). Whether yours is a lofty Victorian property or a compact new-build apartment, make sure it has an EPC.
How do I get an EPC?
That’s where London Energy Services comes in. After one quick call, one of our friendly and experienced EPC assessors will arrange to visit your property to carry out a thorough inspection and grade your property from A (‘most efficient’ or in the super league of energy efficiency) to G (least efficient – would benefit from some energy efficiency measures).
The certificate is valid for 10 years and you can enjoy peace of mind that comes with ticking that niggling job off your list.
Our EPCs are competitively priced and start from just £40 dependent on the size of your property.
New Legislation June 2025 RDSAP 10
New EPC Rating Process: Introducing RDSAP 10 from June 15th
Starting June 15th, the government will implement an updated version of the Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) process, known as RDSAP 10. This advanced software introduces a more comprehensive and detailed survey methodology, resulting in more accurate and reliable EPCs.
Key Changes
– Enhanced Data Collection: Energy assessors will now gather more specific information, including the dimensions and types of all glazing, heating systems, and their efficiencies—supported by evidence such as model numbers, manufacturer data, or smart heating controls.
– Evidence-Driven Assessment: Home improvements like insulation upgrades or new windows will only be reflected if verifiable evidence is provided. The EPC process now relies much more heavily on documentary proof supplied by homeowners, landlords, and agents.
What This Means for You
These significant changes are designed to produce a more precise evaluation of your property’s energy performance. EPC ratings will now depend more on factual data rather than assumptions, which may influence the final score. If documentation isn’t available, the system’s assessment might result in a lower EPC rating.
Why the Update Matters
This new process marks the most substantial revision in over a decade, ensuring EPCs are based on verified and accurate information. Ultimately, you’ll receive an EPC that truly reflects your property’s current energy efficiency, helping you make better-informed decisions.
