EPC data for Chichester

Figures below are for the Chichester local authority area, from the Energy Performance of Buildings Register to 2026 Q2.

2,278EPCs reach their 10-year expiry in the next 12 months
Band CThe most common rating, on 42% of certificates
53%Rated D or below, against 46% nationally
£1,123Average estimated heating cost a year

That expiry count is certificates lodged ten years ago and now coming up for renewal. Some of those homes have already been re-certified since, which authority-level data cannot show, so treat it as the ceiling rather than a to-do list.

How Chichester rates

Share of the 15,911 certificates lodged in the five years to 2026 Q2. This is the certificates lodged, not a survey of every home in the area.

What gets assessed around here

63% of the certificates lodged here are for houses. The average floor area is 104.3m², roughly 19m² larger than the England and Wales average. Estimated heating costs average £1,123 a year, £184 a year above the national figure. 27% of certificates were lodged for rented homes.

Radon in Chichester

Chichester sits in a radon Affected Area. The UKHSA and British Geological Survey put the 1km square covering the town centre in a band where between 3 and 5 in 100 homes are estimated to be at or above the radon action level of 200 becquerels per cubic metre. Radon is not measured during an EPC survey and does not affect the rating, but if you are buying, selling or improving a home here it is worth a test kit, and worth knowing before you seal a property up: draught-proofing and insulation work can raise indoor radon if ventilation is reduced. The atlas is indicative and works to a 1km grid, so it describes the area rather than any one property.

Listed buildings and conservation areas

Planning records published for the area within a mile of Chichester centre show 2 conservation areas. That matters for an EPC in two ways. A listed building is normally exempt from needing one where meeting the minimum energy requirements would unacceptably alter its character or appearance, though the exemption is not automatic and the decision rests with the owner on advice. And in conservation areas and article 4 areas the improvements an EPC recommends, replacement glazing or external wall insulation in particular, often need consent before they can be carried out. Your assessor will record what is actually there; the consent question is one for the council.

What an EPC costs in Chichester

An EPC around here generally costs between £70 and £170, though it depends on the property: floor area, whether there are rooms in the roof, extensions, and how far the assessor travels all move the price. We are not a panel and we do not set anybody's fees, so the figure you are quoted comes from the assessor doing the work. Contact one above for a price on your property.
