EPC in Crawley – Local Energy Performance Certificate

If you’re selling or renting a property in Crawley, you’ll need a valid EPC before marketing can begin. EPC Near Me connects homeowners and landlords in Crawley with accredited local energy assessors who provide fast appointments, clear pricing and prompt certificate lodgement.

From flats near Crawley town centre and Three Bridges to family homes in Pound Hill, Tilgate and Broadfield, a local assessor can carry out your EPC efficiently and professionally.


Why Choose a Local EPC Assessor in Crawley?

Choosing a Crawley-based assessor means:

• Faster appointment availability
• Knowledge of local housing types and estates
• Accurate assessments for older and modern properties
• Straightforward booking and competitive pricing

Crawley features a mix of post-war housing, established residential neighbourhoods and modern developments close to Gatwick Airport. A local assessor understands how these construction styles and heating systems influence EPC ratings.


EPC for Selling a Property in Crawley

An EPC is legally required before a property can be marketed for sale.

During the assessment, the assessor will:

• Measure the property
• Record insulation levels
• Assess windows and glazing
• Inspect heating and hot water systems
• Evaluate lighting efficiency

The certificate is then lodged on the official EPC Register and remains valid for 10 years.


EPC for Landlords in Crawley

Landlords must ensure rental properties meet minimum energy efficiency standards. Most rental properties must currently achieve at least an E rating under existing regulations.

If your property falls below this rating, the EPC will outline recommended improvements that may help increase efficiency and maintain compliance.

Crawley has a strong rental market due to its transport links, proximity to Gatwick and commuter access to London. Rental properties range from apartments near Three Bridges to larger family homes across Furnace Green and Maidenbower.


How Much Does an EPC Cost in Crawley?

EPC prices depend on the size and type of property. Your local Crawley assessor will confirm the cost before booking.

Appointments are often available within a few days, with certificates lodged promptly after the survey.

EPC data for Crawley

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

1,532EPCs reach their 10-year expiry in the next 12 months
Band CThe most common rating, on 62% of certificates
32%Rated D or below, against 46% nationally
£706Average 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 Crawley rates

Share of the 10,857 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 78.2m², roughly 7m² smaller than the England and Wales average. Estimated heating costs average £706 a year, £233 a year below the national figure. 36% of certificates were lodged for rented homes.

Radon in Crawley

Crawley sits in the lowest radon band. The UKHSA and British Geological Survey estimate that less than 1 in 100 homes in the 1km square covering the town centre reach the radon action level of 200 becquerels per cubic metre. Radon is not part of an EPC survey and does not affect the rating. At this level it is not usually a concern, though individual homes can still vary. 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 Crawley centre show 10 conservation areas and 11 article 4 direction 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 Crawley

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.

What to expect when a Domestic Energy Assessor comes to your property

Every Domestic Energy Assessor / DEA will have their own order and format of carrying out the EPC depending on the software that they use and their personal preference to efficiency.
