EPC Hendon
Booking an EPC in Hendon is straightforward — speak to a local accredited energy assessor to check their availability, agree a price and arrange the assessment.
An Energy Performance Certificate rates a property's energy efficiency on a scale from A at the top to G at the bottom. A valid EPC is normally required before a house or flat is put up for sale or let.
Homes in Hendon range from older terraced and period properties through to more recent developments, so EPCs are needed for a wide mix of house types — terraces, semi-detached and detached houses, converted flats and newer builds.
What happens during the assessment
The assessment is a straightforward survey in which the assessor records the property's key characteristics, including:
- the size and layout of the home
- property age and construction type
- the heating system and its controls
- insulation
- any renewable technologies such as solar panels
- lighting
- windows and glazing
- any energy efficiency upgrades you have evidence of
From this the assessor works out the EPC band and prepares a report of recommendations. Larger or converted properties may take a little more time, so it is worth flagging anything unusual when arranging the visit.
