EPC New Malden

Looking for an EPC in New Malden? Get in touch with a local accredited energy assessor to check when they are free, confirm the cost and arrange a visit.

An EPC records a property's energy efficiency and assigns a band from A to G, along with recommendations for improvement. One is normally needed before a home can be advertised for sale or rent.

The housing in and around New Malden covers everything from older and period homes to post-war housing and modern estates. That means EPCs are regularly carried out on terraces, semis, detached houses, flats and new-build properties.

What the assessor looks at

During the visit the assessor inspects the property and records details that affect its energy performance, including:

  • the size and layout of the home
  • property age and construction type
  • the heating system and its controls
  • insulation
  • lighting
  • windows and glazing
  • any renewable technologies such as solar panels
  • energy efficiency upgrades and paperwork

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.

Booking an EPC in New Malden

Many people looking for an EPC in New Malden already have a sale, letting or listing under way. An estate agent may have asked for the certificate before marketing begins, or a landlord may need one before advertising a rental. Booking early helps avoid delays and gives the assessor more flexibility with older or larger properties.

EPCs for New Malden landlords

Rental homes in New Malden need a valid EPC before they are marketed, and the certificate is the starting point for meeting the landlord MEES requirements. Beyond compliance, it flags the improvements most likely to raise the property's efficiency.

Selling a home in New Malden

When selling a property in New Malden, an EPC is generally required before it goes on the market. Booking it ahead of time avoids last-minute delays, and the recommendations may point to low-cost ways to improve the rating.

EPC data for New Malden

Figures below are for Kingston upon Thames, the local authority covering New Malden, from the Energy Performance of Buildings Register to 2026 Q2.

2,332EPCs reach their 10-year expiry in the next 12 months
Band CThe most common rating, on 50% of certificates
46%Rated D or below, against 46% nationally
£824Average 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 Kingston upon Thames rates

Share of the 23,173 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

54% of the certificates lodged here are for flats and maisonettes, where houses lead nationally. The average floor area is 82.2m², roughly 3m² smaller than the England and Wales average. Estimated heating costs average £824 a year, £115 a year below the national figure. 29% of certificates were lodged for rented homes.

Radon in New Malden

New Malden 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 New Malden centre show 5 conservation areas, 82 listed buildings and 29 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 New Malden

An EPC around here generally costs between £80 and £185, 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.
