An EPC is an important document that provides information about the energy performance of a property. As a homeowner or landlord in Newark on Trent, you may need an EPC for various reasons, such as renting out your property or selling your home. An EPC can help you save money on your energy bills by providing recommendations on how to improve the energy efficiency of your home. To get an EPC for your property, you can contact me via my profile and I will visit your home and generate a report based on their findings.

What is an EPC?

An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) gives information about how energy efficient a property is, as well as the environmental impact of the building. The certificate shows how much energy is used per square meter of floor area and provides an estimated annual cost of running the property based on current energy prices. The certificate will also give you recommendations on how to reduce your energy costs, such as installing new insulation, double-glazing, or updating your boiler.

Government Regulations for Homeowners and Landlords

The government requires all homeowners and landlords in Newark on Trent to have an EPC before they can rent out a property or sell it. This regulation was put into place to help reduce carbon emissions from residential buildings and encourage homeowners and landlords to make their properties more energy efficient. For homeowners selling their homes, an EPC must be provided with any marketing materials or advertisements for the property. For landlords renting out a property, an EPC must be made available prior to signing any tenancy agreements.

Benefits of Having an EPC

Having an up-to-date EPC can provide several benefits beyond meeting government regulations: it can help you save money on your bills, increase the value of your home or rental property when selling/renting out, and improve the comfort level of your home with better insulation and airflow control systems. Additionally, having an accurate assessment done by qualified professionals will help ensure that you don’t run into any legal problems down the road if there are issues with your property that you weren’t aware of before purchasing it or renting it out. Plus, having this information on hand can help potential buyers make informed decisions about whether or not they want to purchase/rent your home/property in Newark on Trent.

EPC data for Newark on Trent

Figures below are for Newark and Sherwood, the local authority covering Newark on Trent, from the Energy Performance of Buildings Register to 2026 Q2.

1,859EPCs reach their 10-year expiry in the next 12 months
Band CThe most common rating, on 45% of certificates
51%Rated D or below, against 46% nationally
£1,118Average 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 Newark and Sherwood rates

Share of the 15,805 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

66% of the certificates lodged here are for houses. The average floor area is 91.2m², roughly 6m² larger than the England and Wales average. Estimated heating costs average £1,118 a year, £179 a year above the national figure. 28% of certificates were lodged for rented homes.

Radon in Newark on Trent

Newark on Trent 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 Newark on Trent centre show 1 conservation area. 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 Newark on Trent

An EPC around here generally costs between £60 and £155, 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.
