An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) shows how energy efficient a property is and gives it a rating from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient). You will usually need a valid EPC before a home is marketed for sale or rent.
The housing in and around Oxshott 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.
How an EPC assessment works
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
- windows and glazing
- lighting
- any renewable technologies such as solar panels
- 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.
How quickly can I book an EPC in Oxshott?
If you are selling or letting in Oxshott, it is worth arranging the EPC as early as possible. Estate agents often ask for it before a property is advertised, and booking ahead reduces the risk of the certificate holding up a sale or tenancy.
