EPC Romsey

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.

Like most parts of the country, Romsey has a varied housing stock — a mix of older and character homes alongside more modern properties. EPCs are commonly required for terraced, semi-detached and detached houses as well as flats and recent developments.

Inside the EPC assessment

A qualified assessor visits the property and gathers the information needed to produce the certificate, looking at things like:

  • 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
  • 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 Romsey

If you are selling or letting in Romsey, 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.

EPCs for rental properties in Romsey

Landlords need a valid EPC before marketing a rental property in Romsey. The certificate also helps show whether the property meets the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES). In practice the EPC is more than paperwork — it can highlight insulation, glazing or heating improvements worth considering before the property is let.

EPCs when selling in Romsey

Homeowners selling in Romsey normally need a valid EPC in place before the property is advertised. Sorting it out early keeps the sale on track, and the report's suggested improvements can highlight simple changes that may lift the score.

EPC data for Romsey

Figures below are for Test Valley, the local authority covering Romsey, from the Energy Performance of Buildings Register to 2026 Q2.

1,804EPCs reach their 10-year expiry in the next 12 months
Band CThe most common rating, on 51% of certificates
45%Rated D or below, against 46% nationally
£1,026Average 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 Test Valley rates

Share of the 14,464 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

70% of the certificates lodged here are for houses. The average floor area is 100.2m², roughly 15m² larger than the England and Wales average. Estimated heating costs average £1,026 a year, £87 a year above the national figure. 32% of certificates were lodged for rented homes.

Radon in Romsey

Romsey 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 Romsey 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 Romsey

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.
