EPC data for Sevenoaks

Figures below are for the Sevenoaks local authority area, from the Energy Performance of Buildings Register to 2026 Q2.

1,838EPCs reach their 10-year expiry in the next 12 months
Band CThe most common rating, on 41% of certificates
55%Rated D or below, against 46% nationally
£1,225Average 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.

Radon in Sevenoaks

Sevenoaks sits in a radon Affected Area. The UKHSA and British Geological Survey put the 1km square covering the town centre in a band where between 1 and 3 in 100 homes are estimated to be at or above the radon action level of 200 becquerels per cubic metre. Radon is not measured during an EPC survey and does not affect the rating, but if you are buying, selling or improving a home here it is worth a test kit, and worth knowing before you seal a property up: draught-proofing and insulation work can raise indoor radon if ventilation is reduced. The atlas is indicative and works to a 1km grid, so it describes the area rather than any one property.

What an EPC costs in Sevenoaks

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.
