An Energy Performance Certificate summarises how energy efficient a home is, scoring it from A down to G. In most cases a valid EPC must be in place before a property is marketed to buyers or tenants.
Like most parts of the country, Shotton 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.
What the assessor looks at
The assessment is a straightforward survey in which the assessor records the property's key characteristics, including:
- the size and layout of the home
- property age and construction type
- the heating system and its controls
- insulation
- windows and glazing
- any renewable technologies such as solar panels
- lighting
- any energy efficiency upgrades you have evidence of
This information feeds into the final rating and a list of recommended improvements. Period or non-standard homes can take slightly longer to assess, so let the assessor know about any quirks in advance.
Booking an EPC in Shotton
Most EPC requests in Shotton come with a deadline — a property going on the market, a tenancy starting or an agent requesting the certificate before listing. Arranging the assessment early keeps things moving and makes scheduling easier, particularly for larger or more complex homes.
