EPC Street

Booking an EPC in Street is straightforward — speak to a local accredited energy assessor to check their availability, agree a price and arrange the assessment.

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.

Property in Street spans older period homes, mid-century housing and newer estates. An EPC may be needed for any of them, whether it is a terrace, a semi-detached or detached house, a converted flat or a modern build.

How an EPC assessment works

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
  • 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 Street

If you are selling or letting in Street, 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 Street landlords

If you let property in Street, a valid EPC is required before the home is advertised, and it helps you check the property against the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards. The recommendations can also point to practical upgrades — insulation, glazing or heating controls — that improve the rating.

EPCs for homeowners selling a property

Homeowners selling in Street 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.

Radon in Street

Street 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 10 and 30 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.

Listed buildings and conservation areas

Planning records published for the area within a mile of Street 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 Street

An EPC around here generally costs between £65 and £160, 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.
