EPC Tamworth

Need an EPC in Tamworth? Contact a local accredited energy assessor directly to check availability, confirm the price and book an appointment.

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 Tamworth 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.

Inside the EPC assessment

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
  • lighting
  • any renewable technologies such as solar panels
  • energy efficiency upgrades and paperwork

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.

How quickly can I book an EPC in Tamworth?

Most EPC requests in Tamworth 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.

EPCs for Tamworth landlords

If you let property in Tamworth, 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 Tamworth 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 Tamworth

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

1,175EPCs reach their 10-year expiry in the next 12 months
Band CThe most common rating, on 54% of certificates
43%Rated D or below, against 46% nationally
£908Average 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 Tamworth rates

Share of the 7,223 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

73% of the certificates lodged here are for houses. The average floor area is 79.7m², roughly 6m² smaller than the England and Wales average. Estimated heating costs average £908 a year, £31 a year below the national figure. 31% of certificates were lodged for rented homes.

Radon in Tamworth

Tamworth 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 Tamworth centre show 5 conservation areas. 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 Tamworth

An EPC around here generally costs between £60 and £155, 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.

What to expect when a Domestic Energy Assessor comes to your property

Every Domestic Energy Assessor / DEA will have their own order and format of carrying out the EPC depending on the software that they use and their personal preference to efficiency.
