EPC Teddington

Looking for an EPC in Teddington? Get in touch with a local accredited energy assessor to check when they are free, confirm the cost and arrange a visit.

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.

Homes in Teddington range from older terraced and period properties through to more recent developments, so EPCs are needed for a wide mix of house types — terraces, semi-detached and detached houses, converted flats and newer builds.

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
  • 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 Teddington?

Many people looking for an EPC in Teddington already have a sale, letting or listing under way. An estate agent may have asked for the certificate before marketing begins, or a landlord may need one before advertising a rental. Booking early helps avoid delays and gives the assessor more flexibility with older or larger properties.

EPCs for Teddington landlords

Rental homes in Teddington need a valid EPC before they are marketed, and the certificate is the starting point for meeting the landlord MEES requirements. Beyond compliance, it flags the improvements most likely to raise the property's efficiency.

EPCs for homeowners selling a property

When selling a property in Teddington, an EPC is generally required before it goes on the market. Booking it ahead of time avoids last-minute delays, and the recommendations may point to low-cost ways to improve the rating.

EPC data for Teddington

Figures below are for Richmond upon Thames, the local authority covering Teddington, from the Energy Performance of Buildings Register to 2026 Q2.

2,869EPCs reach their 10-year expiry in the next 12 months
Band CThe most common rating, on 46% of certificates
50%Rated D or below, against 46% nationally
£930Average 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 Richmond upon Thames rates

Share of the 23,095 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

51% of the certificates lodged here are for flats and maisonettes, where houses lead nationally. The average floor area is 95.1m², roughly 10m² larger than the England and Wales average. Estimated heating costs average £930 a year, in line with the national figure. 36% of certificates were lodged for rented homes.

Radon in Teddington

Teddington 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 Teddington centre show 29 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 Teddington

An EPC around here generally costs between £80 and £185, 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.
