EPC Tenby

Looking for an EPC in Tenby? 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 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, Tenby 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 happens during the assessment

A qualified assessor visits the property and gathers the information needed to produce the certificate, looking at things like:

  • the size and layout of the home
  • property age and construction type
  • the heating system and its controls
  • insulation
  • lighting
  • windows and glazing
  • any renewable technologies such as solar panels
  • 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 Tenby

Most EPC requests in Tenby 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.

Landlords in Tenby

If you let property in Tenby, 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 when selling in Tenby

If you are selling a house or flat in Tenby, you will usually need an EPC before marketing begins — whatever the property type. Arranging it early is one less thing to deal with once the sale is under way, and the recommendation report can flag quick improvements that may help the rating.

EPC data for Tenby

Figures below are for Pembrokeshire, the local authority covering Tenby, from the Energy Performance of Buildings Register to 2026 Q2.

2,797EPCs reach their 10-year expiry in the next 12 months
Band DThe most common rating, on 37% of certificates
64%Rated D or below, against 46% nationally
£1,221Average 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 Tenby

Tenby 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.

What an EPC costs in Tenby

An EPC around here generally costs between £55 and £150, 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.
