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.
Property in Verwood 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.
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
- any renewable technologies such as solar panels
- windows and glazing
- lighting
- any energy efficiency upgrades you have evidence of
The assessor then uses this information to calculate the rating and produce a recommendation report. Older or unusually laid-out homes can take a little longer, so it helps to mention any unusual features when you book.
Booking an EPC in Verwood
Most EPC requests in Verwood 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.
