EPCs and MEES advice for landlords, owners and occupiers
An EPC rates a building from A to G and is needed to sell or let it. For landlords, the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards make the rating a legal requirement for letting, so knowing what it would take to improve it matters.
- Domestic and commercial EPCs
- Display Energy Certificates
- MEES advice and improvement plans
- Accredited, lodged assessors
MEES in brief
Commercial properties generally can't be let with an EPC below E unless a valid exemption is registered, and the government has proposed raising the minimum over time. Domestic private rentals face rising standards too. We show you the measures and costs needed to reach the rating you need.
What's included
- Site survey and EPC lodged on the national register
- Recommendations ranked by cost and effect on the rating
- Modelling of improvements before you spend money
- Display Energy Certificates for larger public buildings
FAQs
How long does an EPC last?
Ten years, unless the building changes significantly. A new EPC can be produced sooner to show improvements.
What's the minimum EPC to let a commercial property?
Currently E in England and Wales, with exemptions in some cases. Proposals to raise it are under way, so plan improvements early.
Do you do homes as well as businesses?
Yes. We carry out domestic EPCs for homeowners, landlords and agents, and non-domestic EPCs for commercial buildings.
