Energy Performance & Safety Certificates
EPCs contain information on your home's energy use and carbon dioxide emissions and a recommendation report with suggestions on how to reduce these. EPCs carry ratings that compare the current energy efficiency and carbon dioxide emissions with potential figures that your home could achieve.
Potential figures are calculated by estimating what the energy efficiency and carbon dioxide emissions would be if energy saving measures were put in place. The rating measures the energy and carbon emission efficiency of your home using a grade from ‘A’ to ‘G’.
An ‘A’ rating is the most efficient, while ‘G’ is the least efficient. The average efficiency grade to date is 'D'. All homes are measured using the same calculations, so you can compare the energy efficiency of different properties.
Almost every property in England and Wales now requires an Energy Performance Certificate if it is marketed for sale or to let. If you are selling your property or you are a landlord renting a property, then you will need an Energy Performance Certificate.
This is a legal requirement. You are therefore obliged by law to provide an EPC when renting out your property, and failure to comply with this could attract a fine. We will assist you to get this matter attended to, if you have not done so already.
Gas Safety Certificates
It is a legal requirement for landlords to have all the gas appliances in a rented property safety-tested every 12 months by a Gas Safe™ registered engineer and to hold a gas safety certificate (CP12).
You are therefore obliged by law to provide this certificate when renting out your property, and failure to comply with this could attract a fine. We will assist you to get this matter attended to, if you have not done so already.
Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR)
As a landlord, you must by law have the electrical installations in your property inspected at least every 5 years by a qualified electrician. You must also provide a copy of the landlord electrical safety certificate to your tenants, as well as the local authority if requested. Even if you already check your installations regularly, it’s important that you fully understand your electrical safety obligations to keep your tenants safe and make sure any electrical hazards are dealt with swiftly. We will assist you to get this matter attended to, if you have not done so already.
