What is an EPC?

An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rates your property's energy efficiency from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient). It's a legal requirement in England and Wales whenever you sell, rent, or build a property.

  • Legally required: You must have a valid EPC before marketing a property for sale or rent. Failure to provide one can result in a fine of up to £5,000.
  • Valid for 10 years: Once issued, your certificate lasts a decade. No need to renew unless you want an updated rating after improvements.
  • Includes recommendations: Every EPC comes with practical suggestions to improve your rating, from loft insulation to upgraded boilers.
  • Registered on a public database: Your certificate is lodged on the government's EPC register within 24 hours of assessment.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about our services in East Ham

How much does an EPC cost in East Ham?
The majority of East Ham properties are 2 or 3 bedroom Edwardian terraces, which fall into our 1-3 bed band at £79. Larger converted properties on Plashet Grove or Katherine Road with 4-5 bedrooms are £115. Houses converted into multiple flats each need a separate EPC.
I'm a landlord in East Ham with an HMO. Do all rooms need an EPC?
If your East Ham HMO is let as a whole house on a single tenancy, you need one EPC for the entire property. However, if you let individual rooms or self-contained units separately, each unit needs its own EPC. This is common in the large Edwardian terraces along Plashet Road and Katherine Road that have been subdivided.
What affects EPC ratings on East Ham's Edwardian terraces?
The Edwardian terraces along streets like Shrewsbury Road, Clements Road and Central Park Road typically have solid brick walls, high ceilings and original sash windows. These features, while attractive, lead to significant heat loss. Suspended timber ground floors and uninsulated party walls between terraces also contribute to lower ratings, with most scoring D or E.
How can I improve the EPC on my East Ham property?
For a typical East Ham Edwardian terrace, the best starting points are replacing an old boiler with a condensing model, draught-proofing original sash windows or fitting secondary glazing, and making sure loft insulation is at least 270mm. Internal wall insulation on the front and rear walls can push a D-rated home towards a C, though this reduces room sizes slightly.
How quickly can you visit East Ham?
We are in the E6 and E7 postcodes frequently, covering East Ham, Upton Park and Plashet. Our assessors travel via the A13 and Barking Road and can usually book you in within 1-2 working days, often with next-day availability.

Properties in East Ham

East Ham is characterised by long streets of Edwardian terraces built between 1900 and 1914, particularly along High Street North, Plashet Road and Central Park Road. Many have decorative bay windows, tiled porches and rear additions. The area also includes inter-war council housing around Priory Road and modern flatted developments near East Ham station.

Common property types

  • Edwardian bay-fronted terraces: The long rows of 1900-1914 terraces along Plashet Road, Shrewsbury Road and Clements Road feature double-height bay windows, solid brick walls and decorative tiled porches. Most are 3-bed and typically rate D or E on their EPC.
  • Converted Victorian houses: Larger properties on Katherine Road and Plashet Grove have been divided into 2-4 self-contained flats. Each unit needs its own EPC, and shared heating systems can complicate assessments.
  • Inter-war council housing: The estates around Priory Road and Boleyn Road built in the 1930s feature cavity-wall construction and are generally easier to insulate than the older Edwardian stock. These can reach C ratings with standard upgrades.
  • Modern flatted developments: New-build blocks near East Ham station and along High Street North are built to current regulations with double glazing, good insulation and efficient communal heating. These typically rate B or C.

Typical EPC issues we find in East Ham

  • Solid walls on Edwardian terraces: Most pre-1914 terraces in East Ham have solid 9-inch brick walls with no cavity. Internal or external insulation is the only option, and many landlords defer this due to cost, leaving properties stuck at D or E ratings.
  • High ceilings increasing heating demand: The generous 2.7m-3m ceiling heights in East Ham's Edwardian houses mean larger volumes to heat. SAP calculations penalise high ceilings, so even well-insulated properties may rate lower than expected.
  • Subdivided properties with shared systems: Many large houses on Katherine Road and Plashet Grove have been split into flats sharing a single boiler. Each flat needs its own EPC, and the shared heating arrangement can reduce efficiency scores.
  • Suspended timber floors: Edwardian terraces across East Ham have draughty suspended timber ground floors. Insulating between the joists or sealing airbricks can improve comfort and EPC scores, but access to the void is often limited.

Why it matters for East Ham landlords

East Ham has one of the densest rental markets in East London, with strong demand from families and young professionals near the District and Hammersmith & City line stations. Many Edwardian terraces have been converted to HMOs or multi-unit lets, each requiring a separate EPC. With enforcement of the minimum E rating increasing, landlords should check their certificates are current and compliant.
