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 Hackney
Properties in Hackney
Hackney is one of East London's most dynamic boroughs, with a housing stock ranging from Georgian squares in De Beauvoir to Victorian terraces, extensive council estates, and new warehouse-style conversions. The borough has a massive rental market and extremely high demand for EPCs.
Common property types
- Georgian terraces in De Beauvoir: The De Beauvoir Town conservation area has elegant Georgian terraces from the 1830s-1840s. Thick solid walls, tall sash windows, and basement levels. Most have been converted into two or three large flats commanding premium rents.
- Victorian terraces: Found throughout Hackney Central, London Fields, and Clapton. These 1860s-1890s terraces have solid brick walls, bay windows, and slate roofs. A very high proportion have been converted into flats, with quality ranging from professional refurbishments to basic 1970s splits.
- Council estates: Hackney has some of the most extensive council housing in London, from tower blocks to low-rise estates. Construction includes concrete panel, brick, and system-built types. Many units are now privately owned and rented, and EPC ratings vary enormously by block and construction type.
- Warehouse conversions around Hackney Wick: Former industrial buildings converted to residential lofts and apartments, particularly around the canal and Hackney Wick station. Conversion quality and EPC ratings vary, but well-converted units with modern insulation achieve C or B.
Typical EPC issues we find in Hackney
- Solid walls throughout period stock: Georgian and Victorian properties across Hackney have solid brick or London stock brick walls with no cavity. In conservation areas like De Beauvoir, external insulation is not permitted, and internal insulation reduces room sizes in already-divided flats.
- Electric heating in council towers: Many of Hackney's council-built tower blocks use electric storage heating or warm-air systems. These score very poorly on EPCs, and converting to gas is often not feasible in high-rise buildings.
- Multiple heating systems in converted houses: Converted Victorian houses often have different heating arrangements on each floor, sometimes mixing gas, electric, and older systems. The EPC assessment for each flat captures only its own heating, but mixed systems complicate the picture.
