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 Shortlands
Properties in Shortlands
In London Borough of Bromley, Shortlands is known for the Victorian villas around Shortlands station. The area is mostly made up of larger Georgian and Victorian homes and Victorian and Edwardian terraces, and every property needs a valid EPC before it can be marketed for sale or rent. Shortlands station gives good access if you don't drive.
Common property types
- Georgian and Victorian family homes: Shortlands has a good number of larger Georgian and Victorian houses, usually with solid walls, high ceilings and a boiler that's been upgraded at some point. Loft insulation and heating controls tend to be the quickest wins for these properties.
- Victorian and Edwardian terraces: Terraced housing near the centre of Shortlands mostly dates from the Victorian and Edwardian era, built with solid brick walls and suspended timber floors. The age of the heating system is usually the biggest factor in the final score.
Typical EPC issues we find in Shortlands
- Ageing boilers: A good number of the older properties in Shortlands are still running on a boiler that's ten, twenty or more years old. Swapping an old back boiler or non-condensing unit for a modern condensing one is usually the single biggest improvement we can suggest.
- Uninsulated ground floors: Suspended timber or solid concrete ground floors with no insulation are common in the older parts of Shortlands. It's easy to overlook but it does factor into the overall heat loss figure.
- Flat roof extensions: Rear and kitchen extensions with flat roofs are common in Shortlands. Where they haven't been insulated to current standards, they can quietly pull down an otherwise decent rating.
