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.

Very professional, communicated prior to visit and offered consultancy on how to improve the energy rating and provided the EPC on the same day! Highly recommend the service.

Very professional and got report done on same day.

Properties in Thamesmead

In London Borough of Bexley / Royal Borough of Greenwich, Thamesmead is known for the 1960s and 70s planned estate on the Thames, now being regenerated. The area is mostly made up of post-war estate housing and flats, and every property needs a valid EPC before it can be marketed for sale or rent. Abbey Wood station gives good access if you don't drive.

Common property types

  • Post-war estate housing: Post-war estate homes around Thamesmead are sometimes built from concrete or timber frame rather than traditional brick, and a number still have electric storage heaters instead of gas central heating, which has a real effect on the rating.
  • Converted and purpose-built flats: Flats in Thamesmead, whether converted from a house or purpose-built, each need their own EPC. Whether the heating is communal or individual to the flat is the main thing that affects the rating here.

Typical EPC issues we find in Thamesmead

  • Electric storage heating: Some of the post-war housing in Thamesmead was fitted with electric storage heaters rather than gas central heating. They cost more to run and tend to score lower on an EPC than an equivalent gas-heated home, even where insulation is decent.
  • Flat roof extensions: Rear and kitchen extensions with flat roofs are common in Thamesmead. Where they haven't been insulated to current standards, they can quietly pull down an otherwise decent rating.
  • Uninsulated ground floors: Suspended timber or solid concrete ground floors with no insulation are common in the older parts of Thamesmead. It's easy to overlook but it does factor into the overall heat loss figure.

Why it matters for Thamesmead landlords

Landlords in Thamesmead letting through London Borough of Bexley / Royal Borough of Greenwich need a valid EPC rated E or above before a new tenancy starts, under the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards. With a lot of the local stock being post-war estate housing and flats, an older boiler or under insulated walls is usually the first thing worth checking if a rating comes back lower than expected.
