Energy Performance Certificates for Properties in Chesterfield, Stafford and Mansfield

An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is required by law when you sell your property. The seller is responsible to ensure that they have ordered a EPC at the same time they put their home on the market and be in possession of the EPC within 28 days of marketing the property. Trading standards are responsible for ensuring that home sellers do not break the law and can issue fines up to £200 for non compliance.

It is important to instruct your EPC either before or at the time of putting your home on the market.

We offer our EPC's at only £75.00 inc VAT - which also includes a free floor plan

Ordering your EPC with limeliving is easy and straight forward.

What is an Engery Performace Certificate?

An Energy Performance Certificate tells you how energy efficient your home is on a scale of A-G.  The most efficient homes will have a rating at the upper end of that scale and will therefore be more energy efficient.
The certificate also advises on the impact your home has on the environment, and what improvements you could make to improve the rating of your property.

How is an EPC calculated?

In order to obtain your EPC it will be necessary to arrange an assessment of the property with a fully trained Domestic Energy Assessor (DEA). During this assessment the DEA will  conduct a full survey of the property, recording specific details which are then input into unique software used to calculate the energy rating.
Do I need to make the recommended improvements?

Included in your Energy Performance Certificate is a recommendation report which suggests ways in which you can improve on your home's energy efficiency to save you money and help the environment.  There is no legal requirement to make the improvements, but the recommendations are designed to highlight the cost benefit and payback periods in addition to reducing your home's impact on the environment.

Additional Information

* The average UK rating of a domestic property is 'E' on the A-G scale. Please do not be concerned if your property does not reach the rating you expected as this depends on many factors - including the age of the property, type and age of boiler, insulation thickness etc.

* People who are interested in your home, can request to see the EPC for the property to find out what the rating is and if they would like to make improvements.
