We had our EPC evaluation done recently. The gentleman Ross who we have contacted booked us in quickly in slot that was ideal for us. The evaluation went well and smooth, he has explained step by step what it involves what he is checking and provided us with a recommendation for how to improve things. He was very helpful and professional. Would highly recommend the company!

The Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES) legislation means that landlords cannot grant a new tenancy for a commercial property with an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rated below an E.
How is an EPC calculated?
The energy rating of a Commercial building is a complex calculation which is based on a number of factors. These factors include:
- the construction of the fabric of the building (including walls, floors, roofs and glazing)
- identifying different zones of the building and their dimensions
- whether different zones (or parts) of the building are used for different purposes. This could include retail space, office space, kitchen space and storage for example
- heating, cooling, ventilation and hot water systems used
- the lighting used throughout the building
We then use SBEM Calculations or DSM software to produce your Certificate and recommendations.
How do I find a non-domestic Energy Assessor?
Commercial buildings are divided into three different categories, each with their own level of EPC: Level 3, 4 or 5.
The different levels are defined by the complexity of the building and the sophistication of the heating and ventilation systems.
Energy assessors will need to be qualified for the type of building being assessed. We provide energy assessors who are qualified to produce EPC Certificates for levels 3, 4 and 5.
What is a Commercial Energy Performance Certificate?
A Commercial EPC records the energy efficiency of your building and displays the rating on a graph from A-G.
The best result you can achieve is an A banding and the lowest being G. The rating graph is similar to the labels you see attached to new appliances such as refrigerators and washing machines.
Throughout the UK Energy performance certificates are produced by using standard methods and energy assumptions which allows buildings to be compared with another fairly. By doing this it allows owners, prospective buyers or tenants to view the projected energy consumption and carbon ratings over a yearly basis, so they can consider the overall energy efficiency and fuel costs as part of their investment or living expenses.
All Certificates are accompanied by a Recommendations Report which outlines cost-effective measures that can be put in place to improve the overall energy efficiency rating of a given property. a loft space or to upgrade single glazed area’s to double glazing.
The energy performance certificate is important as more than 50% of the UK’s energy consumption and carbon emissions are produced by the way that we light, heat and generally use buildings. Relatively small changes such as installing low energy or LED lighting in all outlets of a building can have a profound effect on energy consumption.
- A 0 – 25
- B 26 – 50
- C 51-75
- D 76 – 100
- E 101 – 125
- F 126-150
- G over 150
The lower your score, the higher your efficiency!
Frequently Asked Questions
When is an Energy performance certificate required?
Your property’s EPC needs to be available to potential buyers as soon as you start to market your property for sale or rent. EPC Certificates became a regulatory requirement in April 2008. You must get an approved Commercial Energy assessor to produce the EPC.
Commercial EPC Certificates are a requirement on all commercial properties, that are either being sold, built, or rented, and must be provided to a prospective buyer or tenant free of charge.
Are there any cases whereby my building may be exempt?
The answer is yes! The following situations deem your property exempt.
- Some listed buildings
- Building due for demolition resulting in site due for redevelopment
- Building to be sold or rented out with vacant possession
- Places of worship
- Industrial sites, workshops and non-residential agricultural buildings that have a low energy demand.
- Stand-alone commercial buildings with a total useful floor space of less than 50m².
What are the penalties for not having an EPC?
The penalty for not having a valid commercial energy performance certificate available to a prospective buyer or tenant is usually fixed £750.00. However, 12.5 percent of the rateable value of the building can also be charged. Penalties that can be applied under this formula can range from £500 and are capped at £5,000
When do I pay for my survey?
You do not pay anything for your Commercial EPC in Bradford until the survey is has been fully carried out and that you are happy with the service. Invoices will be issued at this point.
What is your Energy Performance Certificate process?
Upon arrival at your property, the energy assessor will introduce themselves and explain the process. They will carry out a Health & Safety risk assessment internally/externally for safety purposes.
The EPC assessor will require access to all areas of the building to enable them to produce your Commercial EPC in Bradford.
The assessor will draw a sketch plan of the overall floor area of the property. Once this is done they will collect information about the building. This will include plans, dimensions of the building, its purpose, the number of floors, the amount and type of glazing (i.e. single or double glazing), the heating systems and the fuel used.
Please note that we respect your property at all times and will ensure that it will be left as it was before we attended for our survey.
