Is your EPC accurate?
Many rented and for-sale homes carry an EPC that overstates how efficient they really are. If a home feels cold or the bills are high but the certificate says otherwise, we'll check the property against its lodged EPC and give you an independent written report.
Accredited & registered
Retrofit is delivered by our accredited partners, so every measure is installed and certified to scheme standards.
The problem
An EPC is only as good as the assumptions behind it. Where a certificate is based on incorrect construction details, or on measures recorded but never actually installed, it can show a better rating than the home deserves — leaving tenants with cold, expensive-to-heat homes and buyers paying for efficiency that isn't there.
What our independent check covers
The lodged EPC, reviewed
We pull the certificate from the register and examine the assumptions behind it — construction, insulation, heating, glazing and more.
The real property, assessed
Our qualified domestic energy assessor inspects the home and records what is actually there, not what was assumed.
An independent report
A plain-English report comparing the two, flagging any overstated measures or wrong assumptions, and what a realistic rating looks like.
Who it is for
Tenants worried about a cold or damp home and high energy bills; buyers doing due diligence before a purchase; and landlords who want the true picture before the 2030 EPC C deadline. If you let a property, our free 2030 Compliance Assessment is the landlord route.

Common questions
Can an EPC really be wrong?
Yes. An EPC relies on the assessor's assumptions and the data available on the day; incorrect construction details, or measures recorded but not present, can overstate the rating.
What do I get?
An independent written report comparing the lodged EPC with the real property, with clear findings and a realistic view of the rating.
Do you lodge a new EPC?
We can arrange a fresh assessment and lodgement where you want a new certificate; the check itself is an independent review. We set out the options in your quote.
