What Affects EPC Prices?
Several factors influence how much an EPC will cost:
Property size – Larger properties take longer to assess and typically cost more
Number of bedrooms – Each additional bedroom above three adds to the assessment time
Property type – Detached houses are more complex to assess than flats or terraced properties
Location – Rural or remote locations may incur a slightly higher charge due to assessor travel distance
Assessor availability – High-demand urban areas tend to have competitive pricing due to more assessors operating locally
Urgency – Some providers charge more for same-day or next-day appointments

How long does an EPC last?
+
An EPC is valid for 10 years from the date it was issued. You can reuse an existing valid EPC when selling or letting, unless significant energy-related renovations have been carried out since the certificate was issued.
Do I need an EPC to sell a house?
+
Yes. An EPC is a legal requirement when selling or renting a residential property in the UK. It must be obtained before the property is marketed and made available free of charge to prospective buyers or tenants on request.
Who can carry out an EPC?
+
An EPC can only be carried out by an accredited Domestic Energy Assessor (DEA). DEAs are accredited by organisations such as Elmhurst Energy, Stroma Certification or ECMK, and are listed on the national EPC register. Move-Nest only works with fully accredited DEAs.
How long does an EPC assessment take?
+
A typical domestic EPC assessment takes between 30 and 60 minutes depending on the size and complexity of the property. Larger or more complex properties may take slightly longer. The assessor will inspect the fabric and services of the building to gather the data needed to produce the certificate.
What is the minimum EPC rating for renting?
+
Under the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES), most privately rented properties in England and Wales must have an EPC rating of E or above. Landlords cannot legally let a property that has an F or G rating unless an exemption applies.
