Book an EPC in Lancaster with clear pricing
An EPC provides a clear rating of a property’s energy efficiency, ranging from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient). It highlights how energy is currently used in the home and includes recommendations for improving efficiency, which can help reduce running costs and increase appeal to buyers or tenants.In Lancaster, EPCs are commonly required for residential sales, new tenancies, and certain commercial transactions. Most assessments take between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the size and layout of the property. Once completed, the certificate is lodged on the national register and remains valid for ten years unless major changes are made to the building.
