What is an EPC?

An EPC shows how energy efficient a property is, rating it from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient). It also provides recommendations on how to reduce energy use, cut costs, and lower carbon emissions.

EPCs are a legal requirement whenever a property is sold, rented, or upgraded under government schemes like ECO4 and the Great British Insulation Scheme (GBIS).

Our surveys include:

  • EPC-linked property data

  • Scheme eligibility evidence

  • Photographic documentation

  • Technical notes for installers

  • Full compliance check

Who We Work With

Work Ready Orders – Straight to Install

 

At HomeRoots Energy, we understand that time is money. That’s why we provide Work Ready Orders – complete, compliant project packs that enable your business to move straight from survey to installation without the delays, errors, and rework that often slow down ECO4 and GBIS projects.
