Why It is important that your EPC accurately reflects your property.
Selling or renting your home, buyers and tenants are taking more interest in the energy ratings of properties. Don’t listen to estate agents or letting agents who say no one looks at them.
The ever rising domestic fuel costs could be a deciding factor, a home that is more energy efficient with a higher EPC rating may add value.
