The role of
the Domestic Energy Assessor (DEA) is to survey properties and to
produce Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) for inclusion in Home
Information Packs (HIPs). EPCs provide an energy cost
calculation for the property and recommendations for improving the
energy performance of the dwelling. The energy performance rating
will be displayed on an A to G scale and will be recognised from its
close resemblance to the certificates found on domestic white goods
such as washing machines. The legislation which introduced HIPs
states that, by regulation, DEAs must be qualified and
accredited persons and the regulations detail how this is achieved.

An Energy Performance
Certificate is a report detailing the energy efficiency and the
environmental impact of a property calculated by the RdSAP
methodology against standard conditions so that all properties are
assessed on a like for like basis. The report will also list
improvements that can be made to improve energy efficiency and
reduce the environmental impact of the building
When you contact us we will send you a copy of our terms and
conditions and a a simple questionnaire to enable the process
to go as smoothly as possible,
When we have received a signed copy of our engagement
letter we will arrange a mutually convenient time to conduct the
survey. We will send you a
letter or email to confirm the details and provide a briefing on the
process.
On the day of the survey, when we would like a householder
to be present if at all possible, we will go through the details and
conduct the survey. The EPC will be registered on the national
database within
48 hours and a paper copy mailed first class post to an address you
nominate if requested.
We offer a premium service at additional cost which will complete
the process within 24 hours if required.
If you are marketing your house for sale it is a legal
requirement.
If you are not thinking of moving it is still a sensible
step which will give you an understanding of your property's relative energy efficiency and environmental impact and
make recommendations that will reduce your energy costs and reduce
the environmental impact of your home.
The actual survey will take between 1 and 3 hours mainly dependant
on the size of the property. The EPC will be delivered within
48 hours of the completion of the survey. We aim to complete the
survey within 3 days of the EPC being commissioned but this does
require a mutually convenient date and time to be available.
The 24 hour premium service we offer will complete the survey and
deliver the EPC within 24 hours of the EPC being commissioned.
