EPC Assessors in Arun
An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is a legal requirement when you sell or let a property in Arun. It rates your home's energy efficiency on a scale from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient), and shows potential buyers or tenants how much it might cost to heat and light the property.
The housing stock in Arun presents some interesting energy challenges. Most properties here are houses built in the mid-20th century, which means they often lack the insulation standards we'd expect in modern homes. The average EPC rating across the area is D, and around 60% of properties fall below the more efficient C rating. This is fairly typical for older housing stock, but it does mean many homeowners have genuine opportunities to improve their energy efficiency and reduce bills.
If you own a property in Arun, loft insulation is the most commonly recommended improvement by assessors. This makes sense – it's one of the most cost-effective ways to reduce heat loss, and many older homes have little or no insulation in their roof spaces. Adding or topping up loft insulation can make a noticeable difference to both your EPC rating and your heating costs.

Frequently asked questions
An EPC (Energy Performance Certificate) is a legal requirement when you sell or let a property in Arun. It rates your home's energy efficiency on a scale from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient), and provides recommendations for improvements. You'll need one before marketing your property, whether you're selling or renting it out.
The average EPC rating in Arun is D. However, around 60% of properties in the area fall below EPC C, which means many homes have room for energy efficiency improvements. If your property is rated D or lower, you may want to consider upgrades to increase its value and appeal to buyers or tenants.
An EPC certificate is valid for 10 years from the date it's issued. If your certificate is expiring soon and you're planning to sell or let your property, you'll need to arrange a new assessment. There's no need to renew it if you're not moving or letting out your home.
For most properties in Arun, which tend to be mid-20th century houses, loft insulation is the most recommended improvement. Adding or upgrading loft insulation is cost-effective, improves your EPC rating, and helps reduce heating bills. Other common recommendations include cavity wall insulation, boiler upgrades, and improved heating controls.
Yes, absolutely. Making energy efficiency improvements can boost your EPC rating and make your property more attractive to buyers or tenants. Loft insulation is particularly effective and relatively affordable. However, remember that your EPC certificate is based on the property's condition at the time of assessment, so improvements must be completed before the new assessment takes place.
