Wiltshire EPC Assessors
If you're buying, selling or renting a property in Wiltshire, you'll need an Energy Performance Certificate. This document rates how energy efficient your home is, from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient). You can't legally complete a property sale or let without one.
Wiltshire's housing stock is predominantly made up of houses, many built in the mid-20th century. These older properties tend to have lower energy efficiency ratings. The average EPC rating across the county is D, and around 60% of homes fall below a C rating. This reflects the age of many Wiltshire properties and the challenges of improving energy efficiency in traditional buildings.
The good news is that most properties have clear opportunities for improvement. Loft insulation is the most commonly recommended upgrade in the area. It's usually straightforward to install, relatively affordable, and can make a noticeable difference to your heating bills and comfort levels.

Frequently asked questions
An EPC (Energy Performance Certificate) is a legal document that rates your property's energy efficiency on a scale from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient). In Wiltshire, you must have a valid EPC when selling or renting out your property. It shows potential buyers or tenants how much energy your home uses and what it costs to run. The certificate is valid for 10 years.
The average EPC rating in Wiltshire is D. However, around 60% of properties in the area fall below EPC rating C, which means many homes have room for improvement. If your property is rated D or lower, you may want to consider energy-saving upgrades to make it more attractive to buyers or tenants and reduce running costs.
An EPC certificate typically costs between £35 and £120, depending on your property's size and location within Wiltshire. Most properties pay around £50 to £80. You should use an accredited assessor, and the cost is usually a one-off expense when you need the certificate for a sale or let.
Loft insulation is the most recommended improvement for Wiltshire properties and offers excellent value for money. Since many homes here date from the mid-20th century, they often lack adequate insulation. Adding or upgrading loft insulation can improve your EPC rating and significantly reduce heating costs. Other improvements include cavity wall insulation, draught-proofing, and upgrading to a more efficient boiler.
Yes, landlords in Wiltshire must provide an EPC before advertising a property to let. It's a legal requirement under the Energy Performance of Buildings Regulations. The certificate must be given to prospective tenants before they view the property, and you must keep it for the duration of the tenancy. Failure to provide an EPC can result in fines.
