Our commercial EPCs start from £99.95+VAT. What you'll pay for your building depends mainly on its floor area and how complex it is, and also on where it is and how easy it is to get into.
Our prices are competitive and every property is quoted on its own merits. Send us the details and we'll come back with a firm figure, and the advice that goes with it.
A commercial EPC (Energy Performance Certificate) rates how energy efficient a non-domestic building is, from A+ to G. In England and Wales you need one when you sell or let a shop, office, warehouse, restaurant, hotel or any other non-domestic building, and when a new one is built. Our commercial EPC page covers the service in full.
Tell us the address, what the building is used for and roughly how big it is. We'll come back with a firm quote.

The assessor has to hold a Non-Domestic Energy Assessor (NDEA) qualification at the right level for the building: level 3 for simpler buildings, up to level 5 for the most complex. We'll ask a few questions when you book to work out which level yours needs.
We don't charge up front. We invoice you when the EPC is ready and email the certificate and recommendation report as soon as the invoice is paid.
If the rating comes out lower than you need, our MEES consultation (a separate service) tests combinations of improvements to find the most cost-effective route to a better rating. If you carry out the work and we revisit within 6 months of the original EPC, the new assessment is charged at a reduced fee.
The site visit takes about 30 minutes for a small property and up to a full day for a large one. We produce your EPC in about 4 working days after the visit, and let you know as soon as it's ready.
A commercial EPC is valid for 10 years from the date it's issued, and you can use it for any sale or letting in that time. You can check whether your building already has a valid certificate on the government's EPC register.
If you let the building, the rating matters as well as the certificate. A commercial property rated below E can't be let unless a valid exemption is registered. Our commercial EPC ratings explained page shows how the rating is worked out.

You can also ring us on 0800 170 1201 (Monday to Friday, 9:00 to 17:30). You'll speak to someone who understands commercial EPCs, before the survey and after your certificate arrives.
We produce 5% of commercial EPCs across the UK, more than one in twenty, and regularly survey portfolios of several hundred properties to a deadline. We also offer corporate accounts with monthly billing. Our portfolio services page explains how we run multi-site programmes.
Check that the assessor is accredited at the right NDEA level for your building, that complex buildings are modelled by people who do it every day, and that you can ring someone afterwards to talk the result through. We've been producing EPCs since 2007, our assessors are backed by an in-house energy calculation team, and every certificate is checked by our quality assessor before it's issued.
Our commercial EPCs start from £99.95 + VAT. The final price depends mainly on the building's floor area and how complex it is, plus where it is and how easy it is to get into. Send us the details and we'll give you a firm quote.
It takes longer to survey and to model. Every area used in a different way, and every heating, cooling or ventilation system, has to be recorded on site and built into the energy model.
