Step 1 of 3

Find your property

Enter your postcode to check your current EPC and arrange an assessment if you need one.

Check when your EPC expires

The property lookup above reads the latest certificate held for your address and shows its expiry date. If it is still valid, we make the existing certificate the main action rather than asking you to buy another.

What happens when an EPC expires?

An expired record can still be viewed, but it is no longer a valid certificate for marketing a property for sale or rent. An owner-occupier who is not selling or letting does not usually need to renew immediately.

How do I renew an EPC?

An EPC is not extended. An accredited domestic energy assessor visits the property, completes a new assessment and lodges a new certificate on the official register.

Do I need to renew immediately?

Renew before you market a property for sale or rent. If neither applies, an expired certificate alone does not normally create an immediate requirement to commission another.

How much does renewal cost?

A renewal is priced like any new assessment. See the full EPC cost guide for typical ranges and the factors that affect quotes.
