EPCs for landlords in Leicester
Letting a property or reviewing your portfolio? Arrange a domestic EPC assessment with 1st EPC, covering Leicester, Leicestershire and LE postcodes.
From £79 for 1–3 bedroom properties. Larger properties are quoted individually. Same-day assessments and on-the-spot certificates are available, subject to appointment availability.
Check your existing certificate first
An EPC shows the property’s energy-efficiency rating from A to G and recommendations for improvement. Certificates are generally valid for 10 years unless replaced by a newer certificate.
Minimum standards for rented homes
Domestic private rented properties in England and Wales that fall within the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards regulations must currently meet EPC band E or above, unless a valid exemption applies. Check the official guidance for the rules that apply to your property.
Future standards are being developed. Always check the latest government guidance before planning works or making letting decisions.
Read the current government landlord guidance.
Preparing for the assessment
Arrange access with your tenant or agent, including rooms, heating controls and any safely accessible loft. Have relevant insulation and improvement documents available so the assessor can review the evidence.
Other property services
Ask about gas safety certificates, property inventories and Legionella risk assessments. We will confirm the scope, price and availability of each service before booking.
