EPCs and HIPs

Going Green provide Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs), which rate the energy performance of your property and provide recommendations for improving the energy performance and environmental impact of your property. These form part of the Home Information Packs (HIPs), which we can also provide.

You need an Energy Performance Certificate if you are

  • Selling your home

  • Renting your home to a new tenant after October 2008
  • An Energy Performance Certificate
  • provides an easy and accessible A-G rating (similar to the energy efficiency rating on fridges) for your home

  • gives you an indication of the running costs for your home

  • helps you save money on fuel bills

  • helps you reduce the environmental impact of your home

  • gives a picture of your home's energy efficiency and identifies steps to improve it

  • is compulsory for home sellers, but can be commissioned at any stage by anyone interested in assessing the environmental impact of their home.

  • will be compulsory from October 2008 for landlords with a change in tenancy

  • Our homes currently account for about 27% of the UK's carbon emissions. Energy Performance Certificates offer individual home owners, user-friendly information needed to reduce the environmental impact of our homes and our energy bills.

    Energy Performance Certificates cost from £90. HIPs cost from £285. Contact us on 0845 8699297 or email to order your EPC / HIP.
