EPC Certificate Barnet — from £89.99

What is an EPC?

An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rates the energy efficiency of a property on a scale from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient). An accredited Domestic Energy Assessor (DEA) inspects the property's insulation, heating system, hot water system, windows and lighting to produce the rating, along with a report of recommended improvements and their estimated cost and impact.

Every landlord in England must provide a valid EPC before marketing a property to let, and the property must meet the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standard (MEES) of an E rating or above. This national standard applies in Barnet as it does across England.

EPC assessments in Barnet — local property context

Little of Barnet's housing predates 1900: 6.5% of council tax properties, against 20.9% across London, while 21.2% were built in the 1930s alone (VOA 2025). Detached houses hold 10.1% of households, against 6.1% London-wide, purpose-built flats 36.6% and terraced houses only 14.9%. A further 1.3% live in a commercial building, such as a flat over a shop (Census 2021).

In 22 of Barnet's 24 wards at least a fifth of homes are privately rented, rising to 48% in Golders Green (Census 2021). Our accredited DEA assessors are experienced with the insulation and heating systems typically found in properties across the EN5, NW9, HA8, NW11, NW4, N12, NW7, N3, N2, EN4, N20, NW2, N11 postcode areas, and regularly carry out EPC assessments across Barnet for private landlords, letting agents and HMO operators.

EPCs in Barnet: F and G lets from Childs Hill to Colindale

Barnet Council has counted 1,298 privately rented homes in the borough with an EPC rating of F or G. Childs Hill had the most, 281, followed by Brunswick Park, East Finchley, Burnt Oak, Colindale North, Cricklewood and Colindale South.

In non-HMO private lets the council inspected from 2020 to 2025, excess cold, and damp and mould growth, were the largest category 1 hazards, together making up 27% of all hazards found.

Before acting on an EPC's recommendations in Hampstead Garden Suburb, Mill Hill or another conservation area, check what consent is needed. The council says approvals for energy efficiency works must be in place before work starts. Ten of its conservation areas have Article 4 directions removing some permitted development rights.
