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 Croydon as it does across England.

Legal requirement: The Energy Performance of Buildings (England and Wales) Regulations 2012 require a valid EPC before any residential property in Croydon is marketed to let. Under MEES, properties rated F or G cannot lawfully be let, and failure to provide a valid EPC can result in a local authority penalty of up to £5,000.

EPC assessments in Croydon — local property context

Houses outnumber flats in Croydon. At the 2021 Census, 24.7% of households lived in semi-detached houses, 23.3% in terraces and 12.2% in detached houses, against 29.0% in purpose-built flats and 8.5% in flats in converted or shared houses. By build date, 23.5% of council tax properties are from 1919 to 1939 and 25.7% from 1945 to 1982 (VOA 2025).

The council estimates that 31.2% of Croydon's housing stock is privately rented. The 2021 Census counted households instead and found 25.8% renting privately, below London's 30.0%. Our accredited DEA assessors are experienced with the insulation and heating systems typically found in properties across the CR0, CR2, CR7, SE25, CR8, CR5, SE19, SW16 postcode areas, and regularly carry out EPC assessments across Croydon for private landlords, letting agents and HMO operators.
