EPC Certificate Hillingdon — 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 Hillingdon as it does across England.

EPC assessments in Hillingdon — local property context

Hillingdon is London's second-largest borough, covering 42 square miles, and the council says more than half of it is countryside. Heathrow Airport and RAF Northolt are both within its boundary. The council's 2025 housing tenure survey counts 113,124 residential properties across the borough, of which 29,099 are privately rented.

Private renting rose from 19.1% of households in 2011 to 25.9% in 2021, London's joint second-largest rise, the council says. In April 2025, 1,968 local landlords held LLAS accreditation. Our accredited DEA assessors are experienced with the insulation and heating systems typically found in properties across the HA4, UB3, UB10, UB4, UB8, UB7, HA6, HA5, UB9 postcode areas, and regularly carry out EPC assessments across Hillingdon for private landlords, letting agents and HMO operators.

EPCs in Hillingdon: what licensing inspections will pick up

Hillingdon Council says its licensing inspections will also identify tenants on low incomes living in homes rated E, F or G, so it can refer them to support and advise their landlords. Its licensing evidence counts 2,667 privately rented homes with EPC records in those bands, 217 of them rated F or G, though it notes some may be exempt.

Where a home falls below the legal minimum and the landlord ignores the council's advice and support, the council says its Private Sector Housing team will work to bring it into compliance. An F or G rating without a valid exemption is therefore the one it can act on.
