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 Waltham Forest as it does across England.
EPC assessments in Waltham Forest — local property context
Terraced houses are Waltham Forest's largest housing type, home to 34.7% of households against 21.3% across London. A further 16.4% live in semi-detached and 4.1% in detached houses, so houses hold about 55% of households in all (Census 2021). Council tax records date 64.0% of properties to before 1945, and 24.2% to before 1900 (VOA 2025).
At the 2021 Census, 27.8% of Waltham Forest households rented privately, below London's 30.0%, while 48.9% owned their home and 21.5% rented from a social landlord. Our accredited DEA assessors are experienced with the insulation and heating systems typically found in properties across the E17, E4, E10, E11, IG8, E15 postcode areas, and regularly carry out EPC assessments across Waltham Forest for private landlords, letting agents and HMO operators.
