EPCs in Penzance – Local Energy Performance Certificates

If you’re selling or renting a property in Penzance, you’ll need a valid Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) before the property can be marketed. I provide local EPCs in Penzance and surrounding areas, helping homeowners, landlords and property professionals meet legal requirements quickly and efficiently.

As a locally based assessor working across Cornwall, I regularly carry out EPC assessments in Penzance and nearby communities, ensuring accurate, fair assessments tailored to the property type.

An EPC is required if you are:

• Selling a property
• Letting a property to new tenants
• Advertising a property for sale or rent

The EPC must be commissioned before marketing begins and is valid for 10 years, unless major changes are made to the property.

What happens during an EPC assessment?

An EPC assessment in Penzance typically takes 45–90 minutes, depending on the size and age of the property. During the visit, I assess:

• Construction type (walls, roof and floors)
• Insulation levels where visible
• Heating and hot water systems
• Windows and glazing
• Lighting and ventilation

Most certificates are lodged and available within 24–48 hours of the appointment.

EPCs for older and traditional properties in Penzance

Penzance has a mix of property styles, including:

• Granite and stone cottages
• Solid-wall terraces
• Post-war housing
• Modern estates

Accurately recording construction type is especially important for older properties. Local knowledge helps ensure the EPC reflects the building fairly and avoids incorrect assumptions.

I regularly carry out EPC assessments in Penzance and surrounding areas such as Newlyn and Marazion, which means travel times are reasonable and appointments can usually be arranged promptly.
