As you are probably aware, this year government legislation will require commercial properties and public buildings to have an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) or Display Energy Certificate (DEC), every time such properties are newly constructed, sold or leased.
Are you prepared? Do you have an Energy Performance Certificate and Display Energy Certificate provider in place yet?
This is where Lamb Home Inspectors Ltd can help. We’ve already got a handle on the latest government legislation and can quickly and efficiently provide EPCs and DECs.

What is an EPC?
The EPC gives an energy efficiency rating of a property on a scale of 0-100. The rating is a measure of the overall efficiency of a property. The higher the rating, the more energy efficient the property is and the lower the fuel bills will be. EPCs are valid for a maximum of 10 years on a commercial property.
What is a DEC?
A Display Energy Certificate shows the energy performance of a building based on actual energy consumption as recorded annually over periods up to the last three years.
DECs need to be updated each year.
