What Is an EPC and Why You Need One
An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) shows how energy efficient your property is, from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient).
If you’re selling, renting, or building a property in East or West Sussex, a valid EPC is legally required. It provides vital information about energy use and potential improvements, helping you lower bills and reduce carbon emissions.
At First Certify, we provide fast, professional EPC assessments across Sussex - so you can stay compliant and energy smart.
Who Needs an EPC?
You’ll need an EPC if you’re:
Selling a home: required before marketing a property
Renting out: landlords must provide tenants with a valid EPC
Managing a commercial property: offices, shops, and industrial spaces all require EPCs
Building new homes or conversions: EPCs are mandatory before completion
