Your property’s cheapest legal answer to EPC C.

Costed, ordered, and read out of your property’s own EPC record against the full EPC register for England and Wales. We name the readings that were guessed rather than inspected, the measures your assessor left off the list, what the work costs, and whether you’re exempt. Built from your property’s own EPC record, in your inbox within the hour, then refined by a real person over the next 48. A fraction of a £300 assessor visit.

Letting below band E is already illegal in England and Wales, with penalties up to £5,000. Band C by 2030 is proposed, not yet law. We price both.

The 2030 problem

Plenty of advice says “get to C”. Almost none of it opens your certificate.

You bounce between calculators, half-read grant pages and quotes that don’t agree. None of them tell you which readings on your EPC were guessed, what your assessor left off the list, or whether the ceiling your certificate models even clears C. Get that last one wrong and you can spend thousands and still be unable to let the property.

Generic ranges

“£300 to £25,000” tells you nothing you can budget against.

Wrong order

New boiler before insulation? You’ve oversized it and overpaid.

An invisible ceiling

Your EPC models a maximum score. Land under 69 and the recommended list never reaches C.

Why it’s different

Built on what 19.7 million homes did

Generic advice gives you a measure and a wide price range. We find the homes that match yours on age, type, construction and starting rating, then show what they spent and how far it moved them.

  • Matched, not generic
    Your 1930s semi is compared to other 1930s semis, not the national average.
  • Ordered to save money
    Measures sequenced so each one sizes the next correctly. Fabric first, then heat.
  • Grant-aware
    Every measure is checked against the schemes your postcode and property qualify for.
  • Read below the score
    We work from the element readings behind your rating, one layer under the recommendation list printed on your EPC.

What’s in your Action Plan

One document that does the whole job: specific to your property, not a checklist you have to interpret.

Why your certificate says that number

We take the element readings behind your score one line at a time, and mark which ones your assessor inspected and which RdSAP filled in as a default with no evidence either way.

Whether a fresh EPC moves it

Some ratings shift on paperwork alone, with no work done to the building. Yours may not. We tell you which yours is, what to put in front of an assessor, and when to keep the £60 to £120 in your pocket.

What your assessor left off the list

Measures RdSAP credits that never reached your recommendation list, each one quoting the reading on your own certificate that qualifies it. We attach no point gain to them, because RdSAP publishes none.

The route, ordered and priced

The measures your certificate does recommend, sequenced so each one sizes the next, priced low to high, and checked against the grants your property and postcode qualify for. Hand it to a builder for a real quote.

Your exemption, already filled in

A PRS exemption register entry carrying the ground that fits your property, the evidence list it needs, and a straight read on where your route sits against the £10,000 cost cap.

Improve, hold or sell

The call, made against the spending cap with the payback arithmetic in front of you. Where the spend buys you no compliance, we say so and tell you to keep your money.

Before you buy

Is this a real EPC assessment?+

No. A formal RdSAP assessment means booking an accredited assessor, paying £200–£500, and waiting for a visit. The Action Plan uses your existing EPC record plus the full EPC register for England and Wales to tell you the same decisions: what to do, in what order, for how much. When you’re ready to lodge a new certificate, you’ll know exactly what to ask for.

Where does the data come from?+

Every domestic EPC lodged in England and Wales is public. We’ve analysed the full set: 27,612,160 certificates covering 19,721,103 homes across all 318 local authorities, so we can show what worked for properties that match yours on age, type, construction and current rating.

What if my property can’t reach C?+

Your certificate models a ceiling. If that ceiling lands below 69, where band C starts, the recommended list cannot take you there however much of it you complete. That is the point where most EPC advice goes quiet. We put it on your first page, then do the work that is still open to you: which of your readings were assumed rather than inspected, what RdSAP would credit that your certificate never listed, and the MEES exemption ground that fits, written out with the evidence it needs. A registered exemption is a complete and lawful answer to the standard, so a property you cannot get to C is not a property you cannot let.

How fast will I get my plan?+

Your plan is built from your property’s own EPC record and the full EPC register for England and Wales. It is in your inbox within the hour, then refined by a real person over the next 48. You’ll enter your property postcode at checkout so we know exactly which property to build it for.

What if it’s not useful?+

Then you don’t pay for it. Your plan has to tell you something your own EPC does not: which of its readings were never inspected, what your assessor left off the recommendation list, and whether to spend the money or register an exemption. If it doesn’t, reply to your receipt within 14 days and we’ll refund you in full. No forms, no quibbling. We won’t promise you a band. Some properties model a ceiling below C and no plan lifts it. Where yours is one of them, we tell you on the first page rather than after you’ve paid.
