What is an EPC?

An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rates your property's energy efficiency from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient). It's a legal requirement in England and Wales whenever you sell, rent, or build a property.

  • Legally required: You must have a valid EPC before marketing a property for sale or rent. Failure to provide one can result in a fine of up to £5,000.
  • Valid for 10 years: Once issued, your certificate lasts a decade. No need to renew unless you want an updated rating after improvements.
  • Includes recommendations: Every EPC comes with practical suggestions to improve your rating, from loft insulation to upgraded boilers.
  • Registered on a public database: Your certificate is lodged on the government's EPC register within 24 hours of assessment.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about our services in Deptford

How much does an EPC cost in Deptford?
Most Deptford properties are 1-3 bedroom flats or terraced houses at £79. The larger Victorian houses in New Cross with 4-5 bedrooms cost £115. Very few Deptford properties have 6 or more bedrooms, but if yours does, it's £140.
Do I need an EPC for a council flat I'm buying through Right to Buy?
Yes. An EPC is required for every property sale in England, including Right to Buy purchases. Many council flats on the Pepys Estate and other Deptford estates were built with concrete panel construction and may have lower EPC ratings. It's worth getting the assessment done early so you know the property's energy rating before completing.
What affects EPC ratings in Deptford?
The riverside council estates like the Pepys Estate have concrete panel or system-built construction with poor thermal properties. Victorian terraces on Deptford High Street, Edward Street, and around New Cross Gate have solid walls and older windows. The Georgian houses on Albury Street face conservation restrictions. New-build apartments at Marine Wharf and Deptford Foundry generally achieve excellent ratings.
How can I improve the EPC on my Deptford property?
For Victorian terraces in New Cross, loft insulation and boiler upgrades are the best starting points. In council flats, replacing old storage heaters with modern panel heaters and improving heating controls can help, though structural insulation may need freeholder consent. For any property, low-energy lighting and hot water cylinder insulation are quick, low-cost improvements.
How quickly can you visit Deptford?
We cover SE8 and SE14 regularly and can usually visit within 1-2 working days. We reach Deptford via the A2 and A200 Creek Road, and we know the parking around Deptford High Street, New Cross Road, and the various estate access roads.

Properties in Deptford

Deptford's housing stock reflects its working-class dockland heritage and rapid recent regeneration. The Pepys Estate and other riverside council blocks sit alongside the Georgian terraces of Albury Street, one of London's best-preserved early Georgian streets. New Cross towards SE14 has Victorian terraces and purpose-built mansion flats, while major new developments at Convoys Wharf, Marine Wharf, and Deptford Foundry are transforming the area with thousands of modern apartments.

Common property types

  • Council estate flats: The Pepys Estate, Crossfields Estate, and Sayes Court area contain large numbers of council-built flats from the 1960s-70s. Concrete panel and system-built construction typically gives D to F ratings.
  • Georgian terraces: Albury Street is one of London's finest preserved early Georgian streets, with grade II listed 3-storey townhouses. Solid walls, single glazing, and listed status make improvements challenging. Typically rated E or F.
  • Victorian terraces: Found along Deptford High Street, Edward Street, and throughout the New Cross area towards SE14. Solid brick, 2-3 bedrooms, usually rated D or E.
  • New-build apartments: Major developments at Convoys Wharf, Marine Wharf, Deptford Foundry, and Timberyard are adding thousands of modern flats. Built to Part L standards, these achieve A or B ratings.

Typical EPC issues we find in Deptford

  • System-built council blocks: The Pepys Estate towers and slab blocks use non-standard construction techniques from the 1960s that make conventional insulation impossible without specialist external cladding.
  • Listed Georgian properties: Albury Street and other listed Deptford buildings face strict restrictions on window replacement, wall insulation, and even boiler flue positions, severely limiting improvement options.
  • Victorian solid walls in New Cross: The dense Victorian terraces around New Cross Gate and Deptford Broadway have solid 9-inch brick walls with no cavity, making wall insulation the biggest challenge for improving ratings.
  • Old electric storage heating: Many council flats and older conversions in Deptford still use outdated electric storage heaters, which receive very poor efficiency scores in the EPC calculation compared to gas central heating.

Why it matters for Deptford landlords

Deptford's rental market has grown significantly with the area's regeneration, attracting students from Goldsmiths and young professionals priced out of neighbouring Greenwich and Bermondsey. Much of the rental stock is in older council flats and Victorian conversions where EPC ratings can be poor. All rental properties must have a valid EPC rated E or above, and landlords should budget for improvements if their property uses old storage heating or has uninsulated solid walls.
