How it works

  1. Book a slot

    Pick a time online or give me a ring. Evenings and weekends included.

  2. I visit your home

    60 to 90 minutes for most houses. I have a look at the heating, insulation, windows and meters — nothing invasive, no mess.

  3. Certificate sorted

    Your EPC is emailed to you and lodged on the national register within 24 hours of the visit.

Letting someone into your home matters.

An EPC means having a stranger walk round your house. I get that. So here’s exactly how I work:

  • I show ID at the door, every time.
  • Shoes off — it’s your home.
  • I work around you, the kids, the dog. You don’t need to follow me about.
  • Nothing invasive — no holes drilled, nothing moved. Just measurements and photos.

Where I cover

Fixed prices for every WN postcode across the borough. I’m out most days between Wigan town centre, Standish, Shevington and Aspull in the north, and across to Orrell, Billinge and Pemberton on the west side. I cover Hindley, Ince, Abram and Platt Bridge, down through Ashton-in-Makerfield, Golborne and Lowton, and over to Leigh, Atherton, Tyldesley and Astley in the east.

Outside WN? Send me the postcode — I can often travel further, and I’ll come back with a price.

Questions people ask

What is an EPC?

An Energy Performance Certificate rates how energy efficient your home is, from A down to G, and lists practical ways to improve it. You need a valid one when you sell or let a property in England and Wales.

How much does an EPC cost?

£65 covers homes up to 3 bedrooms across WN postcodes. It’s £75 for 4 bedrooms and £85 for 5 — after that, get in touch for a quote. Outside WN, send me the postcode and I’ll come back with a price. The price I quote is the price you pay — no hidden extras.

When do I legally need one?

Before your home goes on the market — whether you’re selling or renting it out. Landlords also need a minimum rating of E to let a property, with some exemptions.

How long does an EPC last?

Ten years. If yours is older than that, or you’ve had major work done — a new boiler, windows, insulation — it’s worth getting a fresh one.

How long does the visit take?

Between 60 and 90 minutes for most homes. Larger properties can take a little longer.

What do you look at during the visit?

Your heating system, hot water, insulation, windows, lighting and how the property is built. I take measurements and photos as evidence for the certificate. Nothing invasive — no holes drilled, no mess.

Do I need to prepare anything?

Not much. Clear access to the loft hatch, the boiler and your gas and electricity meters speeds things up. Any paperwork for insulation or a new boiler is a bonus — it can lift your rating.
