Frequently Asked Questions
Before you use the tools or request a report
The platform is designed to make property energy decisions clearer, while keeping the difference between advisory guidance and official Energy Performance Certificate assessment clear.
Are the property check results official EPC ratings?
No. Results are based on actual Energy Performance Certificate data where available but do not constitute a new Energy Performance Certificate assessment or official Energy Performance Certificate. Where an official Energy Performance Certificate assessment is required, this can be arranged through Make My Home Energy Efficient.
Do you cover Birmingham and the West Midlands?
Yes. Make My Home Energy Efficient provides Energy Performance Certificate assessments and property performance advice across Birmingham, the West Midlands and surrounding areas.
Can I request a paid report without booking a full Energy Performance Certificate assessment?
Yes. You can request a Property Energy Story Report, Energy Performance Certificate Insight Review or Property Efficiency Roadmap depending on the decision you need to make.
Do savings or exemption outputs promise a fixed result?
No. Savings depend on property condition, usage, energy prices and installation quality. Exemption guidance is advisory only and a professional exemption evidence review should only be considered after applicable measures have been installed, evidence has been collected, a post-improvement EPC reassessment has been completed, and the property remains below EPC C.
How do I reach EPC C?
Start by checking the current EPC score, then review the gap to C and the existing EPC recommendations. The free check helps show whether quick wins, medium measures or major works may be needed.
What if my property cannot reach EPC C?
A professional review can help understand whether further practical improvements exist. Exemption evidence review should only be considered after applicable measures have been installed, evidence has been collected, a post-improvement EPC reassessment has been completed and the property still remains below EPC C.
Can an exemption apply?
An exemption evidence review may be worth considering only after applicable measures have been installed, evidence is available, a post-improvement EPC reassessment has been completed and the reassessed property still remains below the required standard. Guidance is advisory only and does not confirm any exemption outcome.
How much does it cost to improve an EPC rating?
Costs vary by property type, condition and measure. Low-cost items may include lighting or controls, while insulation, glazing or heating upgrades can require larger budgets.
How long does it take to recover improvement costs?
Payback depends on the quote cost, expected annual saving, energy use and future energy prices. The ROI calculator estimates the time to recover your money using your own inputs.
Does an EPC Register lookup show my current EPC?
Where a public EPC Register record is available, the lookup can show the current rating, score, certificate details and recommendations. If no record is found, you can continue in manual advisory mode.
