Building energy performance assessment — Energy performance certificate adviser — Professionals

A suitable assessor can document the property's relevant features and apply the correct methodology without promising the outcome in advance. Separate a formal assessment from a client's request for a better rating or a bespoke energy-use simulation.

Service scope

A defined assessment of the building features and systems used by the applicable energy-performance method, leading to the agreed assessment record or certificate. It is not a measurement of every occupant's actual consumption, nor a general investigation of structural or safety defects.

What is normally included

  • Collection of assessment evidence
  • Relevant building-feature inspection
  • Preparation of the specified assessment output

What is not included

  • Guaranteed energy bills or a predetermined rating
  • Structural, electrical or gas safety certification

Qualification checks

  • Identify the correct assessment method
  • Confirm property boundaries
  • Review evidence authenticity
  • Arrange access to relevant areas
  • Define the certificate and report outputs

Quote guidance

Price the building assessment and any required submission as a defined package, listing follow-up visits separately. Explain how absent records or multiple building units may affect the work rather than pricing only from the property's street address.

Lead risks

  • A previous certificate may refer to a different building extent
  • Access and documentary gaps can cause repeat visits
