4 Bed EPC

Service Description

Four-bedroom homes are rarely all one thing. A good proportion started life as three-beds and gained a bedroom through a loft conversion, a rear extension or a garage that became a room. Each part was built to whatever standard applied at the time, and the assessment treats them separately rather than averaging the house out. That cuts both ways. A modern extension built to current building regulations is usually better insulated than the original house and lifts the overall figure. A converted garage done without proper insulation underneath and around it drags it down, often more than owners expect. A conservatory is treated differently depending on whether it is heated and whether external-quality doors separate it from the house. A loft conversion depends almost entirely on how much insulation went into the roof slope. When you book, mention any extension, conversion or heated outbuilding. It does not change the price — £150 covers a four-bed whatever shape it is in — but it means the right amount of time is set aside and everything gets done in one visit. About an hour on site. Access is needed to the loft hatch, the boiler, and any heated space you want included. The finished report shows the current rating, what the property could reach, and a costed list of what would get it there.
