Usually either the seller, landlord or an agent is responsible for obtaining the Commercial EPC certificate when it is legally required (if the building is being sold or leased). When a lease assignment is taking place, the law considers a sale to have taken place and the assign or should provide the commercial EPC. In relation to modifications, a EPC is only needed if the fixed services (heating, ventilation and/or air conditioning) are changed.

Assessing a commercial building for EPC generally takes longer than for a domestic property. All zones need to be individually identified and dimensions taken, and all glazing and doors need to be measured.

We undertake all types of commercial property assessments; shops, offices, hotels, factories, workshops, warehouses, supermarkets, sports centres to name a few.
