THE RIGHT CERTIFICATE
Choose the service that matches your property. If you are unsure, tell us how the building is used when you enquire.
For houses, flats and other residential properties in Blackheath. Contact us about a single home, a rental property or several addresses you manage.
Include the property type and number of bedrooms so we can discuss the assessment and access needed.
Enquire about a residential EPCFor shops, offices, warehouses and other non-domestic premises in Blackheath. We will discuss the building before confirming your quote.
Share the floor area if known, the current use and whether the enquiry covers the whole building or an individual unit.
Enquire about a commercial EPCSandwell’s design-code baseline describes interwar housing around Blackheath and Tividale, including semi-detached homes and short terraces with more generous gardens than the older tightly arranged streets. This is useful local context, rather than a claim that every Blackheath home has the same age or construction.
For a semi-detached house, consider what has changed since it was first built. A side addition, replacement roof, converted garage or new heating system can alter the information required for an EPC. Records of those works may be especially helpful where insulation is concealed and cannot be identified from a visual inspection alone.
Sandwell’s housing directory records retirement accommodation on Blackheath High Street as well as the local housing hub based at the library. For an individual flat or similar self-contained home, check the exact unit address on any existing certificate. The fact that accommodation is managed as one scheme does not mean another dwelling’s EPC describes yours.
Ask the managing agent about access and any communal heating information before an appointment. Explain which services are shared and which are within the dwelling. This helps the assessor plan the visit and prevents access to a communal entrance being mistaken for access to the actual home.
For a commercial property near the centre, provide its use, approximate area and details of separate occupiers. Upper-floor offices or residential accommodation should be mentioned, as should different heating systems. Clarifying these features early helps distinguish a straightforward business-unit assessment from a mixed-use building.
Landlords should retain documentation for completed energy upgrades and compare an old EPC with the property’s current specification. EPC Agent also covers nearby Rowley Regis, Cradley Heath, Halesowen and Oldbury. Contact us with the property details and preferred dates to discuss appointment availability.
When selling or letting a property in England, check for an appropriate valid certificate and commission one before marketing if required. Covered private rentals must also meet the current minimum EPC E standard unless a valid exemption applies. A building's age or conservation-area address does not automatically establish an exemption.
Read our landlord EPC guide and what affects the cost of an EPC for the current rules and practical preparation. For business premises, see commercial EPC requirements.

Book an EPC AssessmentLOCAL QUESTIONS
No. Age and appearance do not prove that insulation was installed. Provide any guarantee or installation specification and let the assessor establish what can be recorded.
Match the EPC to the individual dwelling and arrange access through the relevant manager if necessary. Ask for technical information where heating or hot water is communal.
Yes, make an enquiry describing both uses and their access and services. Residential and non-domestic assessment requirements need to be considered appropriately.
Not necessarily. It changes the building’s floor area and heat-loss characteristics as well as adding newer construction. The result depends on the dwelling as a whole.
Local character information is informed by the council sources below. Historical appraisals describe the area's development; they do not establish an individual property's construction, energy rating or current planning status.
