Read EPC recommendations in their building context
Kensington and Chelsea Council publishes sustainable retrofitting advice and householders’ greening guides through its heritage and conservation service. These are useful when an EPC identifies improvements for a home whose appearance or construction needs careful treatment. Before assessment, gather records of secondary glazing, insulation and heating alterations rather than relying on the age or appearance of the street. A home’s location in Chelsea, Kensington or North Kensington cannot establish its energy performance, and neighbouring flats can have different exposure and services.
The borough also provides information about heat networks. If heating or hot water comes from a shared source outside the dwelling, obtain the available system details from the managing agent or landlord. Do not assume that the controls in a flat reveal the full heating arrangement. After the EPC, check the appropriate planning and heritage advice before changing windows, external equipment or building fabric. Listed status or conservation-area location is a reason to investigate the rules for the particular property; it should not be treated as an automatic exemption from having an EPC.
UNDERSTAND YOUR REPORT
A clearer picture of energy performance.
An EPC records a property's assessed energy performance and includes recommendations to consider. The domestic scale runs from A to G. The result depends on the property and evidence available to the assessor.
An existing certificate may already be available on the official register. Check it before arranging another assessment. An EPC is separate from an electrical inspection or gas safety certificate.
From enquiry to certificate.
Agree access and scope
Confirm the appointment with the team. Arrange a keyholder and have relevant installation records ready for the assessor.
Review your EPC
Once the assessment is complete and the certificate is lodged, review its rating and recommendations. Ask about anything you do not understand.
EPC questions in Kensington and Chelsea
Will conservation-area status automatically remove the need for an EPC?
No. Do not assume an exemption from the area designation alone. Establish the requirements for the individual property and seek appropriate advice where needed.
What if my flat does not have its own boiler?
Tell the assessor. Shared heating or hot-water arrangements need to be identified accurately, ideally using information from the landlord or building manager.
Is LPC part of Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea?
No. LPC is an independent property services provider. Council links below are for official guidance; they do not imply council approval or endorsement.
Can I book a business premises through the domestic form?
For shops, offices and other non-domestic premises, request a commercial EPC quote so the building and assessment scope can be reviewed first.
