EPC, retrofit assessment and coordination in Nuneaton, a short drive from our base

EPC assessors and retrofit professionals covering Nuneaton

Nuneaton is Warwickshire's largest town, and its property market keeps moving: first-time buyers, commuters to Coventry, Leicester and Birmingham, and a steady rental sector. Whichever you are dealing with, an EPC has to be ordered before the property is advertised.

We survey in person, lodge the certificate on the government register and send you the digital copy. Agents in the town can book several properties at once, and owners planning improvements can add a retrofit assessment to the same visit.

Nuneaton's housing, street by street

Nuneaton grew on coal, brick-making, textiles and the railway, and you can read that history in its streets.

• Victorian and Edwardian terraces around Abbey Green, Attleborough and Chilvers Coton. Solid walls, often with a later kitchen extension that has to be assessed as a separate part of the house.
• Interwar and post-war semis in Stockingford, Weddington and Whitestone. Usually cavity-walled, which raises the familiar question of whether the fill can be proven.
• Estates from the 1970s to the 1990s at St Nicolas Park and Horeston Grange. These generally rate well for their age, with loft insulation depth and the age of the boiler deciding the band.
• Camp Hill, where a long regeneration programme has replaced much of the older housing with new homes.
• New developments on the northern edge of the town around Weddington. A new home comes with a certificate from its builder that lasts 10 years, so check the register before ordering another.

Landlords in Nuneaton

Landlords here deal with two authorities. Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council is the housing authority: it licenses larger HMOs under the national mandatory scheme and enforces the minimum energy efficiency standard for rented homes. Warwickshire County Council's Trading Standards service enforces the duty to have an EPC when a property is marketed.

The national rules apply in Nuneaton as everywhere else: band E to let today, and the equivalent of band C by 1 October 2030, with spending capped at £10,000 per property. For most rental properties £10,000 is a large sum, so it helps to know which improvements do the most for the money. Our landlord guide sets out the detail.

Retrofit, grants and renewables in Nuneaton

Much of Nuneaton's housing responds well to simple measures: cavity walls that can be filled, lofts that can be topped up and roofs with room for solar panels. The older terraces need more thought.

• Warm Homes: Local Grant. Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council has been taking expressions of interest from homeowners whose homes are rated D to G.
• Boiler Upgrade Scheme. £7,500 towards a heat pump, claimed through an MCS certified installer.
• Solid-walled terraces. Insulating these safely means dealing with moisture and ventilation at the same time. That is what a PAS 2035 retrofit assessment is for, and the Warm Homes schemes require one before any work is designed.

We carry out retrofit assessments and coordination in Nuneaton for homeowners, landlords, installers and housing providers.

Our guides to grants and schemes, heat pumps and solar panels go into the detail. Local schemes open and close as funding is allocated, so check the council's own page before relying on any of this.
