Green Deal Newport EPC Services – Domestic Energy Assessment – Energy Performance Certificates.
Green Deal Newport EPC Services provides professional Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs in Newport) for homes across Newport, Caldicot, Blaenavon and the surrounding area.
As qualified and accredited Domestic Energy Assessors (DEAs), we provide precise, fully compliant energy surveys and issue the EPCs needed when selling or renting a property.
We offer prompt appointments, straightforward guidance, and certificates that are submitted directly to the official Government EPC register.
The information required for EPCs has expanded significantly in recent months. While assessments once typically took 30–60 minutes, the increased level of detail now means that 60 minutes is the minimum, with some properties requiring up to 90 minutes or more.
We always strive to deliver your certificate as quickly as possible—usually on the same day as the assessment.

What We Offer
We provide a complete range of EPC services for domestic properties across Newport and nearby areas.
EPCs for Home Sales
If you’re selling your property, it’s a legal requirement to have a valid Energy Performance Certificate. Many estate agents can arrange this for you, but their fees are often much higher.
You do not need an EPC if it is a “private sale”, i.e. the property is not being marketed.
There may already be an EPC on your home—certificates remain valid for up to 10 years. If it hasn’t expired, it can still legally be used for the sale.
However, older EPCs may no longer reflect your property accurately. Improvements such as a new boiler, additional insulation, or upgraded windows could increase your rating – potentially moving you from a D to a C, which may benefit you when selling.
Some mortgage lenders now offer better rates or incentives based on a property’s EPC rating.
We carry out the full assessment, create the certificate, and lodge it on the official register on your behalf.

EPCs for Rental Properties
Landlords must have a valid EPC before advertising a rental property.
Current regulations require rental properties to have a minimum rating of Band E (39–54).
Government proposals indicate that new tenancies may need to meet Band C (69–80) by 2028, with all existing tenancies expected to follow by 2030.
We provide the certificate and can clearly explain how the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards may affect your property.

Energy Improvement Advice
If you’re looking to increase your EPC rating, we offer practical, honest guidance. Recommendations may include insulation upgrades, heating system improvements, glazing options, or simple, low-cost changes that can make a measurable difference.
(Please note: replacing double glazing with newer double glazing has a limited impact on EPC ratings unless upgrading from single glazing.)

EPC FAQs
What does an Energy Performance Certificate Assessment involve?
An Energy Performance Assessment will take on average about an hour – this is the data collection part of producing an EPC.
During the Energy Performance Assessment, the Domestic Energy Assessor will collect the following data at the property
- The year the property was built
- Make and model of the boiler and the type of flue, and the fuel used
- Type of heating system used and controls
- Walls and roof construction
- Signs of retrofit cavity wall insulation/solid wall insulation
- Type of double-glazed windows and when installed
- Sizes of all windows
- Number of open fireplaces
- Number of low-energy light bulbs
- Depth of loft insulation
- Measure the thickness of the hot water cylinder jacket or foam – if present
- Note the number of habitable rooms that are heated
- Measure the internal or external areas of the home
- Measure ceiling heights
- Energy-saving “green” devices (such as solar panels)
- 40+ photographs
Then at the desk
- All calculations
- Produce a floor plan
- The collected data is inputted into Government-approved software to produce the Energy Performance Assessment.

What is an EPC?
EPC is short for Energy Performance Certificate. An Energy Performance Certificate is a 4-page document produced after an Energy Performance Assessment has been carried out on a property by a fully qualified Domestic Energy Assessor (DEA).
An Energy Performance Certificate is a statutory document.
The EPC will show the Energy Performance rating of the property. The rating will be between 1 and 100.
1 is the least energy efficient, and 100 is the most energy efficient (some of the houses being built today are ultra energy efficient and score 100+)

What do the Bands in an EPC mean?
The rating “Bands” in an EPC are as follows
92 -100 = A
81 – 91 = B
69 – 80 = C
55 – 68 = D
39 – 54 = E
21 – 38 = F
1 – 20 = G
1 is the least energy efficient, and 100 is the most energy efficient (some of the houses being built today are ultra energy efficient and score 100+)
The EPC will be lodged on the Energy Performance Certificate Register, which is a searchable public register that can be found here.
The EPC also shows details about each element of the property, such as Walls, Loft, Heating System and Windows etc, and it will also list any recommended improvements to the property that would increase the property’s energy efficiency.

Do I need to provide documents?
While not mandatory, any certificates or evidence relating to insulation, window upgrades, boiler installations, or renewable systems (such as solar panels) will help ensure the EPC is as accurate and up to date as possible.
Call us today: 07960 799681 or 08008 101060
Do you check the electrics or gas safety?
No — EPCs are about energy efficiency, not safety. We won’t test gas, electrics or appliances, and we don’t do any intrusive inspections such as drilling walls.

Is an EPC required for all properties?
Most properties that are sold or rented are legally required to have a valid (less than 10-year-old) EPC.
Some exceptions exist, such as certain listed buildings or non-permanent structures. If you are unsure, our professional guidance will be provided.
