  • The assessment itself takes 30 to 60 minutes for a typical home.

Booking, step by step

  1. Tell us the property. Address, type and number of bedrooms — that is all we need for a fixed price.
  2. Choose AM, PM or anytime. No rigid time slots to guess at. We confirm the exact time the day before.
  3. Let the assessor in. Someone needs to provide access to every room, including the loft hatch.
  4. Receive and file it. The certificate is lodged nationally and emailed across, normally within 24 hours.

What the assessor looks at in a Spon End property

Spon End is characterised by timber-framed survivors and Victorian terraces, much of it in a conservation area — the streets around the Spon Street medieval buildings and the city wall, and out through Spon Street, Upper Spon Street, Butts Road and Holyhead Road. On pre-cavity brick and stone housing, the assessor is mainly recording nine-inch solid brickwork, single glazing or thin secondary glazing, and a great deal of air leakage around original joinery.

Some of this stock is heated by oil, LPG or electric panels. The calculation penalises all three heavily, so the heating system often matters more than the walls.

The visit takes 30 to 60 minutes for a typical Spon End home. Nothing is invasive — but the more evidence you can produce, the better your rating is likely to be.

How to prepare

  • Clear access to the loft hatch — an assessor who cannot see the insulation must assume the worst
  • Unlock any outbuildings, garages or annexes that form part of the property
  • Have the boiler make, model and service record to hand
  • Find any cavity-wall or loft-insulation certificates
  • Dig out building-control paperwork for any extension
  • Note the age of the windows and whether the units are sealed double glazing
