Brief Information for Bradford Property Owners, Landlords & Estate Agents
Are you renting or selling your house in Bradford now or in the near future? By law, an Energy Performance Certificate or EPC certificate is required whenever a building is constructed, sold or rented, unless a valid certificate is already in place. An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) provides an independent assessment of a property’s energy efficiency. The rating is shown on a scale from A to G, with A being the most efficient in terms of energy use, fuel costs, and carbon dioxide emissions.
An EPC survey can only be carried out by a qualified EPC assessor who will physically inspect the property, gather data and then generate the EPC report before uploading it onto the government portal. The EPC certificate not only shows the current energy efficiency of the property but also provides recommendations for improvements to reduce energy costs and environmental impact. This information can then be used by potential future homeowners, tenants or new house buyers to determine how much it will cost to light and heat the property.
The Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES) requires all rented properties to get an EPC rating of E or above. If the EPC assessment or rating gets an F or G, the landlord must make energy efficiency improvements to the property or face prosecution or fines of up to £5000. Recently, Bradford Council have started issuing warning letters to landlords in their drive to ensure properties in Bradford meet current EPC standards and regulations. If your Bradford property has an EPC rating below an E, you are not legally allowed to rent the property unless you have an exemption. For full details about EPC Bradford exemptions, please visit the Bradford Council EPC exemptions section.
On the other hand, if you are selling your property in Bradford, there is no minimum EPC requirement for the sale to go through, even an EPC rating of F or G will suffice. Note: the sale cannot legally be completed by the solicitors without a valid EPC registered against the property on the official EPC register.
An EPC is currently valid for 10 years in England. However, new legislation in Scotland will require EPCs to be renewed every 5 years from 2026 to ensure stronger energy efficiency standards.
It is widely anticipated that England may follow this approach, with discussions suggesting that the minimum EPC rating could also increase to a C in the near future. Property owners in Bradford are therefore encouraged to stay ahead of these potential changes by ensuring their EPC Bradford rating is up to date and compliant.
See our Step-by-step EPC Guide page which provides a full breakdown of what an EPC assessor will be doing during the EPC inspection. Also, check out our dedicated FAQ section for all common questions and answers regarding EPCs.
Check to see if your property in Bradford already has an EPC registered
If your property has a valid EPC already registered, it can be found by checking the official EPC Register. Make sure you check this as we don't want you to unnecessarily pay for a new EPC if there is already one in place.

Energy Efficiency Advice to Improve Your Potential EPC in Bradford
QUICK TIP: Before I request an EPC assessment for my house, what is the easiest way to ensure that it does get a minimum energy rating of 'E' ?
This is a common question we get asked. There are many ways to improve the energy efficiency rating of your property.
For an average 3 bedroom house built before the 1950's, having a modern condensing boiler, double-glazed windows and adequate loft insulation (250mm+) all have a strong impact on the EPC rating. Ensuring the house has LED bulbs throughout, having radiator TRVs and a room thermostat can also have a positive impact. This should normally ensure an EPC rating of D or at worst case E.
In order to aim for a 'C' rating, the walls most additionally have adequate insulation present either internally, externally or via filled insulation. There are of course other ways of achieving a C ie via Heat Pumps or Solar Panels. The final rating can only be determined by undertaking a thorough EPC survey but the above tips are a rough guide.
Most terraced properties in Bradford & Halifax were commonly built between pre -1900 to 1920 using Yorkshire sandstone while semi-detached houses (1930 onwards) were built using cavity walls. Solid brick walls are more often found in neighbouring cities like Leeds and uncommon in Bradford. The type of wall is usually determined by examining the features and measuring the thickness of the wall. Sandstone walls are normally 440mm+ thick whilst cavity walls can range from 320mm to 380mm thickness. A cavity wall does not necessarily guarantee that insulation is present within it.
