What an EPC costs in Castle Bromwich
Pricing follows property size, not postcode, so a three-bedroom house in Castle Bromwich costs the same as a three-bedroom house anywhere else in Solihull. Every figure includes lodging the certificate to the national register:
| Property size | Typical EPC price | Turnaround |
|---|---|---|
| 1 bedroom | £60 | Next-day available |
| 2–3 bedrooms | £80 | Next-day available |
| 4–5 bedrooms | £100 | Next-day available |
| 6+ bedrooms | On request | Next-day available |
Booking, step by step
- Give us the basics. The address, the property type and the bedroom count are enough to price it exactly.
- Select a morning or afternoon window. The precise appointment is confirmed by phone the previous day.
- Provide access. Every room matters, and so does the loft — it does not have to be the owner who lets us in.
- Get the certificate. We lodge it to the national register and email it to you, usually the same or next day.
What the assessor looks at in a Castle Bromwich property
Castle Bromwich is characterised by inter-war garden-suburb semis and 1950s estate housing — the streets around Castle Bromwich Hall Gardens, and out through Hurst Green, Timberley, Bradford Road and Water Orton. On cavity-built inter-war stock, the assessor is mainly recording unfilled cavity walls, thin or compressed loft insulation, and original suspended timber floors that lose heat from below.
These homes are nearly always on gas, which the calculation treats kindly. The question is whether the boiler is a modern condensing unit and whether anything is actually controlling it.
The visit takes 30 to 60 minutes for a typical Castle Bromwich home. Nothing is invasive — but the more evidence you can produce, the better your rating is likely to be.
How to prepare
- Find any cavity-wall or loft-insulation certificates
- Unlock any outbuildings, garages or annexes that form part of the property
- Have the boiler make, model and service record to hand
- Dig out building-control paperwork for any extension
- Note the age of the windows and whether the units are sealed double glazing
- Clear access to the loft hatch — an assessor who cannot see the insulation must assume the worst
