What it is

What every EPC includes, and what the plan adds

Your standard EPC already includes its software-generated recommendation report, where applicable. The optional Improvement Plan adds Abdul's interpretation of the assessment and priorities for your property.

Every EPCIncluded

The recommendations

Standard recommendations come from the assessment software, on the certificate itself.

  • Current energy efficiency rating, and the potential rating if the recommended improvements are made
  • Specific recommendations to improve efficiency
  • Estimated cost and savings for each recommendation

Improvement Plan+£35

What the plan adds

  1. 1A personalised written plan. Abdul explains what is holding the rating back and which improvements to consider first, based on the property assessed.
  2. 2The full Elmhurst Energy Report. Supporting assessment evidence, including modelled energy use and costs. These estimates use standard occupancy assumptions, not your household bills.
  3. 3Priorities and practical limitations. What to investigate first, how measures relate to each other, and where installer or other specialist advice is needed before proceeding.

Abdul's additional plan puts the recommendations in context for your property and explains the priorities in writing. It costs £35 on top of your EPC and is already included in an EPC Pre-Assessment.

In the plan

What it covers

Standard recommendations are included either way

A recommendation report may be omitted where there is no reasonable potential for improvement; any legitimate omission follows assessment rules, not your add-on choice. The plan is not a PAS 2035 retrofit assessment or an installation design. Costs and savings are estimates, not quotes or guarantees. No particular rating or improvement is guaranteed.

Before you act on the plan

  • It is guidance based on what was recorded at the visit. It is not a survey of the structure or condition of the building, an installation design or a PAS 2035 retrofit assessment.
  • Costs, savings and ratings are estimates from the approved software and typical figures. They are not quotes, and real results depend on the installer, the materials and how the home is used.
  • No particular rating, band, grant, funding or MEES exemption is guaranteed. A later EPC is a new assessment of the property as it is then.
  • Get quotes and advice from qualified installers before any work, and check planning permission, listed building consent and Building Regulations where they apply.
  • Which works to do is your decision. We are not responsible for installers’ work, products, prices or results.

Nothing here limits your statutory rights. Our liability is set out in our terms.

Written for your property

  • What is holding the rating back, based on the assessment data
  • Indicative installation costs and modelled savings, with their limitations
  • Estimated energy-cost distribution for heating, hot water and lighting under standard occupancy assumptions
  • Which improvements to consider first and which need further investigation
  • How the EPC recommendations relate to current MEES requirements, where applicable
  • What is realistic for the property type: solid wall, flat, period conversion
  • Which measures may be unsuitable or need specialist advice, and why

Who it helps

Most useful if you're in one of these positions

Landlords facing MEES

For rentals covered by MEES, the current minimum is E unless a valid exemption is registered. The confirmed higher standard for 1 October 2030 still needs legislation. The plan helps you consider property-specific options.

Owners planning works

Considering insulation, heating or glazing work? A personalised plan helps you consider priorities before seeking installation advice and quotes.

Buyers and sellers

Understand the assessed property and possible improvements before making decisions about a sale or purchase.

Not sure whether it's worth it? Ask us in your enquiry. Tell us what you want to understand and we can explain whether the plan fits that need.

Common questions

Improvement Plan questions

Not covered here? Call 07492 575 396 or WhatsApp us, Monday–Sunday, 8am–8pm.

Does my EPC include improvement recommendations?

Yes. Your standard EPC includes its software-generated recommendation report at no extra charge, unless there is no reasonable potential for improvements. The optional £35 EPC Improvement Plan adds Abdul's personalised interpretation and priorities, supported by the full Elmhurst Energy Report. It explains what is holding the rating back and which improvements to consider first. It does not guarantee a rating or savings.

When do I decide whether to add it?

Tick the box on the enquiry form, or mention it when you call. You can also decide on the day, before we lodge.

Will the plan get my home to a particular band?

No particular rating or improvement is guaranteed. Costs and savings are estimates, not quotes or guarantees. The plan is not a PAS 2035 retrofit assessment or an installation design.

Is it included in a Pre-Assessment?

Yes. The written improvement plan is already included in the price of an EPC Pre-Assessment, so there is nothing to add.
