Energy Performance Certificates in Liskeard
Liskeard is an old Cornish market town and former stannary town, between Bodmin Moor to the north and Looe on the coast. The town itself has plenty of Victorian terraces and villas, and beyond it the homes get more rural very quickly.
Out in the villages, a lot of homes aren’t on mains gas. They’re heated by oil, LPG, electric storage heaters or solid fuel, and the fuel makes a real difference to an EPC because the rating is based on running costs. Two identical houses can score quite differently just because one burns gas and the other runs on electric heaters.
I record the main heating system, the fuel, any secondary heating such as a wood burner, and how the hot water is heated. The report then shows which changes would help most for that fuel, so you’re not handed advice that only suits a gas-heated house.
What I record on a Liskeard EPC
Every EPC is £75 and comes with the free epIMS report. This is what I look at on the day.
Farmhouses and older builds
Thick walls, low ceilings, several extensions from different decades. I measure each part of the house separately, so the certificate matches the building.
Secondary heating
A wood burner or open fire in the lounge counts as secondary heating, and I note it along with the main system.
Rentals in and around town
Most lets need band E or above. Where a rural rental falls short, the report shows what would lift it for that type of heating.
Liskeard EPC questions
Something else? Ring me on 07914 944910.
My house runs on oil. Will that affect the EPC?
Yes, the fuel is part of the rating, because the score is based on running costs. The report suggests improvements that suit how your home is actually heated.
Do you cover Looe and the villages around Liskeard?
Yes. Looe, Menheniot, Dobwalls, St Cleer and Pensilva are all covered, at the same £75.
I have electric storage heaters. Is a low rating normal?
Electric heating often scores lower because of the cost of the electricity. Better insulation and newer, well controlled heaters can make a difference, and the certificate lists them.
