Be Pro-active. Get rewarded.

There are around 2,000,000 commercial buildings in the UK.

Over 80% of these buildings are still below an EPC B.

This means there are over 1,600,000 commercial buildings in the UK that have not yet instructed the required upgrade works. With less than 5 years left to the 2030 EPC B deadline, major build cost inflation is forecast as demand outstrips supply.

We advise our clients to take a pro-active approach, and aim to achieve compliance at the earliest sensible opportunity. This will both avoid the inevitable build cost inflation, but also allow the commercial benefits, such as improved rents, to be experienced sooner rather than later.

Our tailored action plans are designed to ensure compliance whilst minimising costs. We specifically target the lowest cost and least disruptive solutions to ensure tenants are kept happy.

Key benefits include:
1. Improved rents and increased capital value.
2. Removal of the risk of obsolescence and fines for non-compliance.
3. Beating cost inflation & removing the uncertainty of upgrade costs.
4. Reduced running costs and service charges.
5. Reduced carbon emissions.
6. Improved liquidity.
