Local knowledge

Broadstairs, a seaside town of bays and terraces.

Broadstairs wraps around Viking Bay and its little harbour, with sandy bays stretching to Botany Bay, Kingsgate and North Foreland. Its streets are largely Victorian and Edwardian, with St Peter’s village inland.

Split rooflines, rooms in the roof and exposed clifftop homes make careful recording essential here.

Broadstairs’s homes

What we see in Broadstairs, and what it means for your rating.

Victorian terraces

Solid brick walls and sash windows; loft insulation, controls and draught-proofing come first.

Split rooflines

Part loft, part sloping ceiling – each part assessed separately, so accurate recording matters.

Kingsgate clifftop homes

Larger, exposed homes with extensions and later upgrades to record properly.

St Peter’s homes

Newer homes usually rate well with cavity walls and efficient heating.

Questions

EPCs in Broadstairs, answered.

How quickly can you visit in Broadstairs?

We call back within minutes during office hours to arrange a visit at a time that suits you, and we lodge your EPC on the register the same day as the assessment.

Which areas around Broadstairs do you cover?

Broadstairs, St Peter’s, Kingsgate, North Foreland, Dumpton, Reading Street, Westwood and the rest of Thanet.

My house has a loft conversion. Does that affect the EPC?

Yes. Rooms in the roof are assessed on their own construction and insulation, so we measure and record them carefully – with evidence of age and insulation if you have it.

How long does an EPC last?

Ten years. If you have made improvements since your last EPC, a new assessment can show a better rating. Our guide to improving your EPC explains what makes a difference.

Can you assess several lets in one day?

Yes. We can assess several properties on the same day and lodge each EPC the same day as its visit, which suits landlords and letting agents.

How can I check my current EPC rating?

Use our free Check your EPC tool. Type your postcode to see your home’s current rating, when the certificate expires and whether a new assessment could help.
