Why it matters here

What you need, and why to use us.

01

Ready when your deal is

You cannot complete a sale or letting without a valid EPC. We survey and lodge fast, at a fixed price agreed up front, so it is in hand when the deal needs it, not holding things up.

02

Industrial and logistics, done right

Warehouses, trade counters and distribution units need an EPC and meet MEES just as offices do. Our engineers handle the plant and services properly, so the rating is accurate.

03

Mills and warehouses converted to commercial use

Manchester’s Victorian industrial heritage is now offices, studios and leisure. These conversions are exactly the complex buildings we specialise in.

Every commercial building type

Whatever you own, we survey it.

From a single floor to a whole estate, Level 3 through Level 5, including the complex and heritage buildings other assessors turn down.

Offices

From single floors and serviced suites to whole buildings and business-park units. Level 3 to Level 5.

Retail & high street

Shops, units and parades in the centre and suburbs, turned around fast to keep lettings moving.

Restaurants & hospitality

Air-conditioning, kitchens and extract handled properly on food-and-beverage premises.

Industrial & warehouse

Trade counters, light industrial and logistics units across the local estates.

Mixed-use

The commercial elements of mixed-use schemes, split correctly.

Listed & heritage

Period and listed commercial buildings, surveyed by genuine specialists.

The cost of getting it wrong

Non-compliance is an expensive risk.

MEES penalties are based on rateable value, so in a high-value market the numbers are near the top of the scale. It is a risk that is simple, and cheap, to close.

Common questions

Commercial EPCs in Manchester, in plain English.

Do you cover all of Greater Manchester?

Yes, the whole conurbation, from the city centre, Spinningfields and MediaCityUK to Trafford Park, Stockport, Altrincham and the northern boroughs. Give us the postcode and we’ll confirm the earliest survey slot.

Can you survey a converted mill or warehouse?

Yes, and it is one of our strengths. Manchester’s converted Victorian mills and warehouses are complex buildings that trip up generic assessors; we handle their fabric and services properly so the rating is right and defensible.

How fast can you turn one around in Manchester?

For most straightforward buildings we can book a survey within days and lodge shortly after. Tell us your deadline in the quote form and we’ll prioritise the survey to keep your transaction moving.

How much does a commercial EPC cost in Manchester?

It is priced on building type and floor area, not location, so you get the same fixed price as anywhere else. Tell us the building and size and we’ll send a clear price and the earliest slot.

EPC Roadmap service

Beyond the certificate: a roadmap to a better rating.

A certificate tells you where you stand today. The EPC Roadmap, our improvement service from Engineered Efficiency, maps the most cost-effective path to a higher rating and keeps you ahead of every tightening of MEES.
