Contact us with details of your property and we can discuss the cost of arranging your Commercial EPC.
Is a Commercial EPC a Legal Requirement?
A commercial EPC is required for many non-domestic properties when they are constructed, sold or rented, although exemptions can apply to certain buildings and circumstances.
Property owners, landlords and developers may therefore need a valid Commercial EPC before completing a property transaction or making a building available to prospective tenants or buyers.
The requirements can depend on the building and circumstances, so it is important to establish whether an EPC is required for your particular property.
If you are unsure whether your commercial property requires an EPC, contact us with the property details.
When do you Need a Commercial EPC?
You may need a commercial EPC when:
- Selling a commercial property
- Renting out a commercial property
- Constructing a new non-domestic building
- Marketing certain commercial properties for sale or rent
- Making certain changes to a commercial building
Commercial landlords, property owners, developers and agents commonly arrange EPC assessments as part of a sale, letting or property development.
If you already have a commercial EPC, it is worth checking whether the existing certificate remains valid before arranging another assessment.
What does a Commercial EPC Assessment Include?
A commercial EPC assessment in Baillieston involves inspecting the property and gathering the information required to calculate its energy performance.
The EPC assessment may consider:
- Property dimensions
- Building layout
- Construction materials
- Walls
- Roof
- Floors
- Windows and glazing
- Insulation
- Heating systems
- Cooling systems
- Ventilation
- Hot water
- Lighting
The information collected during the assessment is entered into approved energy assessment software to calculate the building’s energy performance.
An Energy Performance Certificate is then produced showing the property’s rating and recommendations for potential energy efficiency improvements.

What do Commercial EPC Ratings Mean?
Commercial EPC ratings range from A to G and indicate the calculated energy performance of a non-domestic building.
The EPC ratings are:
- A – Highest energy performance
- B – Very good energy performance
- C – Good energy performance
- D – Moderate energy performance
- E – Lower energy performance
- F – Poor energy performance
- G – Lowest energy performance
The certificate provides the property’s current rating together with information about potential improvements.
A property’s EPC rating can be particularly important for landlords because separate minimum energy efficiency requirements can affect whether certain commercial properties can legally be let.
How does a Commercial EPC Assessment Work?
Arranging a commercial EPC in Glasgow normally involves an on-site assessment followed by energy modelling and production of the certificate.
The process generally includes:
- Book the assessment: Provide details of the commercial property and arrange a suitable assessment date.
- Property inspection: An accredited assessor visits the property and records the information required for the assessment.
- Building assessment: Construction, heating, cooling, ventilation, lighting and other relevant elements are assessed.
- Energy modelling: The information is entered into approved software to calculate the property’s energy performance.
- EPC rating: The property receives an energy rating from A to G.
- Certificate issued: The completed Commercial EPC is produced with the property’s rating and recommendations.
The complexity of the assessment will depend on the size and type of commercial building.
How Long does a Commercial EPC Assessment Take?
A commercial EPC assessment in Glasgow can take from a few hours for a smaller property to considerably longer for a large or complex commercial building.
The timescale can depend on:
- Property size
- Building layout
- Number of rooms or areas
- Complexity of building services
- Heating and cooling systems
- Information available to the assessor
- Access to different parts of the property
The EPC itself is produced after the required property information has been collected and assessed.
We can provide a better indication of the likely timescale once we know more about your property.
How Long is a Commercial EPC Valid?
A commercial EPC is normally valid for 10 years.
If a valid EPC already exists for the property, another assessment may not be required until the existing certificate expires, although there may be circumstances where a property owner chooses or needs to obtain a new assessment.
If you are unsure whether your property already has a valid EPC, this can be checked before arranging another assessment.
Commercial EPCs for Landlords
We provide commercial EPC assessments for landlords in Baillieston who are preparing to rent or re-let non-domestic properties.
An EPC provides prospective tenants with information about the energy performance of the building and may be required before the property can be marketed or let.
Commercial landlords should also consider the EPC rating alongside any Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards that apply to the property.
If you are preparing a commercial property for letting, contact us to arrange an EPC assessment.
Commercial EPCs for Property Sales
We provide commercial EPC assessments for commercial property owners preparing buildings for sale.
A valid EPC may be required when a commercial property is marketed and provides prospective buyers with information about the building’s energy performance.
If the property does not already have a valid certificate, we can arrange an assessment and produce the required Commercial EPC.

Frequently Asked Questions
When is a Commercial EPC Not Required?
Certain buildings and circumstances may be exempt from commercial EPC requirements.
Whether an exemption applies depends on the property and how it is used. If you believe your building may be exempt, the specific circumstances should be checked against current EPC requirements before relying on an exemption.
Can I Sell a Commercial Property Without an EPC?
A valid EPC is generally required when a commercial property is marketed for sale unless the property qualifies for an exemption.
If your property does not currently have a valid EPC, an assessment may therefore need to be arranged before or during the marketing process.
Can I Rent Out a Commercial Property Without an EPC?
Commercial properties being rented will generally require a valid EPC unless an exemption applies.
Landlords may also need to consider Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards in addition to simply having a valid Energy Performance Certificate.
How Quickly can I get a Commercial EPC?
The time required will depend on assessor availability and the size and complexity of the property.
Smaller commercial buildings can generally be assessed more quickly than large properties with complex heating, cooling and ventilation systems.
Contact us with your required timescale and property details so we can discuss availability.
Who can Carry Out a Commercial EPC?
A commercial EPC must be produced by an appropriately accredited non-domestic energy assessor.
The level of assessor required can depend on the type and complexity of the commercial building being assessed.
What Information is Included in a Commercial EPC?
A commercial EPC includes the property’s energy performance rating from A to G and information relating to the calculated energy performance of the building.
It also includes recommendations for potential improvements to the property’s energy efficiency.
What Happens if my Commercial EPC Rating is Low?
A low commercial EPC rating indicates that the building has relatively poor calculated energy performance.
The EPC recommendations can identify potential measures that may improve the building’s rating.
Commercial landlords should also establish whether the property’s rating meets any minimum energy efficiency requirements that apply before letting the building.
