What is different when you are a landlord?
Rented homes in England and Wales must meet a minimum EPC rating to be let, and the government has confirmed it will rise to band C, with a deadline of October 2030. Loft insulation alone rarely moves a whole band, but it is one of the first measures an assessor looks for. More about loft insulation for a rented home.

Questions about loft insulation for a rented home in Hastings
How do I pay for work in Hastings?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
Is loft work in Hastings different from anywhere else?
The method is the same, but older terraces, cottages and newer estates each have their own quirks: lath ceilings, low pitches or trussed roofs. We plan for the loft we find.
Do you charge extra to travel to Hastings?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Hastings. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
What EPC rating do rented homes need?
In England and Wales the current minimum is E, and the government has confirmed a move to C with a deadline of October 2030. Check the current rules on GOV.UK for your property.
Will loft insulation improve my EPC rating?
It usually adds points, and from no insulation it can be significant. Whether it moves a whole band depends on the rest of the property.
