About
Russell Home Energy is a family run business and fully accredited by Elmhurst, Stroma and ECMK providing energy performance certificate services together with floorplans and Legionella assessments in and around Cambridge and Ely, and the Fenland and East Cambridgeshire area. My price for a domestic EPC starts from £69.00. Please call if you have any questions or to make an appointment.
An Energy Performance Certificate, commonly referred to as an EPC, is required whenever a property is being sold or rented out. If you are selling or renting out a property in or around Ely you should order your EPC for potential buyers or tenants before you market the property. The information on the EPC will help owners and occupiers make their property more energy efficient and allow potential buyers and tenants to compare the energy performance of different properties.
I will provide your EPC at fair fixed price with no 'extra' costs on the day. The price I quote is the price you will pay. I provide a personal and professional EPC service. I look forward to providing your EPC so please call now to book an appointment.

FAQs
Why Use Russell Home Energy. we have provided thousands of Energy Performance Cerificates for both sales and rental properties throughout the area. I am locally based which also means that no extra travel costs are added to the price of your epc.
EPC Prices in Fenland & East Cambridgeshire. There are lots of factors which can affect the cost of your epc. As an example, my fees start at £65.
Are You Using A Local EPC Provider ? If the surveyor has to travel a long way to Ely then it is likely the price you pay will be higher than it will be if you use our Local EPC Service.
Are you using a panel ? A panel is a service which advertises energy performance certificates but does not actually provide the EPC themselves. They are usually a booking service which adds a middle man fee to the price you pay to cover their costs.
TOP TIPS
Improve your energy rating with these simple changes!
Try and make sure as many of your fixed light fittings as possible have low energy lamps fitted. This will improve the epc rating.
If you have a hot water tank, make sure there is plenty of insulation around it. Good insulation can make a significant difference to the epc rating.
Loft insulation. If I cannot see the loft is insulated because either I cannot gain loft access or because the loft is boarded over we have to report insulation as 'unknown' which could have a negative effect on the epc rating. Please have any paperwork available to prove loft insulation is fitted.
Cavity wall insulation can have a substantial impact on the epc rating. If you have cavity wall insulation which is not visible due to the property having been rendered after installation this can lower the epc rating as we have to assume there is none. Please make sure you have the paperwork available if your cavity walls have been insulated.
If your double glazed windows were fitted after 2002 and the date is not visible in the units, please have paperwork available to show the installation date. This can have a positive effect on the EPC.
Boiler information: I will try to establish the exact make and model of the gas or oil heating boiler. Where this is possible, the exact efficiency of the boiler can be established. This is likely to give a higher epc score than the software default setting for the type of boiler. Establishing the boiler details from visual inspection can be difficult, so please have any information manuals or service history available.
