Understanding New Build EPCs (SAP Calculations)

A Standard Assessment Procedure (SAP) calculation is the required method by the UK government for assessing and comparing the energy and environmental performance of new homes. It is a crucial step to ensure that a new dwelling complies with the energy efficiency requirements of the national building regulations. This is often referred to as a New Build SAP EPC.

SAP calculations result in an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) for the new build. This certificate is legally required before a new home can be marketed, sold, or rented. The process involves an 'As Designed' stage and an 'As Built' stage to ensure the final construction matches the energy-efficient design. We provide expert SAP calculations in Manchester and across the UK.

When is a SAP EPC Required?
  • Newly Constructed Dwellings: All new homes require a SAP calculation and a resulting EPC.
  • Conversions: Properties converted into a dwelling (e.g., a barn conversion) need a SAP EPC.
  • Extensions with Large Glazing: Extensions where the glazed area is over 25% of the floor area often require SAP calculations.
