With nearly 2 decades of experience, our family-owned business delivers reliable energy assessment services to help clients confidently meet compliance requirements. Our goal is to simplify the assessment process and optimise energy performance for comfortable, sustainable homes.
Understanding Energy Ratings
A house energy rating assesses a home’s heating and cooling needs on a scale of 0 to 10 stars, with higher ratings indicating better energy efficiency. Key factors include orientation, materials, insulation, and climate zone. New homes and extensions must meet minimum energy efficiency standards for council approval, and our energy rating reports ensure compliance with current regulations.
