Four years sounds like plenty of time, until you line energy work up with repairs, void periods and tenancy dates. 🏡
The government's stated policy is that privately rented homes should meet a higher energy standard, broadly equivalent to EPC C, for all tenancies by 1 October 2030. For Long Ashton landlords, September 2026 is a practical point to check the evidence for each property and plan work that suits the building.
CJ Hole Long Ashton's new guide covers:
✔ What the 2030 standard currently means, and which parts still need parliamentary approval
✔ How to read EPC recommendations in the context of your building
✔ A sensible order for insulation, heating and hot water improvements
✔ The proposed £10,000 cost cap and current funding options
✔ A step-by-step September checklist for BS41 landlords
Whether you let an older village home, an established terrace or a newer build, the right plan starts with your property's own record, not a generic estimate.
Read the full guide on the CJ Hole website, or book a rental valuation with the Long Ashton team to talk through your plans.
