About Us – The Dumfries EPC Wizards!
Welcome to EPCdumfres.com, your gateway to energy efficiency in Dumfries and beyond! We're the brainchild of Dr. John Paul Hood, who set sail on this noble quest on May 15, 2015. Our mission: to deliver affordable Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) while staying buddy-buddy with the Acts of Parliament that keep the UK's energy efficiency ship afloat. EPCs are kind of a big deal, shaping the nation's energy policy like Dumfries shapes its famous pies!
Back in the day, EPCs were born thanks to the European Union's Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD). In the UK, they became law through a series of Acts of Parliament, like the Energy Performance of Buildings (Scotland) Regulations 2008 and their pals. These regulations are our bedtime reading.
Our fearless leader, Dr. John Paul Hood, born on December 2, 1982, boasts the fanciest accreditations from the likes of Elmhurst, Stroma, and the NHER EPC scheme. These badges of honor allow him to work his EPC magic across Scotland, England, Wales, and even the charming Northern Ireland, all while following the rules of those Acts of Parliament we mentioned earlier.
In the UK, an Energy Performance Certificate is the must-have accessory for every property looking to sell, rent, or show off its construction prowess. These certificates spill the beans on a property's energy efficiency, revealing its current rating and where it could level up. Plus, they throw in some juicy tips to shrink carbon footprints and pocket-friendly utility bills. It's like Dumfries haggis – practical and efficient!
At EPCdumfres.com, we wear our kilts (figuratively, of course) with pride and commit to making EPC services light on the purse. We're on a mission to help property owners in Dumfries and beyond meet their legal duties while guiding them towards greener, more energy-efficient pastures.
