A spokesperson for the Department for Communities and Local Government says: “There are still opportunities for home inspectors. As it is, only fully qualified inspectors can carry out the Energy Performance Certificate, as this is the only qualification on offer. With this diploma home inspectors could carry out the energy performance certificate and the Home Condition Report. The new qualification will provide the training to carry out just the EPC”
This has come as a major blow to those already qualified or still training to be Home Inspectors, the qualification needed to produce the Energy Performance Certificate is already included in the
Home Inspector training but many feel the new Energy Inspectors will be able to undercut prices, as the time it takes to train and the costs are likely to be significantly higher for them.
But yet i see training for the energy performance certificate qualifacation, whats going on here can i do the energy performance inspection or not anyone know?
