Common Questions

What is a BER certificate?
A BER (Building Energy Rating) rates your home's energy efficiency from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient). It is legally required in Ireland when selling or renting any property. The certificate includes an advisory report explaining what affects your BER rating and recommending upgrades to improve it, helping you reduce energy bills and increase property value.
Do I need a BER certificate?
Yes, if you're selling, renting or letting a property in Ireland. It's also required for SEAI grants, green mortgages, and all new builds before first occupation.
How much does a BER certificate cost?
The cost depends on the size, type and location of your property. Call 087 777 4155 for a free quote tailored to your property.
How long does the assessment take?
The on-site survey takes 30 to 60 minutes. Your certificate and advisory report are then emailed to you with fast turnaround.
How long is a BER certificate valid?
Up to 10 years, unless you make changes that affect energy performance such as new insulation, windows, heating or solar panels. A BER rating upgrade from these improvements means you will need a new assessment, which should show a better rating and lower energy costs.
What do I need to prepare?
Very little. We need access to all rooms, the attic, hot press and any garages. It helps to have your electricity bill handy for the MPRN number printed on it. Documentation for any insulation, window or heating upgrades is useful as these directly affect your BER rating, but not essential.
Can you help with SEAI grant applications?
Yes. We complete the before-works and after-works BER assessments required for all SEAI grants, and can advise on the most cost-effective upgrades to maximise your eligibility and improve your BER rating.
How quickly can I get an appointment?
We offer flexible appointments 7 days a week, including evenings and weekends. Call Justin on 087 777 4155 to check availability.
