Manchester
Manchester has one of the largest private rented sectors in the country, and much of it is exactly the housing the EPC C by 2030 rule targets — Victorian terraces and converted flats that currently rate D or below.
EPC C by 2030 for Manchester landlords
From 2030 a rented home in Manchester will need to reach EPC band C, and much of the borough's stock is below that today. We assess, plan, fund and install the measures that close the gap, delivered by our accredited partner LAMTANS Engineering Ltd.
The housing in Manchester
From the dense red-brick terraces of Longsight, Levenshulme, Moss Side and Gorton to the student HMOs of Fallowfield, Rusholme and Withington and the period semis of Didsbury and Chorlton, most of Manchester's rental stock is solid-wall or early-cavity and needs a fabric-first plan. City-centre apartments bring their own glazing and heating questions.
What we do across Manchester
One team takes a Manchester property from survey to compliant home: a fresh EPC and a fabric-first plan, insulation for walls, lofts and floors, heating and controls, solar and ventilation, plus the trades and refurbishment a let property needs. Explore the full list of services.
Grants for Manchester landlords
Manchester is covered by the Greater Manchester Warm Homes: Local Grant and, while it lasts, ECO4, with the Boiler Upgrade Scheme for heat pumps. Grant money counts towards the £10,000 cost cap, and the Greater Manchester grant requires Good Landlord Charter registration, which we help with. See the grants page.
How it works
We survey and lodge a fresh EPC, map the gap to C, and give you a fixed-price plan with every grant you qualify for. Our accredited partner installs the measures to PAS 2030/2035 and MCS standards, and you get a post-works EPC and a compliance file you keep.
Common questions
Do you cover all of Manchester?
Yes — we work across the whole of Manchester and the neighbouring Greater Manchester boroughs, so a portfolio spread across the area is handled by one team.
What does the 2030 rule mean for my Manchester rental?
The sector is working to a minimum EPC of C, with 2030 the deadline for all tenancies (and an earlier date proposed for new tenancies). Below C, letting the property will be restricted, so it pays to plan now.
Are there grants for Manchester landlords?
Yes — Manchester is covered by the Greater Manchester Warm Homes: Local Grant and, while it runs, ECO4, plus the Boiler Upgrade Scheme for heat pumps. We check every route before you spend.
