The Code for Sustainable Homes is part of the Government’s programme to improve the sustainability of new dwellings and is the standard by which new homes in England, Wales and Northern Ireland are now being judged for their green credentials.
Compliance
Assessments are carried out in two phases:
An initial assessment and interim certification is carried out at the design stage. This is based on detailed documentary evidence and commitments which results in Interim Certificate of Compliance.
Final assessment and certification is carried out after construction. Based on the design stage review, this includes a confirmation of compliance – including site records and visual inspection.
At Energyscope we offer Code for Sustainable Homes Assessment at all stages of the development project, tailored to the specific requirements of the client.
