How it works
From zero to certified — in four steps.
The same simple flow, tailored to who you are. Pick your role to see the steps.
Step 01
Add your property
Pop in the address — we auto-fetch your existing EPC from gov.uk and flag what else you need.
Step 02
Upload previous certs
Drag in your old CP12, EICR or PAT. We extract the expiry and remind you 30, 14 and 7 days before renewal.
Step 03
Book from the app
Pick a service, pick a slot. Chat directly with the engineer to coordinate with your tenant.
Step 04
Cert appears in your vault
Engineer completes the job. Your digital certificate lands in the vault — sharable with tenants, letting agents or the council.
