EPC, Fire Risk and Retrofit Services in Islington
Coordinate EPCs, fire risk assessments, retrofit assessments and wider property compliance for Islington landlords, agents, managers and housing providers.
Property compliance in Islington
Islington includes areas such as Angel, Holloway, Finsbury Park and Archway. Typical property types include Georgian and Victorian terraces, conservation areas, converted flats and council estates. That mix means requirements differ from one address to the next, so we scope each enquiry around the property, its use and its occupation.
Services we coordinate in Islington
Planning inspections for Islington properties
Converted townhouses in Holloway can include separate flats with common stairs, while premises around Angel may combine retail and residential use. An enquiry must distinguish domestic certificates for a specific flat from the building manager’s responsibilities for common areas.
Clarifying the scope for your property
If the proposed work involves an older building’s fabric, describe the planned alteration before discussing asbestos refurbishment surveys. Where a fire-safety assessment is required, identify the premises and responsible person; a report for a shop does not automatically cover accommodation above.

Local authority requirements
Property licensing and enforcement priorities can vary by London borough and change over time. We check the property address and Islington Council requirements as part of the review rather than assuming rules from another borough apply. For HMOs, see our HMO compliance service and licensing guide.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover Islington?
Our focus is London, including Islington. Send the full postcode and we will confirm coverage and availability for your enquiry.
Do I need an EPC to let a property in Islington?
Yes. Landlords need a valid EPC before letting, and rented homes must normally meet the minimum energy efficiency standard unless an exemption applies.
Do HMOs and blocks in Islington need a fire risk assessment?
The common parts of HMOs and multi-occupied residential buildings fall within the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, so the responsible person must carry out a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment.
