EPC, Fire Risk and Retrofit Services in Camden
Coordinate EPCs, fire risk assessments, retrofit assessments and wider property compliance for Camden landlords, agents, managers and housing providers.
Property compliance in Camden
Camden includes areas such as Camden Town, Kentish Town, Holborn and Hampstead. Typical property types include listed buildings, conservation areas, converted townhouses and student and HMO accommodation. 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 Camden
Planning inspections for Camden properties
A Bloomsbury converted house, a Kentish Town flat share and a Hampstead family let can have different licensing questions. Camden’s additional HMO arrangements are particularly relevant to some shared and converted properties, but the current council criteria, exemptions and exact occupancy must be checked for each address.
Clarifying the scope for your property
In a converted building, separate the assessment of the shared stairs or electrical intake from an EICR covering a single flat. If the owner is planning alterations, explain the work area before requesting an asbestos refurbishment survey.

Local authority requirements
Camden’s borough-wide additional HMO licensing scheme began on 8 December 2025 and is scheduled to continue until December 2030. For renewals, Camden Council asks applicants to have current gas, electrical and fire-safety certificates and evidence that earlier licence conditions have been addressed. Review Camden’s current HMO licensing guidance before arranging inspection work; the required documentation depends on the property and its licence conditions. For HMOs, see our HMO compliance service and licensing guide.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover Camden?
Our focus is London, including Camden. Send the full postcode and we will confirm coverage and availability for your enquiry.
Do I need an EPC to let a property in Camden?
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 Camden 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.
