Heywood sits right between Bury and Rochdale, connected by the A58 and with quick access to the M66 motorway. It's one of the closest towns to my base, which means I can often fit in same-day appointments here. The town has a compact housing market, primarily made up of terraced houses, inter-war semis, and post-war council-built properties that have since been sold off. There's been some new-build development on the edges of town in recent years, adding modern family homes to the mix. It's a straightforward, no-nonsense property market, and the EPC assessments reflect that.
The core of Heywood's housing is Victorian and Edwardian terraces, particularly around the town centre and along the main roads. These are solid properties, many with cavity walls that have been insulated and modern combi boilers fitted. For these homes, a thorough assessment means checking what work has actually been done rather than assuming from the outside.
Heywood has a good number of 1950s and 1960s council-built properties, many now privately owned. These houses often have non-standard construction types such as concrete panel or steel frame, which need to be correctly identified during the EPC assessment. Getting the construction type wrong can significantly affect the rating, so it pays to use an assessor who knows what they're looking at.
The Bamford area on the eastern edge of Heywood has some larger detached and semi-detached properties, benefiting from proximity to the M66 for commuting into Manchester. Newer developments have also appeared along the motorway corridor, offering modern energy-efficient homes that tend to achieve good EPC ratings. Whether it's a new build or a period property, I give the same level of attention.

Yes. An EPC is a legal requirement whenever you sell or rent a property in England and Wales. You need a valid EPC before marketing. Estate agents will ask for it before listing. An EPC is valid for 10 years.
Most homes in Heywood achieve a D or E rating. Terraced properties in the OL10 area often score E due to solid walls and older heating systems. Post-war semis typically achieve D. Newer builds tend to score B or C.
