What the assessor looks at in a Willoughby property
Willoughby is characterised by thatched and brick village cottages, most of them listed or in the conservation area — the streets around St Nicholas Church, and out through Main Street, Daventry Road, Broadwell and Willoughby Fields. On older, solid-walled property, the assessor is mainly recording the absence of any wall cavity, high ceilings that are expensive to heat, and suspended floors open to the void beneath.
Mains gas is the assumption the calculation is kindest to. Anything else — oil, LPG, direct electric — costs points before the fabric is even considered.
Expect the assessor to be on site for around three quarters of an hour, measuring and photographing. It is a survey of what is visible, which is exactly why paperwork matters.
How to prepare
- Note the age of the windows and whether the units are sealed double glazing
- Clear access to the loft hatch — an assessor who cannot see the insulation must assume the worst
- Find any cavity-wall or loft-insulation certificates
- Have the boiler make, model and service record to hand
- Dig out building-control paperwork for any extension
- Unlock any outbuildings, garages or annexes that form part of the property
