EPC C by 2030 for landlords in Wandsworth
Privately rented homes in Wandsworth are expected to reach EPC C by 1 October 2030. Here's how Wandsworth's housing stock looks today, what reaching C involves, and a free checker for any address.
Of the 149,810 domestic EPCs on the register in Wandsworth, 63,376 (42%) are rated below band C and would need work — or a valid exemption — to let after the 2030 deadline. The other 86,434 (58%) already sit at band C or above.
Bands A–C meet the 2030 standard; D–G fall below it. Source: EPC register, all domestic certificates lodged in Wandsworth.

What Wandsworth landlords need to do
If your rental is already band C or above, you are compliant for now — but keep an eye on your certificate’s expiry date, because a lapse close to 2030 can mean requalifying under the rules in force then. If it is band D or below, the route to C usually combines insulation, glazing, heating controls and a more efficient heating system. The right mix depends heavily on how the property is built — a solid-wall Victorian terrace needs a very different plan to a cavity-walled 1930s semi.
Where the cost of reaching C is genuinely prohibitive, you may be able to register an exemption rather than do the work. Read our guides to the 2030 deadline, the cost cap, and which exemptions apply. The checker above gives you the property-specific starting point — its current rating and the measures on its EPC.
