Hello,
I'm dealing with a home energy & renovation company that I'm thinking to hire to make my house more energy efficient before selling it, and they say that I need to have a current BER certificate before they come to see the house and make a plan/proposal. Is it normal ? I thought the BER certificate would be needed at the end of the work not before starting the renovation work. I subsequently contacted a compnay that they suggested and the BER Engineer quoted 350€ for a cert which to me seems very expensive, especially when I highligted the fact that I have an expired BER already (from 2011) when I bought the house, and absolutely nothing has changed since in terms on energy efficiency, insulation etc., so it would probably for the most part of it copy and paste the old BER and sticking in the new date. Please let me know your thoughts. The house is about 120 Sq/m located in Dublin
Thanks
Henning
