Professional EPC Services for Serviced Offices & Shared Workspaces
The flexible office sector has transformed the commercial property market. Modern serviced offices combine private suites, collaborative workspaces, meeting rooms, breakout areas, cafés, reception spaces, and communal facilities, often all within a single building.
These buildings frequently operate extended opening hours and support multiple businesses simultaneously, creating unique energy performance considerations.
At EPC-Hub, we provide tailored EPC solutions designed around the operational requirements of shared office environments, helping operators remain compliant while minimising disruption for tenants.
We regularly support:
- Serviced office providers
- Co-working spaces
- Flexible office operators
- Managed office buildings
- Executive business centres
- Shared workspace providers
- Innovation hubs
- Enterprise centres
- Business incubators
- Multi-site serviced office portfolios
For organisations operating multiple locations, our Multiple Site EPC service allows assessments to be coordinated efficiently across your entire portfolio.
Understanding EPC For Serviced Offices
A Serviced Office EPC is a non-domestic Energy Performance Certificate that measures the energy efficiency of commercial office buildings used by multiple occupiers or flexible workspace providers.
The certificate provides an energy rating between A and G, reflecting how efficiently the building performs in terms of energy use and carbon emissions.
A Commercial EPC is generally required when the property is:
- Sold
- Let to a new tenant
- Subject to lease renewal
- Newly constructed
- Significantly refurbished
During the assessment, our accredited assessors evaluate:
- Heating systems
- Cooling systems
- Air conditioning
- Ventilation
- Building Management Systems (BMS)
- Lighting installations
- Insulation and glazing
- Building fabric
- Controls
- Renewable technologies where installed
Depending on the building’s complexity, we use approved SBEM or Dynamic Simulation Modelling (DSM) software to ensure accurate and fully compliant results.
Why Serviced Offices Require Specialist EPC Assessments
Unlike conventional office buildings, serviced offices often contain a mixture of private offices, shared facilities, communal spaces, meeting rooms, kitchens, reception areas, and business lounges.
Many also include:
- Multiple tenancy arrangements
- Shared heating and cooling systems
- Access-controlled floors
- Flexible occupancy patterns
- Building Management Systems (BMS)
- Central air conditioning
- Breakout areas
- Conference facilities
- Shared amenities
These features require assessors with experience in complex commercial office environments to ensure the EPC accurately reflects the building’s performance.
Serviced Office Buildings We Support
Every serviced office operates differently, so we tailor our assessments to suit the way each building functions.
Co-Working Spaces
Co-working environments often experience changing occupancy levels throughout the day. We work closely with operators to complete assessments with minimal disruption to members.
Managed Office Buildings
Buildings containing multiple private office suites require careful planning to ensure assessments can be completed efficiently without interrupting tenants.
Flexible Workspace Providers
Providers offering short-term office space require responsive EPC services that fit around changing occupancy and busy working environments.
Business Centres & Enterprise Hubs
Business centres frequently combine office accommodation with meeting facilities, reception areas, training suites and communal spaces. Our experienced assessors understand these varied environments and provide accurate, compliant reporting.

Benefits of Choosing a Specialist Commercial Office EPC Provider
Working with a specialist commercial EPC provider offers several important advantages for serviced office operators.
Benefits include:

We understand that tenant satisfaction is essential. Our assessors work efficiently and professionally to minimise interruptions while delivering accurate results.
MEES Compliance for Serviced Office Buildings
Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES) continue to play an increasingly important role for commercial landlords and serviced office providers.
Older office buildings often experience challenges including:
- Ageing HVAC systems

Where appropriate, we also provide guidance on the PRS Exemptions Register, The Exemptions List, and our 7-Year Payback Plan consultancy.
