Replace scattered certificate folders
EPC and EICR records often live in email threads, download folders or spreadsheets. Apex Heritage gives each property a clear certificate record so you can find dates, status and documents quickly.
EPC and EICR tracking
Keep energy and electrical records visible across your rental properties
Apex Heritage helps landlords keep EPC and EICR records connected to each property, alongside gas safety, deposit, licence, alarm, and tenancy records.
Spot missing and expiring records
Traffic-light record status makes it easier to identify properties that need action. Landlords can focus on the certificates that are missing, expired, or approaching renewal.
Keep certificate work tied to the tenancy
When a tenancy starts, changes, or ends, compliance evidence should be easy to review. Apex Heritage keeps the property, tenancy, document, and reminder context together.
What Apex Heritage helps you manage
- EPC record tracking by property
- EICR record tracking by property
- Certificate document storage
- Amber/red record status visibility
- Related gas safety and deposit records

Common questions
What is an EPC and how long is it valid for?
An Energy Performance Certificate rates a property from A to G and is generally valid for 10 years. A valid EPC is normally required before marketing a property to rent, and privately rented property is generally subject to a minimum E rating, with exemptions and exclusions under the regulations.
What is an EICR and when is it required?
An Electrical Installation Condition Report records an inspection of a property's fixed electrical installation. For tenancies covered by England's electrical-safety regulations, inspection and testing is generally required at least every five years, or sooner where the previous report requires it.
What happens if my EPC rating is below E?
Minimum energy-efficiency rules generally restrict letting privately rented property rated F or G unless a valid exemption applies and is registered. Landlords should check current GOV.UK guidance and obtain qualified advice for the property before deciding what work or exemption is required.
What must I do when an EICR identifies remedial work?
If an EICR identifies urgent or investigative work (coded C1 or C2), landlords must complete the remedial work within 28 days of the inspection (or sooner if the report specifies). Evidence of completion must be provided to the tenant and, if requested, to the local housing authority within 28 days of the work being done.
Do I need to give my tenant a copy of the EICR?
Yes. The EICR must be provided to new tenants before they move in, and to existing tenants within 28 days of a new inspection. If a tenant requests a copy, you must supply it within 28 days.
