Expert SAP Assessment Services for New Builds and Extensions

What Are SAP Calculations?

SAP (Standard Assessment Procedure) is the method used by the UK Government to assess the energy performance of residential buildings.

SAP Calculations measure how efficiently a property uses energy for:

• Heating
• Hot water
• Ventilation
• Lighting

The calculation considers factors such as:

• Insulation levels
• Cold Bridging
• Window performance
• Air tightness
• Renewable technologies

The results confirm whether the building meets the energy efficiency requirements of Building Regulations Part L.

When Are SAP Assessments Required?

SAP Calculations are typically required for:

• New build homes
• Property conversions
• New dwellings created through change of use
• Extensions in some circumstances

• Do you need a full specification: No, we can use our extensive experience to suggest solutions that you can work with as a starting point
• When should I have the SAP carried out: The SAP assessment should be carried out as early as possible in the design process
