Finham is the southern tip of Coventry, built out from the 1950s to the 1970s with detached houses, semis and bungalows on quiet roads between the A45 and the Finham Brook. Houses of that period usually start close to a C, and bungalows are the ones where the loft decides the outcome.
Yes. NextDay EPC provides accredited Energy Performance Certificates across Finham (CV3), covering the 1950s to 1970s houses and bungalows along Green Lane, St Martins Road, Windermere Avenue and Finham Green Road, the homes near Finham Park School and Finham Brook, and the properties towards Stoneleigh Road and the A45. Next-day appointments are usually available from our Coventry-based assessors.
Finham was farmland on the Kenilworth side of Coventry until the post-war decades, when private builders laid out the estates of detached houses, semis and bungalows that make it up today, with Finham Park School and the parade on Green Lane at its centre. Finham Brook and the River Sowe run along the south, the A45 divides it from Stivichall, and Stoneleigh Road leads out towards Stoneleigh Park and Kenilworth. It is a quiet, largely owner-occupied suburb with a long-settled population.
Houses from the 1950s to the 1970s have cavity walls and, from the mid-1960s, often some loft insulation from new, so a typical Finham house arrives at a high D or a C. The remaining items are usually the boiler, the loft depth and early double glazing that has lost its seal. Bungalows are common here and their large roof area means the loft insulation depth can be worth two bands on its own; a bungalow with 100mm needs that dealt with before anything else. Conservatories and garage conversions are measured separately.
A lot of Finham's certificates are for houses sold after long ownership, sometimes by downsizers moving to one of the bungalows nearby, and the buyers want to understand the running costs. We give a clear certificate and a short list of sensible recommendations. There are few rentals, but for landlords the 2030 C target on this housing type is close and the certificate shows the measure that closes it.
We provide domestic EPCs, commercial EPCs and MEES consultancy in Finham. Certificates are priced by property size from 60, appointments are usually next day, and you pay on the day. See every area we cover in Coventry.
Green Lane, St Martins Road, Windermere Avenue and the rest of Finham in CV3.
A great deal. On a bungalow the roof is a large share of the heat-loss area, so raising the insulation from 100mm to 270mm is often worth more than any other single measure and costs relatively little. The assessor measures the existing depth during the visit.
Only if it is heated and open to the house. A conservatory with its own doors and no fixed heating is excluded from the assessment. One that has been knocked through and heated is included as a very lightly insulated room, which the assessor records accordingly.
