Building Energy Rating (BER) Assessments
Secure the BER certificate you need - fast, accurate and hassle‑free. Q50’s SEAI‑registered assessors deliver residential and commercial BER ratings across Ireland.
Why a BER Cert Matters
A Building Energy Rating scores a property’s energy performance on a scale of A1 (best) to G (worst). Since 2009 a valid BER is legally required when you sell, rent or advertise a property, and from 2022 it is also mandatory for most SEAI home‑energy grants.
​
A higher rating can:
-
Increase resale and rental value
-
Cut heating bills and carbon emissions
-
Unlock green‑mortgage discounts and upgrade grants
-
Provide a roadmap for future energy improvements
Q50’s BER Assessment Service
​
1. On‑site survey – We record floor areas, fabric build‑ups, window specs, ventilation strategy and renewable systems. For commercial buildings we log lighting and HVAC details.
2. Energy modelling – Using DEAP 4 (dwellings) or NEAP (non‑domestic) software, we calculate primary energy use, COâ‚‚ emissions and the provisional rating.
3. Certificate & Advisory Report – Within 48 hours you receive the official BER Certificate, lodged on the SEAI database, plus an easy‑to‑follow report outlining cost‑effective upgrades to reach the next rating band.
​
We also have the option to bundle with Air Tightness Testing and Ventilation Validation to streamline compliance in one visit.
