An energy assessment involves both an internal and external inspection of the property. Energy Performance Assessments can only be carried out by quallified and accredited Domestic Energy Assessors (DEAs) or Home Inspectors (HIs)

 

As part of a DEA's accreditation, a check on their Criminal Record is made with the Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) - It might be additionally comforting to know that the check (at the time of writing), is more comprehensive than those undertaken for such professions as, Gas Inspectors, for instance.
