Selling or leasing a retail unit? You need a valid BER certificate before advertising. We provide fast, accurate BER assessments for every type of retail property — from small high street shops to large shopping centre units.
Every retail property offered for sale or rent in Ireland requires a valid BER certificate. This applies to standalone shops, units within shopping centres, supermarkets, showrooms, and any other non-domestic retail space. Estate agents and solicitors will not proceed without a valid BER on file.
Retail properties are often time-sensitive — a sale or lease can stall if the BER isn't in place. That's why we prioritise retail BER assessments and typically deliver certificates within 48 hours of the survey. We understand the urgency and work to your timeline.
Retail units often have specific energy characteristics that require specialist knowledge. Many shops have open-plan layouts with high ceilings, large glazed shopfronts, display lighting, refrigeration systems (in food retail), and heating or cooling systems that differ significantly from office or industrial buildings. Our assessors understand how to accurately model these features in the BER calculation.
For units within larger buildings — such as shopping centres or mixed-use developments — we assess only the demised area of your unit, taking into account shared walls, communal heating systems, and common area interfaces.
Small retail units (under 200m²) typically start from €280 + VAT. Pricing depends on the unit's size, complexity, and location. Request a free callback quote, or call us directly on 087 777 4155 for an immediate price.
We work closely with commercial estate agents and solicitors across Ireland, providing a reliable, fast BER service that keeps transactions on track. If you're an agent managing multiple properties, we offer competitive rates for volume assessments and can coordinate access and scheduling directly with your tenants or vendors.
