About the area
EPC Surveys in Market Drayton
Market Drayton is a traditional market town in north Shropshire, known for its Wednesday market and as the birthplace of Robert Clive (Clive of India). The town sits on the River Tern and has a compact town centre with a mix of period and modern properties, surrounded by a largely agricultural landscape.
The TF9 postcode covers Market Drayton and a wide rural area to the north and east, including Hodnet, Cheswardine, and the villages along the Shropshire Union Canal. TF10 covers Newport and the surrounding area, including Edgmond and the villages towards Telford.
Phil surveys properties across both postcode areas, from Victorian terraces in Market Drayton town centre to rural farmhouses and modern estates in the surrounding villages. His knowledge of north Shropshire's housing stock ensures accurate, thorough assessments.

Sellers
An EPC is legally required before marketing any property in Market Drayton. A thorough assessment that accurately records existing insulation and heating systems can make a meaningful difference to your rating and sale prospects.
