About 14 South Road

The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in July 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump.
