Site inspection requests are currently being accepted and carried out on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. When making a booking please ensure you select one of these days.
Whilst construction sites remain open and/or controlled DIY and self-build work continues, Building Control will continue to carry out Building Regulation checks. They will follow strict protocols: visits only where absolutely necessary such as drainage / excavation visits that cannot be done via photos / video calls and only where officers are happy to do so.
Applicants / builders should notify Building Control for any site inspection requests as normal.
A Building Control surveyor will either attend site as normal, or in some cases will contact the applicant / builder to discuss the works needing inspection and the most appropriate way of doing that, we may postpone if required.
No site inspections will be carried out on Friday 25th September & Friday 2nd October. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
