YOUR Compliance Solution

 

We can offer building control and all additional services required for your scheme. With a national presence we offer a comprehensive service to support our clients in achieving compliance with the Building Regulations. We can bring a diversity and sector expertise to your project. We pride ourselves on being a partner to clients, designers, architects and the wider project team to ensure you receive consistent advice and dedicated support from pre-construction through to final handover.

To discuss your scheme in more detail please contact us.

We are an independent third party to assess plans and building work to satisfy the requirements of the Building Regulations, as set out in the Government's Approved Documents. Our service is time and cost effective and can help you to achieve high standards of sustainability, design and quality in addition to meeting statutory obligations.

As with all building work, the owner and occupier of the property or land are ultimately responsible for satisfying the Building Regulations. However, a Building Control body can determine whether your development projects are achieving these requirements. We offer a plan check, onsite inspections and initial notice approval. We have the expertise for any size project from small one off to large commercial.

We can provide Building control service for:

  • New Housing Schemes
  • Commercial properties
  • Extensions
  • Shop Fit outs
  • Hotels
  • Change of use of an existing building
  • Material Alterations

 

Our House Type Approval service can approve a repeat design, building system or feature to speed up subsequent projects. This is a straight forward and simple process. Please contact us for more information.

Our holistic project approach commences at the inception of your development. Our pre-construction services allow you to assess project risk before the design stage. We work with Developers, Clients and Architects to assess potential environmental and ecological impacts which may inform the design.

By ensuring compliance in the pre-construction phase you can achieve cost savings and energy efficiency targets further in the construction lifecycle. Our building compliance experts offer a variety of calculation and assessment services to meet legal obligations, planning policies or environmental regulations.

  • Air Tightness Consultancy

In the event of non-compliance, we can also identify and advise on the appropriate remedial measures for bringing substandard structures up to the level required for compliance.
