Building Control
The main function of the building control surveyor relates to
the processing of Building Regulation applications for the design
and construction of buildings, the provision of disabled access,
services, fittings, equipment and the subsequent site inspeciton
work.
All our building control surveyors are professionally qualified,
with an extensive knowledge of the area and the building
regulations, including expertise and further qualifications in fire
engineering.
We operate a quality system to BS ISO 9001:2008, which is
regularly assessed and registered by the British Standards
Institution. We are active participants in the development team
approach, which allows us to offer a complete service to customers,
and we welcome pre-submission consultations.
However we recommend you contact a Planning Officer in the first
instance, as this is where the principle of development is
agreed.
A copy of our application forms and charges schedule are also
available from these web-pages for your convenience. However, at
the moment, it is not possible to submit electronic applications to
us.
A completed form with a written signature is required in order
for an application to be valid.
The Building Control section has a Helpline telephone number -

Please use these numbers for general enquiries and to
arrange appointments, free of charge, for our pre-consultancy
service.
