North Worcestershire Building Control
brings together the Building Control Departments of Bromsgrove
District Council, Redditch Borough Council and Wyre Forrest

and expertise to provide a modern, flexible Building Control
Service.
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,
means of escape, insulation provisions, services, fittings,
equipment and the subsequent site inspection 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, whilst it is not possible to submit electronic
applications to us you are free to submit your application via
email with separate payment -please contact us prior to submitting
this way.
A completed form with a written signature is required in order
for an application to be valid.
The Building Control section has a Help Line telephone number -
01527 881402. Please use this number
for general enquiries and to arrange appointments, free of charge,
for our pre-application service.
As from 1st January 2012 - please submit all
applications for North Worcestershire direct to the Bromsgrove
address. Application cheques should still be made payable to the
relevant Council dependant upon the address of the building
works.
