Building Control

Work with building owners, contractors and professional advisors to help deliver a building that meets the standards of health, safety and quality required by the Building Regulations, on time and within budget.

 

Pre-application discussions are welcomed and encouraged so that the more complex developments can proceed without any unnecessary delays, please contact: 01446 704609

 

This can also have a cost saving implication for the developer as early consultation can prevent over specification.
