Building Regulations

​

Building Regulations (sometimes known as building standards) define how a new building or alteration is to be constructed to correspond with the Building Control requirements. 

The regulations cover the following areas and will require adherence, even if you don’t need to attain planning permission. 

 

• When erecting a new building;

• When extending or altering an existing building; and

• When providing services which can only be inspected by a building control inspector e.g. installing a steel beam/ knocking down a load bearing wall.
