Building Control

The Building Control team of surveyors and engineers make sure that all building work in the borough meets the national regulations.

If you are thinking of carrying out any development you will most likely need approval for the building work. Our section on approval for building work should help you decide:

  • Whether you need to apply for approval
  • The type of approval you need
  • How much you have to pay 

Our Building Control team can help you through the process. We provide an efficient, cost effective service ranging from pre-application advice to completion.
