Arrange a site inspection
All building work needs to be inspected to ensure it complies with building regulations. Make sure you know when to book a site inspection.
When do building control inspections take place?
Site inspections depend on the type of work taking place. We will review your building control application and send you a site-specific risk assessment by post or email. Types of work we may inspect, include:
- excavations
- drainage
- damp proof course and oversite preparation
- pre-plaster
- completion
Request a site inspection
You must have a current application with building control for your work to be inspected. Provide the following information when requesting a site inspection:

You can do this by:
