Building Regulations

Building regulations are the national minimum standards for the design and construction of buildings to protect the health and safety of people using or living near them. They also include requirements to make sure that buildings are fuel-efficient and accessible.

If you plan to build, extend or make alterations to a building, you will usually need to get approval from the Council.

We can give you more advice or help with your projects. Our consultancy can help you from the design work, through to the completion of your project.
