Site inspections are carried out in accordance with a bespoke inspection regime to ensure that construction meets the approved design and satisfies the requirements of the Building Regulations. We aim to provide a consistent building control service in order to develop a sound working relationship and build trust and understanding.

After each inspection an electronic site report is issued to dutyholders via email to which indicates the site status, identifies what has been inspected, and highlights any queries, concerns or outstanding items. Site inspections and reports are designed to ensure that all dutyholders are clearly informed during the construction phase, giving an early warning of any non-compliance so that appropriate action can be taken.

Inspection Stages

Inspection stages vary depending on the work that is being carried out; please consult your inspection regime. As an example of inspection stages, these may include:

• Commencement

• Foundation excavation

• Structural elements

• Insulation

• Roof structure

• Fire Safety/means of escape measures

• Final Inspection - for when all work has been completed

Building Control Services AI Ltd will conduct a detailed plan appraisal to ensure that Building Regulation requirements and other relevant legislation and guidance are satisfied. When all relevant drawings and information has been appraised and is considered satisfactory with respect to the Building Regulations, a Plans approval letter will be issued via email to dutyholders.
