The Building (Local Authority Charges) Regulations 1998

Barnet's eco-home: sustainable design and construction.

According to building regulations there are set minimum standards in the construction of buildings for the health, safety, comfort and convenience of building users. If you want to construct, extend or alter a dwelling or a building that is a workplace, it is likely that you will need to make an application under the Building Regulations but some types of building works are exempt.

Our Building Control Service processes the applications and carries out inspections to ensure that building work satisfies the standards.

We provide:

  • free pre-application advice on all building projects
  • technical guidance on current applications or notices
  • a choice of applications, Full Plan, Building Notice, or Regularisation
  • issuing stage or conditional approvals so that works can progress quickly
  • a development team approach giving you quick and ready access to a range of advice
  • a fast and responsive service using computerised administration and management systems
  • local knowledge and experience
  • historical information
  • completion certificates
  • links to other statutory bodies
