What are the pitfalls?
It is the duty of both the person having the work done and the builder to comply with the Building Regulations. A lot of work may be undertaken between site visits by the Building Control Surveyor and, should this work be found to be unacceptable, it will need to be removed or altered. For this reason it is recommended that the use of a Building Notice should occur only where the Architect, Builder or Supervisor is familiar with Building Regulations and, in particular, any requirements specific to the Borough of Spelthorne (e.g. the need to ensure that all the new roof timber is adequately treated against infestation by House Longhorn Beetle prior to installation).
