Whats the difference between a Building Notice and a Full Plans submission?

Full Plans submission requires full construction drawings, plans are vetted and a decision is given. A Building Notice doesn’t require any plans to be deposited with the application and no formal approval is given before work commences. Inspections are carried out at the various stages on both applications to make sure the work complies with the Building Regulations. Full Plans Applications will be formally determined and an approval will be issued. This option does provide you with better protection. Building Notices do not get this approval, they are only acknowledged. The responsibility lies with the owner/builder to comply with the building regulations on site.
