Unauthorised building work

Guide to Extending Your Home

This guide will take you through the building control process and aims to show you how your project may be affected by Building Regulations. It contains advice on typical building projects such as extensions, garage conversions, loft conversions and cellar conversions.

Sometimes building work is carried out without building regulation approval. This could lead to enforcement action being taken and could prejudice a future sale of the property.

There is a procedure where a retrospective application may be made for a regularisation certificate. This involves the submission of a regularisation application. The submission of an application does not guarantee that a certificate will be issued. Parts of the works may need to be opened up and inspected to determine if they are adequate and remedial works may be required before a certificate can be issued.

Further details about the regularisation application are available by contacting us.
