Local Authority Building Control (LABC) offers you the opportunity to partner with the local authority of your choice for the plans approval process on all your projects wherever they are located around the country.
The scheme is free and non-contractual.
A decision to partner with us means you will get consistent and coherent feedback and building regulations advice at an early stage.
It will also help to eliminate unnecessary delays and speed up the process leading to formal building regulations approval.
We will brief the local authority where the project is to take place that will be responsible for site inspections. It's the best of both worlds - central management combined with fast, efficient inspections from a local team.
Benefits
The benefits of partnering with us include:
- a single point of contact
- consistent advice on regulations and standards
- save time and money on wasted administration and travel
- local inspections from a professional team near to your sites
- simplified correspondence and faster resolution of queries
- simplified fees and invoicing arrangements
- options to use LABC New Home Warranty or latent defects insurance for commercial buildings
