Building regulations are an in-depth set of design and construction standards, applying to new-builds and alterations to existing buildings.
Some things they take into account include workmanship standards, materials used, structural requirements, insulation, energy conservation, fire safety, building use and access.
The drawings that were submitted for your planning approval are accurate, but basic. Once planning permission has been approved, you’ll need another set of more detailed drawings for the purpose of gaining building regulation control approval.
Call us on 01603 868 377 or email info@constructionhelp.co.uk for more information.
Building regulation drawings will include detailed notes explaining proposed construction methods – including joist sizes, insulation, cavity sizes, the blocks and bricks to be used, concrete mix for the foundations, floor construction, and more.
The level of detail will make it easier for your tradespeople to give you a quote.
Whether we’ve produced your initial planning drawings or not, we can convert them into detailed building regulation drawings for approval by building control.
If you are looking to improve/ update your home with some internal alteration, we can also produce and submit detailed drawings for building control approval.
