Request a building control site inspection
We make every effort to carry out inspections without delay to keep your building work moving. However, please note that it is not always possible to accommodate your chosen inspection day. If there is no further availability for your requested day, you will be contacted and offered the next available date.
The council will have reduced inspection capacity between Monday 22 July to Friday 2 August (inclusive), therefore you are advised to submit inspection requests well in advance.
Site inspections
We usually carry out inspections between 8am and 3pm. Morning (8am to midday) or afternoon (midday to 3pm) slots can be requested but not guaranteed. Requests received before 3pm are carried out on the next working day (subject to availability).
On the 'enter inspection request details' screen, you'll find a comment box for any special requests relating to the inspection; for example, access instructions or time limitations. We'll try to accommodate any reasonable request but may contact you to discuss further.
