Building control

There are two types:

Building notice application

This is for domestic work. You do not have to submit working drawings, but we can still ask for further information to clarify complex parts of the works. To apply, you need to fill out a form (PDF) [50KB] (opens new window) , submit a site plan and pay the fee.

Full plan application

This is for domestic and commercial work. To apply, you must complete a form (PDF) [51KB] (opens new window) , submit a copy of plans or drawings and pay the fee. You pay the fee in two instalments - one when you apply and the other when the work begins.
