What our service offers

BCS will:

• Provide a checking service to help you achieve compliance with building regulations
• Support and advise you on how to achieve the result you want, though this is not a substitute for professional design and construction advice
• Help with aspects of quality workmanship and materials where these affect compliance with building regulations, but not where they do not have an impact on compliance
• Ensure that all building regulations which are set in the interests of the wider public good are complied with at completion

BCS will not:

• Be responsible for compliance, that is the duty of the person carrying out the work, if work is found not to comply with building regulation the person responsible could be prosecuted and the owner of the building may be required to put the work right
• Manage every stage of the construction process on site, that is a matter for the contract and arrangements made between the client and their builder
• Address such issues as the finish and aesthetics of the final project where these are not relevant to compliance with building regulations,  these are a matter for designers, developers builders and to some extent new home warranty providers
• Deal with contractual problems between client and builder, this is a matter of contract law
