If you are making any structural alterations to a property, you will almost certainly need to get building regulations approval. This includes almost every extension, any loft or garage conversion
and removal of load bearing walls. It is vital to ensure that the planned building work is in line with building regulations, keeping you safe and your property secure. It also ensures that the works meet minimum energy and accessibility standards. Additionally, when selling your house you will be required to provide certification of building regulations approval for any building works done, and if
you don’t have it that can be problematic. All structural alterations require the structural design to be submitted to the checking organisation whether they are part of the local authority or an
independent organisation. We provide the full structural package comprising the structural drawings and calculations under the title of Building Control package.
