What was actually inspected, And why ?

By BC inspector came and looked at my roof trusses and said he didn’t need to inspect anything else other than the drains, as all the structural stuff is done

Mainly plumbing electrical everything in fans ducting insulation and everything is sealed up To late one e I’ve done the boarding and plastering

It seems to vary a lot.  BC inspected my wind and watertight shell.  I asked when was the next inspection and they said "completion"

Wow

 

My site work is always being held up by pre plaster

BC inspected my foundation excavation and then came back when the build was finished to do the completion certificate 

 

Got to love councils that can’t be arsed

Cor, You don't hang about do you!

 

Pre plaster is my next inspection...  BI keeps popping round to have a nose though, because taking too long, popping cards into the post-box, he's more impatient than the wife!

Slightly off topic 

I e been suprised by the amount of care LABC Warranty have taken 

Half the price of Protec 7 visits Looked at everything 

Our previous made 3 visisits Inspected the foundations from his car Roof from the ground 

Ten minutes in out kitchen for the final inspection

It’s interesting how it varies. Pre plasterboarding makes sense to me. Check how badly the insulation has been fitted. It was laughable on a job I was on recently. 
 

I’ve never heard or seen a BCO checking electrics at any stage. None of them have a clue whatsoever. Perhaps building regs side - part M or holes in joists etc.

they don’t so much check electrics It more holes bashed through 

I’ve four sites that I’m doing the dry lining on and BC won’t let us load them up before they have been inspected 

They regularly fail them on sealing up wall restraints membranes and insulation Fire stops is another that is often pulled 

 

Once they are boarded out Most inspections are pretty pointless
