October 6, 20242 yr So, the process is something like: Obtain planning permission. Do building regs level design. Get SAP rating (as designed) to form part of building regs submission. Submit to building regs for approval. Change stuff as needed and get building regs approval. Get quotes. Appoint peeps who complete their extra bits of design (like timber frames and b&b floors and stuff). Purchase warranty. Build while building control dudes inspect. Get as built SAP rating. Get sign off. Live happy ever after until you can’t help yourself and you decide to build again despite the combined advice of family, friends, therapist and probation officer. I may have got that sequence wrong, if so please correct me. But the question I’m struggling with is design changes. Say after getting building control approval you have a better idea. How does it get built in? Do you just do it and hope BC and warranty company like the new design? Is there a change process like there is for planning? Is it usual to seek agreement from building control for changes before and during build? Same for warranty? There’s so much I don’t yet feel I should, so demystification appreciated.
