Hi folks

We are thankfully getting to stuff I understand with our build - painting, kitchen, bathrooms etc. 

As we approach BC Completion I'd appreciate some feedback on my "checklist" for what BC will want to see. 

Documents

* Electrical Installation Certificate (EIC)

* MVHR Commissioning Report

* SAP EPC Calculation 

* Air Tightness Test Certificate 

Observations

* Everything signed off from previous visits including windows. 

* Level threshold for entrance door. 

* Outwards opening downstairs toilet door. 

* Drain test. 

 

Have I missed anything? BC are coming for an "advice" visit next week and I would like to be prepared 😊

Thanks

Building control visits are normally focused on checking as-built versus approved plans so they can look at any details, ie. level thresholds, smoke detectors, escape windows etc, etc. They wouldn’t have time to look through documents but for final submission, I would add; SE calcs/drawing, roof truss calcs, any MCS certs, Gas Safe certs, planning approvals, window and door specs …

I had such a visit back in December. I had requested the visit as a pre-completion review. They called it something else, but they did follow up the visit with a list of things they needed to see before completion. Very handy for the work plan needed this year.
