Oz07 Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 How do you know which works are notifiable with regards to building regs and keeping everything above board? Looking at a renovation where some works seem obvious to need sign off, others less so. Ie lifting timber suspended floors, insulating below knocking out solid, but non load bearing walls. Opening up load bearing walls with new lintels. Rewire etc I am thinking at the start of the project you just submit a building notice then just show them everything you're doing presumably can't go wrong then? Be keen to hear what others have done. @Onoff @Ferdinand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferdinand Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 I think the place to ask about that is to email your BC department and ask them. F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oz07 Posted November 17, 2018 Author Share Posted November 17, 2018 Is there no national outline of what is notifiable work and what isn't? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it’s structural, creates new openings for windows or doors, changes sanitary pipework, makes major wiring changes, adds a floor or converts a loft, improves or changes insulation levels in walls, or adds a new heating appliance then it’s most likely notifiable. I’ve got a link somewhere but I can’t find it on the phone ..! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
