Building Control Services

Apply for building regulations approval

Building control is a statutory requirement on the vast majority of building projects, irrespective of whether planning permission has been required or not.

If you're building something new, or making alterations to an existing building, you must check if you need building regulations approval before you start. This is to make sure the work meets certain safety, energy and accessibility standards.

All building control services in Norwich are provided by CNC Building Control. For guidance on building regulations and how to apply visit the CNC Building Control website
