Extensions

Building Control

Is it required to have a small extension approximately 2 m x 3m inspected when no planning permission was required

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

You will need to have it inspected as extensions are not an exempt structure. You could easily do it under what is called a building notice (no drawings submitted for approval) but you may still want to have some form of drawings to help back up any agreement or contract between you and a contractor.

Hi Charlie49 Building control would be required if you make any structuural alteration or addition to your property, even if planning permission was obtained under permitted development. Any purchasers solicitor would check for a building control completion certificate if you've had building work done to your property should you ever decided to sell it. I hope this helps.
