Partnership scheme
We can deal with all your applications wherever they are in the country under the LABC Partnering Scheme. We also dedicate a Surveyor who will manage your account. Our colleagues who are local to that area can inspect the works as they progress.
Local Authority Building Control
As a Local Authority Building Control department we come under the umbrella of LABC. We are part of a national body with over 3000 Surveyors.
Building Control applications and fees
Building Regulations charges are the fees payable to Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council when you submit full plans or building notice applications. If you are unsure of any fees for your works that are not included on the fee sheet please contact us.
Local Building Control officers
All our Surveyors are local to the borough and we carry out around 70 inspections in Rotherham each week. Because we are local and always in the area we are able to minimise travelling and thereby help towards the carbon footprint of your project.
Dangerous structures and demolitions
We respond to all reports of dangerous buildings, walls and structures within the borough. We also control certain demolition works for the protection of public safety.
