Building Approvers Ltd.

The new Building Safety Act has introduced the largest change in legislation and culture since the Second World War. With such change comes uncertainty. Developers, architects and contractors are faced with a cultural shift in the way the industry needs to deal with safety and adapt accordingly. Many of these changes are procedural, some are technical, but all have an impact on the way that the industry has to operate. One of the key changes is the introduction of the principal designer role. From October 2023, it will be a requirement that all projects involving a multi-disciplinary design team must be led by a Building Regulations Principal Designer. We provide advice to the Principal Designer from initial draft designs through to working drawings and assist the project through planning Gateways. With Building Approvers as part of the design team advising the Principal Designer all aspects of Building Regulation compliance on the project will be addressed swiftly and thoroughly removing any uncertainty and limiting risk.
