- for new dwellings and flat, commercial work, garage conversions or any other work not described in the fees table, for a quote telephone 020 8303 7777 and ask for building control
- estimated cost – this means a reasonable estimate that would be charged by a professional builder/contractor, but excluding professional fees and VAT, you may be asked to supply a VAT registered quote for the work
Building Control fees were adjusted from 15 January 2018, with the integration of some categories of work, which will simplify the fee determination process. The new structure more accurately reflects the process, and time taken on projects, for both the administrative and technical roles. This is reflected in service improvements with regard to plan checking and site inspections.
