What to do
- Ask the contractor to identify relevant approvals for your project.
- Check local building-control or planning guidance before committing.
- Keep any certificates and completion records.
Put it into your brief
Describe whether you are changing the structure, covering, insulation or appearance. Ask the provider which checks they expect and verify the position with the relevant authority before committing.
Make the comparison useful
Record who is responsible for applications, inspections and completion documents. Make sure the written quote identifies any fees or work outside the contractor’s price.
