Customer care
We aim to deliver an excellent service reflected by our quality management system certification.
Policy for standards of equality
Our aim is to work together effectively for fairness within our working environment and in the services we deliver, as we are committed to equality.
We believe that service delivery will be more successful when we work closely with all members of the community we serve. We intend to continue to develop methods based upon achieving equality in all areas of our work.
We provide a mandatory regulatory service and are responsible for the following:
- pre-application advice
- building regulation applications
- building regulation site inspections
- co-ordination of street naming and numbering
- control of dangerous structures
- control of demolitions
- access for people with disabilities
- building regulation enforcement of unauthorised works
Our aim is to prevent discrimination of any kind and to promote equality opportunities within the service we provide.

- we believe that tackling the cause of inequality is better than dealing with the consequences
- we are committed to responding to the needs and rights of all members of the community
