There are 2 types of building control body who check building regulations are being met. You can apply to either:
- local authority building control
- private registered building control approver (via the Building Safety Regulator)
Please note, any new building work on higher-risk buildings (HRBs) must be overseen by local authorities. You can find out more about what higher-risk buildings are in the Building Safety Act 2022 Handbook for Wales Design and Construction Phase.
