Certificates of Compliance
Often, an alteration, addition or extension to a property will require a Certificate of Compliance with Planning Legislation or Building Regulations. The onus is on the Vendor of the property to arrange this if a certificate is required.
For the Purchaser of a property:
As part of our Pre-Purchase Surveys, we often identify such works for your information so as to facilitate your solicitor requesting a Certificate from the Vendor.
For the Vendor of a property:
We will inspect the relevant alteration or addition and prepare a Certificate subject to compliance. Relevant advice will be given should there be a problem of non-compliance.
Some examples of alterations and additions that require certification are:
- Attic Conversion
- Any Extension
- Conservatory
- Garage Conversion
- New Porch
- New Driveway
- Any Permanent Outhouse / Shed
