Building Control

Operating as a Corporate Building Control Approved Inspector, working to industry codes of conduct and building control performance standards, we are dedicated to ensuring that the building control process provides added value for our clients, whether they are designers, developers, contractors or end-users.

It is no longer necessary for building regulations to cause unnecessary cost and delay.

Choosing the Assent Building Control service means delivery is tailored to client needs by incorporating maximum flexibility with minimum response times, providing solutions when you want them, where you want them, from design phase to completion.

"We use Assent as our preferred Approved Inspector for all of our Building Regulations work. We have always found them extremely helpful and professional. They are readily available on the phone for advice and help, particularly for those difficult situations when an answer is needed promptly. We would not hesitate in recommending Assent Building Control to any architect or client."
Paul Doughty, Senior Partner @ Survey & Design Associates.
