The benefits of using a Building Notice are:
- It is ideal to allow minor work to start quickly
- Drawings are not required when making the application, but certain details may be requested at a later stage.
Submit a copy of the completed Building Notice application form which we have provided for you to print. This should be signed and returned together with:
- The relevant Building Notice Charge and;
- A site location plan (1:1250) unless the work is internal only;
- Any drawings if they have been produced.
Alternatively, you can submit your Building Control application online by visiting Submit-a-Plan. If you are already registered with Submit-a-Plan you can access our application forms from this direct link.
Your attention is drawn to the requirements of the Party Wall Act 1996 which may affect your proposals. You must notify all affected neighbours if work you are intending to carry out falls within the Act.
This may include:
- work on an existing wall shared with another property
- building on the boundary with a neighbouring property
- excavating near a neighbouring property
A guidance booklet on The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 is available on the Communities and Local Government website.
You are also advised to read this guidance leaflet (pdf,47kb) on un-mapped sewers which may affect your proposal.
