Meeting Building Regulations for Demolition

When you plan to demolish a structure, you must inform your local council's building control team. After receiving your notification, they have up to six weeks to issue an official notice to you.

This document will detail specific conditions you must adhere to throughout the demolition process. These requirements often include:

• Implementing protective measures for nearby properties.

• Ensuring the safety of the general public.

It's also crucial that you comply with the Building Regulations for site preparation right from the moment work commences. This covers essential aspects like preventing contamination and managing moisture, ensuring the ground is safe and suitable.

For any further guidance or specific advice, always get in touch with your local council's building control department.
