Building Control England & Wales
Building Control is an umbrella term covering all Local Authority Building
Control Departments in England & Wales. These Departments have a statutory
duty to enforce Building Regulations. The Building Regulations are designed to
ensure the highest standards of construction apply to all buildings, and that
the health and safety of people using and working in and around buildings is
adequately provided for. 
These regulations are intended to protect the health and safety of people
working in and around buildings. This includes accessing means of escape in the
event of fire, fire detection, alarm systems, structural stability and so on.
The Building Control service is, therefore, an integral part of the
construction process.
On this site you will find an electronic database of all the Local Authority
Building Control Offices in England and Wales. You can also find regulations,
technical content, files for download, information and tools to assist in the
application process. The aim is to facilitate communication to and from your
local Building Control Office.
