When the work is complete

Part of: Changes to the Building Regulations

Each duty holder involved in the construction phase must provide compliance declarations to us to confirm that they have fulfilled their duties and confirm to the best of their knowledge that the works comply with the Building Regulations.

The declaration must contain the following information:

  • The Client's name, address, phone number and email address
  • The Designer and Contractor names, addresses, phone numbers and email addresses
  • A statement that the building work is complete
  • A signed statement that, to the best of your knowledge, the building work complies with the building regulations
  • A signed statement from the Designer and Contractor that they have fulfilled their duties under the building regulations

We cannot issue the completion certificate without receiving these declarations.

A final inspection should be arranged when duty holders are satisfied that the works are complete and comply with the building regulations. All necessary commissioning certificates and test results should be submitted as soon as practicable to us.
