Building Control

Haringey Building Control protects the interests and safety of individuals, communities and businesses. Standards for today’s buildings are far higher - safer and more sustainable - than those built in previous decades.

Building Control Surveyors help the developers, architects and builders of houses, apartments, offices, shops and factories achieve today’s higher standards. Whether for control of the spread of fire, means of escape, access, energy performance or noise reduction, Building Control helps clients to use the Building Regulations as a positive aid to the creation of high performance buildings.
