Covid-19: Planning and Building Control updates

At present we are operating a normal service and are able to check plans and inspect work.

However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic all staff are currently working from home. Site visits are still taking place subject to conditions - see below.

Inspections can be booked by telephone or email - please provide us with your contact details (telephone and/or email), the address of the inspection and what there is to inspect.

  • Tel: 020 8489 5504
  • Email: building.control@haringey.gov.uk

All new applications are to be submitted online only until further notice.

Planning

All restaurants, cafes (A3 uses) and pubs and bars (A4) may operate as ‘take-aways’ until further notice. Please inform the council if you are doing so - email planningsupport@haringey.gov.uk and observe alcohol licensing restrictions.

From 14 May, developers may temporarily request to extend their working hours to help with social-distancing. The Government advises work on construction sites up to 9pm Monday-Saturday will generally be permitted. Requests should be made to planning.support@haringey.gov.uk

Site visit conditions

In order to protect everyone on site, you will be asked to confirm the following and dependant on reply, a decision will be made as to how best to proceed:

  • If anyone at the site (property owner or builder) to be visited has been ill and/or displaying the coronavirus symptoms
  • If anyone at the site (property owner or builder) has travelled from a country currently not included in the government travel corridor list (external link) within the last two weeks
  • Could the inspection be carried out in the absence of the builder/homeowner if necessary?
  • Will there be vulnerable people on the premises?

We are here to help you progress your work even in these difficult times, so please feel free to contact us via email if you require any further advice.
