What you must do
52 compliance obligations under this legislation — 9 can result in imprisonment.
Appointments 2
Appoint a competent principal designer (or designate an individual)
If you are acting as the principal designer for a construction project, you must prove you have the skills, knowledge, experience and behaviours needed to carry out the role. If you are a company, you must pick an individual to act on your behalf and make sure that person is qualified. This keeps design work in line with the Building Regulations.
Designate a competent individual to run your principal contractor duties
6 months imprisonmentIf you are the main contractor on a building project (or your company is the principal contractor), you must make sure you or someone you control can carry out all the responsibilities set out in the Building Regulations. This means choosing a capable person and proving they have the skills, knowledge and experience required to manage the work safely and in compliance with the law.
Risk assessment 4
Analyse high‑efficiency alternative systems before building starts
Unlimited fineIf you're carrying out construction for a new building, you must look closely at whether high‑efficiency systems such as renewable decentralised supply, cogeneration, district heating or heat pumps could be used. You need to carry out that assessment, document it, and notify the building control authority – making the report ready for inspection. Not doing so can lead to prosecution and imprisonment.
Apply the approved methodology to calculate building energy performance
When you need to rate a building’s energy use, you must use the method approved by the Secretary of State. This ensures your energy performance rating is consistent with national standards and can be used on Energy Performance Certificates.
Get energy efficiency rating approved by Welsh Ministers
If you’re building a new building in Wales, you must secure official approval for its energy performance rating from the Welsh Ministers. This is part of the building regulation approval process and must be done before the building is ready for use. Failure to do so can lead to enforcement action.
Stay within approved CO2 emission targets for new buildings
When you build a new building, you must make sure its CO2 emissions don’t exceed the target set in the Building Regulations. This means you need to calculate the building’s emissions using the approved method and keep the figure under the approved limit before the building is completed. If you go over the target you could face enforcement action.
Equipment and safety 1
Install EV charge points and cable routes in new residential parking
When you build a new residential block with parking, you must provide electric‑vehicle charging points up to the maximum number that can be installed at a cost of £3,600 or less per point. If the cost limit stops you from meeting the full requirement, you still need to run cable routes to the remaining parking spaces as detailed in the rules (covered car park vs open‑air, number of spaces, etc.). All of this must be finished before the building and its parking are handed over.
Inspections 1
Test & report mechanical ventilation flow rates for new dwellings
If you're constructing a new dwelling, you must carry out a mechanical ventilation flow‑rate test using an approved method and then report the results to the local building control authority within five days of the final test. These tests show you meet the ventilation requirements for the new home and help avoid enforcement action.
Management duties 25
Apply for a completion certificate before building occupancy
If you’re going to occupy part of a building before the construction work is finished you must make sure it complies with fire‑safety rules and then ask the relevant authority for a completion certificate. The authority will give the certificate within four weeks of receiving your notice, proving your building meets the required regulations.
Comply with building regulations for educational & Crown buildings
If your business designs, builds or works on an educational building, a building of a statutory undertaker or a Crown building, the Building Regulations 2010 (and certain specific regulations under it) apply to that work. In practice this means you must plan, design and carry out the work so that it meets the detailed technical and safety requirements set out in those regulations.
Deliver a Nearly Zero‑Energy Building when constructing a new building
6 months imprisonmentIf you plan to build a new building, you must make sure it meets the Nearly Zero‑Energy Building (NZEB) standard. That means the design, materials and construction work must achieve a very low energy use and/or generate a net positive energy balance. The responsibility lies with the client – the owner or developer – and any contractors who carry out the work.
Ensure all building work is done by competent persons
If you or anyone in your company is doing building work or creating designs that will be built, you must be able to prove you have the right skills, knowledge and experience. Even if you’re a firm, you must show that your organisation can deliver the required competence. If you’re supervising people who are still training, you have to keep them on‑site under close watch.
Ensure any major extension or services upgrade meets Part L energy rules
2 years imprisonmentIf you’re carrying out an extension or adding/boosting fixed building services on an existing building larger than 1,000 m², you must carry out the work in a way that gives the building compliance with Part L of the Building Regulations. If the work can’t be done for technical, functional or economic reasons you don’t have to do it, but otherwise you must meet the energy‑performance requirements.
Ensure building work complies with Regulations and keep client and others informed
Unlimited fineIf you’re a contractor, you must check that the client understands their duties before you start any building work, keep all work you carry out in line with the Building Regulations, supervise your workers properly, and give clients, designers and other contractors enough information to help them meet their own duties. You also need to raise any compliance concerns to the principal contractor and, when asked, advise on higher‑risk work. In plain terms: before you dig in, make sure the client knows what they must do, do only lawful work, keep your team on track, and keep the whole team in the loop.
Ensure design work fully complies with Building Regulations
If you are a designer working on a building project, you must confirm that the client understands their duties under the Building Regulations and that the design you deliver will help keep the construction in compliance. You also need to give clear information on how the building will be built and maintained, flag any concerns about other design work to the principal designer, and offer advice on higher‑risk work if asked. Failure to do so can lead to enforcement action by the building control authority.
Ensure new building complies with the approved primary energy rate
If you're building a new building, you must keep its energy use below the target rate that has been approved by the building control body. This means you need to work with your designer and contractor to show that your plans and construction won’t exceed that rate, using the calculation method set out in regulation 24. Failure to do so can bring enforcement action and fines.
Ensure new buildings and extensions meet energy efficiency standards
When you build a new roofed building with walls, add an extension, or do any work on such a building, you must make sure it complies with the required energy‑efficiency standards, unless it is exempt (for example, listed buildings, places of worship, temporary structures under two years, very small stand‑alone units, etc.). This means checking the building’s category before work starts and designing/constructing it to meet the regulations.
Ensure new buildings meet Welsh minimum energy performance targets
6 months imprisonmentIf you’re building a new building or adding a dwelling in Wales, you must show that the design meets the Welsh minimum energy performance requirements. This means calculating primary energy or fabric performance figures using the approved method and getting approval from the Welsh Ministers as part of the Building Regulations application.
Ensure new dwelling fabric meets target performance values
6 months imprisonmentWhen you build a new house, you must make sure its walls, roof, windows and other parts of the building envelope are at least as energy‑efficient as the values set out in the Building Regulations. This means following the approved design and calculation methods and proving that the finished building doesn’t exceed those limits. Non‑compliance is a criminal offence with possible unlimited fines and imprisonment.
Ensure new dwellings meet the approved fabric energy efficiency target
Unlimited fineWhen you build a new house you must keep its wall/roof insulation and other fabric elements below the energy‑saving target set by the Building Regulations. This means you can’t use high‑efficiency materials that would push the rating above the approved level. If you do, the building can be found non‑compliant and enforcement action may be taken.
Ensure renovated thermal elements comply with energy efficiency standards
If you’re carrying out major work or replacing more than half of a roof, wall or other thermal element, you must make sure the whole piece still meets the energy‑efficiency rules in the Building Regulations. This means the work has to be done in a way that the element satisfies paragraph L1(a)(i) of Schedule 1, as far as it is technically, functionally and economically feasible. Keep a record that shows the element now meets the standard.
Inform designers and contractors about higher‑risk work
When you commission a building project that includes higher‑risk work, you must make sure all designers and contractors know exactly what the higher‑risk elements are. You also need to keep checking the project as it goes on and update them if new higher‑risk work appears. This keeps everyone aware and helps avoid safety problems or non‑compliance with the Building Regulations.
Install EV charging cable routes in mixed‑use buildings with parking
If you are building or substantially renovating a mixed‑use development and the site includes at least one parking space, you must fit cable routes for electric‑vehicle charge points. The exact wiring layout depends on whether the parking is covered or not and whether the number of uncovered spaces meets the requirements of paragraph S6 of Schedule 1.
Keep a building's energy status compliant after any change
If you carry out work that changes your building’s energy rating – for example adding or removing insulation, windows or heating systems – you must now or soon after the change do whatever work is needed to keep the building in line with Part L of Schedule 1 of the Building Regulations. This means you have to carry out the necessary improvements or adjustments so the building still meets the required energy performance.
Meet minimum energy performance targets for new buildings
If you are building a new building – including new dwellings – you must design it to meet the minimum CO₂ emission, fabric energy efficiency and primary energy targets set by the Secretary of State. The target values are calculated using an approved method and must be met before the building can be officially completed.
Plan, coordinate and monitor building work as the principal contractor
If you are the person who actually runs a construction site, you must take charge of the whole build. That means arranging, managing and watching the work, making sure all contractors and other people on the job are working together and that everything meets the building regulations. You also have to share information with the client and the designer, help the client with other designers, and give the client a short report when you finish.
Plan, manage and coordinate design for compliance
3 years imprisonmentWhen you hire a principal designer for a build, they must lead the design stage: plan, manage and monitor the design work, coordinate all designers, and make sure the design will produce a building that meets all regulations. They must also share information with the contractor, consider contractor feedback, and give you a final hand‑over report within 28 days of their appointment ending.
Plan, manage and monitor building and design work for regulatory compliance
12 months imprisonmentIf you do construction or design work, you must make sure everything you and your workers do is planned, managed and checked so it meets all building regulations. You also have to work with the client, designers and other contractors to keep the project compliant.
Plan, manage and monitor building projects to meet Building Regulations
If you commission a building, you must set up the right systems from the start – schedule enough time, resources and people so the design and construction fit the Building Regulations. You must keep those arrangements up‑to‑date, give designers and contractors the information they need as soon as possible, and review the work regularly to spot any high‑risk parts.
Provide EV charge‑point capacity and cable routes for new dwellings
6 months imprisonmentIf you are converting a building (or part of it) into one or more homes and the work includes a car park or electrical work on the site, you must make sure the incoming electricity can support an electric‑vehicle charge point for each new dwelling. Where the supply can’t handle all charge points, you must install cable routes in the required parking spaces so the points can be added later. The rule does not apply to listed buildings, conservation areas or scheduled monuments where it would damage the character of the building.
Provide EV charging cable routes for parking spaces in new non‑residential buildings
If you are constructing a new building that is not residential or mixed‑use and the site will have more than 10 parking spaces, you must fit cable routes for electric‑vehicle charge points. Where any spaces are outdoors, you first meet the requirement for those spaces and then add enough routes in the covered car park to satisfy the overall rule; if all spaces are in a covered car park, at least one‑fifth of them must have cable routes.
Provide high‑speed communications infrastructure in specified buildings
When you carry out building work on an educational building, a building owned by a statutory undertaker, or any Crown building, you must install the in‑building physical infrastructure required for high‑speed electronic communications networks as set out in paragraph R1 of Schedule 1. In practice this means planning, designing and fitting the necessary fibre‑optic or other high‑speed cabling before the building is completed and obtaining the required building‑control approvals.
Take reasonable care that building work is safe
If you are commissioning a construction project, you have a duty to plan and manage the work so it is safe for workers, the public and future occupants. That means putting in place a safety plan, checking that designs and materials meet standards, and monitoring the build to keep everyone protected.
Notifications 14
Apply for a completion certificate with building control
Once your building work is done, you must let the local authority know and request a completion certificate. The authority will check the work meets all the required Building Regulations and issue the certificate within eight weeks. Having this certificate proves the work complies with the law and is needed for legal and insurance purposes.
Give owner ventilation info within 5 days of work completion
Unlimited fineIf you carry out building work that requires a ventilation system, you must hand over a clear guide to the owner showing how the ventilation works and how to keep it running properly. The hand‑over has to happen no later than five days after the work is finished.
Notify building authorities before, during and after construction work
If you’re carrying out or commissioning building work, you must give the relevant building authority a written notice before you start, keep them informed of key stages, and submit a completion notice within five days of finishing. If a building will be occupied before it’s finished and falls under the fire‑safety order, you also have to give a fire‑safety notice at least five days before that occupation. You must wait at least two days between giving the initial notice and actually starting work. These notices show you’re complying with the Building Regulations.
Notify building control before you start building work
Before you begin any construction, renovation, major fit‑out or change of use that will affect a building’s structure, you must let your local building control authority know. This is done either by giving a building notice or, for certain types of work, by submitting a full‑plan application. The notice or application must be filed before work starts, or as soon as reasonably practicable after an emergency repair begins.
Notify building control of CO2 rates before and after construction
If you are building a new building that falls under the Building Regulations, you must give the building control authority written notice of the target CO2 emission rate, the rate you have designed and how the building will be built. After the build is finished you also have to send the same information (or a certificate) showing the actual CO2 rate and whether you followed the specifications.
Notify building control of dwelling energy efficiency requirements
If you’re carrying out construction on a dwelling covered by Regulation 26A, you must give the building control authority a notice that shows the target energy efficiency rate, the rate as designed, and the specifications to be followed. You need to give this notice before work starts and again after completion with the actual rate and any changes to the specifications.
Notify local authority of dwelling connection details before construction
If you are building a new house or a building that will hold flats, you must give the council a set of details at least one day before you start the work. This includes the network you plan to connect to, and any exemption or evidence you are claiming. It helps the council check that the building can be connected safely and in line with the regulations.
Notify owner of overheating protection info within 5 days
If you’re completing building work that includes Part O (over‑heating protection) of the Building Regulations, you must hand the owner clear instructions on how to run the heating system safely. This has to be done within five days of finishing the work, so the owner can keep the building free from overheating risks.
Notify the certifier within 7 days after work finishes
If your building work uses a third‑party certifier, you must let that certifier know that the work is complete within 7 days of finishing. The client also needs to tell the contractor that the building is a higher‑risk one if that applies. The certifier will then issue a certificate to the occupier and to the building control authority.
Notify the client when you cease to be competent
If you stop meeting the Building Regulations’ competence requirements, you must tell the client (or the relevant party) right away. This keeps the project safe and compliant with the law. It applies to all designers and contractors working on building or design work.
Provide and sign a regulator’s notice for your building work
When a building control authority gives you a written regulator’s notice, you must sign it and confirm that all the details are correct and that your work does not include higher‑risk elements. This ensures the project is officially recorded and compliant with building regulations.
Submit a building notice with required details and plans
When you plan any building work, renovation, thermal‑element replacement, energy‑status change or material change of use, you must give a building notice to the local authority. The notice must include your name and address, a description of the work, where the building is and how it will be used, and, for new dwellings, statements about optional requirements or planning permission. You also need to attach scaled site plans and any other information the authority asks for, and the notice will expire after three years unless work starts or the change is made.
Submit a notice on wholesome water use to the building control authority
If you are carrying out work on a new dwelling where the water‑efficiency regulations apply, you must give the building control authority a notice that explains which part of the regulation applies and what the expected wholesome water use per person per day will be. The notice must be sent with the completion certificate application for higher‑risk buildings, or otherwise no later than five days after the work finishes.
Submit energy‑rate notices and certificates to building control
When your business builds a new building you must give the building control authority a notice before work starts (or with the approval application for higher‑risk buildings) that tells them what the building’s target primary energy rate will be, how it was calculated and what specifications were used. After the build is finished you must send a notice or certificate within five days that confirms the energy rate as actually built, indicates whether the specifications were followed, and lists any changes if they weren't.
Record keeping 1
Provide fuel and power information within five days of finishing work
If you carry out construction work that is subject to a Building Regulations requirement, you must hand the owner a detailed set of instructions about the building, its fixed services and how to maintain them. This hand‑over has to happen within five days of ending the work. The information should show how the building can run using only a reasonable amount of fuel and power.
Reporting and filing 4
Adhere to regulator directions for building documents
Unlimited fineIf the regulator issues a direction under section 19E, you must submit the required building paperwork in the exact way it specifies – usually electronically via a website supplied by the regulator. The direction will become effective at least seven days after publication, and it applies to any building notice, application or unauthorised work you are dealing with. Keep the direction and your submissions on record to show you complied.
Notify local authority on dwelling fabric performance values
If you’re building or refurbishing a dwelling that falls under the Building Regulations 2010 (specifically regulation 26B), you must report the target and actual fabric performance values to the local authority before you start work and again within five days of finishing. The notice must include the planned values, the values you actually achieve, and a list of the specifications you used. A certificate from a certified energy assessor can also be used instead of a notice.
Provide operation & maintenance info for on‑site electricity generation
6 months imprisonmentWhen your building work finishes and includes a system that generates electricity on site, you must give the owner a written guide showing how to run and maintain that system. The guide has to be delivered within five days of completion and must help the owner maximise the power that can reasonably be produced and used safely.
Submit plans that show sewerage compliance when applying for building approval
When you send a full‑plan application for building control approval, you must give plans that demonstrate you’ve met the sewerage rules in paragraph H4. The building authority will then talk to the sewerage company and may hold back a completion certificate for up to 15 days, so you need to be ready for that delay.
