Building Control Charges
The Building Regulation charges are divided into Plan and
Inspection charges, Building Notice charges and Regularisation
charges. They are different for each type of work.
All fees are subject to VAT at the appropriate rate except the
Regularisation charge.

The following fee sheets are available:
Fees, Charges and Exemptions
Building Notices
The charge must be paid when the Notice is submitted to the
Council.
Full Plans - Plan Fee
The Plan charge must be paid on the deposit of the plans with
the Council
Full Plans - Inspection Fee
These will be payable after the first inspection has been
undertaken on full plans submissions.
Regularisation Charge
This is 120% of the Building Notice charge, excluding
VAT.
Demolition Charge
The charge must be paid when the Notice is submitted to the
Council.
Exemption
Where work is to provide access and facilities in an existing
dwelling, or is an extension to store or provide medical treatment
for a disabled person, no charge is required.
Total Estimated Cost
This means a reasonable estimate that would be charged by a
professional builder, but excluding professional fees and
VAT.
Multiple Works
Where plans show more than one type of work (i.e. two separate
extensions) the charge payable is aggregated
accordingly.
