Our role
Our main function is to process Building Regulation applications and ensure that the minimum standards of the Building Regulations are met by carrying out regular site inspections.
We are responsible for administering and monitoring demolition work throughout Leeds and provide a Dangerous Structure Service 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
We play a major part in securing public safety at sports grounds and major indoor and outdoor events.
We have an Access team, who offer advice on access and other inclusive issues in and around buildings.
Talk to us first
You are encouraged to meet with us before you make a Building Regulation application. If appropriate, we can also involve other bodies (such as the Fire Service or Planning colleagues) in these meetings. Experience has shown that a pre-submission meeting can have a significant impact upon design time and costs.
We can also talk with you about how we can tailor our service to meet your needs, why using the Local Authority Building Control services is the wise choice, and of course the cost of the service.
You are welcome to drop into the Development Enquiry Centre to talk to us before you make a Building Regulation application or email us at building.control@leeds.gov.uk
Apart from the information available on our web site additional help can be found by visiting the Planning Portal web site.
