STAGE 5 - Building work (or conversion) starts

You must notify your local authority in writing at least 7 days prior to works starting, by submitting a Start of Works Notice.

You should follow the Construction Compliance and Notification Plan (CCNP) that was issued to you with the building warrant package.
 


The CCNP is drawn up by your local authority building standards service and issued at the same time as the building warrant.

The CCNP sets out the key construction stages that your local authority has identified for inspection, or other methods that will check for compliance with the approved plans and building regulations.

The CCNP states when you should notify your local authority and the purpose of those notifications.

If you fail to notify the local authority they may require work to be opened up or tests to be carried out to show that compliance with the building regulations has been achieved.
