Protek offers a partnered Building Control service designed to simplify compliance and reduce unnecessary site disruption. By combining your building control and structural warranty inspections under one coordinated service, you avoid having multiple inspectors attending site — which improves communication, reduces admin, and keeps your project moving.
Our partnered provider is approved to carry out building control checks while providing the necessary information to fulfil Protek’s technical audit requirements at the same time. Everything is tracked and reported through our web-based system, so the entire process is transparent and efficient.
Local Authority vs Approved Inspector
When arranging building control, you’ll usually choose between two types of provider:
- Your Local Authority
- A private sector approved inspector
If you opt for our partnered service, you’ll receive a quote that itemises the Building Control fees separately. These are paid directly to the building control provider.
Regardless of the provider, all work must still comply with current Building Regulations and the standards outlined in Protek’s Technical Manual.
How to Combine Building Control with Your Warranty
The easiest way to combine services is to request a Building Control quote at the same time as applying for your warranty. Just tick the box or let us know — we’ll take care of the rest.
There are two important conditions to keep in mind:
- Works must not have started on site
- There must be a minimum of five clear working days between instruction and your intended start date
This allows the surveyor to serve the required Initial Notice to your Local Authority, ensuring the process is fully compliant with statutory regulations.
