"We went to BBS initially for Building Control for our latest build near Maidstone, Kent. Being a small design & build company, and dealing with such a large project, we needed the back up of a professional team. So when we realised BBS could also assist with Health & Safety and Environmental matters, it meant we had total back up from one source, which was especially important as the project was our first experience of working to Level 2 of CfSH.
With regards to Health & Safety; we were unsure as to the best way to organise and facilitate our policy and whether we had the correct documents etc. However, following a conversation with BBS, about our requirements, they applied a realistic approach and advice which included information and site visits, giving us the confidence that we were on the right road and looking after everything as required.
We will without hesitation be using BBS on our future projects."

"I have worked with various BBS personnel for over 15 years, they are consistently
proactive, professional, helpful and their approach to solving problems rather than
just saying provide the answer - is second to none.
We regularly recommend BBS."

RLT Architectects find the service and working relationship with BBS Building Control to be one of the most helpful and pragmatic encountered.
Their approach commences with an in principle opinion at the sketch/concept stage that Allows the design to develop without complication.
During construction the site visits and meetings with BBS always allow for a flexible approach to reflect the conditions and problem in hand. This enables the project to flow without delay which can sometimes be experienced when using other approaches to the Building Regulations.

"We have been using BBS for approximately 15 months during which time we have submitted a variety of projects, from extensions to conversions and new builds both in residential and commercial sectors.
The advice you have given has been invaluable, your team is easily reachable and have responded very quickly to queries saving our clients time and money. We particularly note, BBS’s willingness to come on site during the design stage of project and form part of the design team to advise on potential building control issues. We have never received this from local authority nor approved inspectors.
We look forward to working with your practice and will continue to recommend your services to our clients."

"With respect to the Building Control Service provided for the projects at Derham Park and Stancliff I have been more than happy with the level of overall service provided.
The information and advice discussed beforehand has always been helpful and the site feedback prompt and realistic.
I know from the contractors on both these projects that they have also been pleased and impressed by the attention and responses given.
As they were both new to private inspectors they are both now converts to BBS!"

Project: House refurbishment including internal alterations, extension, drainage, steel work, electrical, plumbing and heating.
BBS Building control were very informative throughout the project and were helpful in answering any questions we had. Appointment times were conveniently arranged to fit in with our working schedule and the inspectors were always on time and thorough in their inspection.
BBS are competitively priced against the local authority and their reliability means I have no concerns in using them again in future projects and recommending them to others.

“...this house which we have just completed is the second where we have used BBS in conjunction with Build Zone and I would just like to record how happy we have been with the service we have received, and with the knowledge and help we have gained from meetings and telephone conversations with your surveyor Martin Jackson.
We have passed on your name to other people on the Island and I know that certainly in at least one case your services have been used. I shall continue to recommend your Company wherever possible.”

BBS offer a comprehensive and economical route for obtaining approval under The Building Regulations with an amazingly fast plan check service and practical advice throughout all of my projects.
Lowena Homes
Lowena Homes decided to employ an outside agency such as BBS Building Control rather than local authority building control to carry out the plan checks and site inspections works for our development at Pen-An-Vre, Treliever Road, Mabe.
"We have found BBS Building Control very approachable for the plan checks and very informative in all manner, and we have also received outstanding comments from our site managers with regards to the approach, time keeping and helpfulness of the staff, as such Lowena Homes will continue to employ BBS Building Control for all of our forthcoming projects.

‘"I have found your inspectors to be excellent and they have been thoroughly informative and experienced and helped throughout the build not only on the structured visits but also available for phone advice at any time"
