Cyngor Sir Ynys Môn - Isle of Anglesey County Council

Apply for building regulations approval


How to apply

If your building work is subject to Building Regulations, you complete the application for building regulations approval form.

There are two methods of applying:

  • the deposit of full plans
  • the giving of a building notice

What is the difference?

Full plans

For a full plans application, plans need to be produced showing all constructional details, preferably well before you begin building. The application will be thoroughly checked by us, and we may request amendments to the plans prior to approval being given. We may add conditions to an approval, with your written agreement.

Building notice

With the building notice procedure, the building work will be inspected as it proceeds. You will be advised by the building control surveyor if, at any stage, the work is found not to comply with the regulations. However, if we require any further information about your proposal either before the commencement date or during building, you will be asked to supply us with the details requested. You must feel confident that the work will comply with the regulations or you risk having to correct it at the request of the council.
