hi all, I have a building maintenance firm in brighton. I do lots of roofing works and firewalls.
I had cause to have a visit from building control the other day, commencement of works, putting a velux in. when the building control guy was there, he asked me if I was doing any other works on the house. I told him about removing a wall, putting a steel in, and works to all firewalls.
"are you hacking all the render off"
"yes I said"
he then said, "then you will have to submit a form to the office, as you are changing the thermal element, and will need to upgrade"
I have never heard anything like this, neither have any of my building contractor mates.
anyone come across this, I cant find anything online. is he talking out his chad?
I thought I would ask here, before I ask him about it. cheers, alan.
