New Build Information

New Builds are a specialist area & should only be undertaken by competent, qualified & experienced professionals.

They require the services of a professional architect to approve all surveys, investigations & to oversee employment of other professional services.

The specifications only apply to dwellings up to 2 storeys although some are additionally applicable to 3 storeys.

The design & construction of the proposed works is always the responsibility of the designer, applicant & contractor.

When using our specs, checks should be made to ensure that they apply to your specific project.

Additional factors requiring attention for New Builds:

  • SAP Calculations
  • Structural Calculations
  • Water Calculations.
  • Other factors. This is not a complete list.

Please note: Use of our specs does not guarantee approval.

Please see the "New Build Info" page.

Important note regarding November 2022 Wales Building Regulations Updates

Which set of specs should I use?

The Amendment Regulations and accompanying Approved Documents L: Volumes 1 and 2 come into force on 23 November 2022 in Wales. However, the changes will not apply in relation to building work where a building notice or an initial notice has been given to, or full plans deposited with, a local authority before 23rd November 2022 provided that the building work is started before 23rd November 2023.

Therefore, in Wales, where plans are to be deposited with a local authority before 23rd November 2022 and building work starting before 23rd November 2023, use the Specs with page heading 'Pre-November 2022'.

Where plans are to be submitted to Building Control in Wales on/after 23rd November 2022 or building work is to start on/after 23rd November 2023, use the specs with page heading 'Specs for November 2022', where available.
