Do I Need Building Regulations Approval?
If you are unsure as to whether you require building regulations approval or not then there are various options available to you, which will give you an informal opinion as to whether a building regulations application is needed.
For householders - check out the Interactive House guide on the Planning Portal which advise you on planning permission and building regulations for common projects, such as a porch or conservatory, outbuilding or loft conversion.
Instead, or in addition, you can also complete the form 'Are Planning Permission and Building Regulations Required Form' under related documents on the right hand side of this page and send it to:
Building Control, West Somerset Council, West Somerset House, Killick Way, Williton, Taunton, TA4 4QA.
Or you can take it to the main reception area in Williton or the Council's Customer Centre at 1-3 Summerland Road, Minehead.
