Help for house builders

We have a number of schemes and propositions which are aimed at helping you:

LABC Acoustics – Offering a UKAS Accredited Sound Insulation Testing service as required by Approved Document E (2003).

Air Pressure Testing - Air pressure testing is a method of measuring how much air is leaking into and out of a building.

Energy and Sustainability - Our specialist trained surveyors provide the widest range of energy and sustainability advice, testing and calculations.

LABC Warranty – Whether you are building or converting homes to rent or sell, we are confident we can provide you with the protection your projects deserve.

Partner Authority Scheme - Regardless of a project’s geographical location, LABC’s Partner Authority Scheme means you can choose to work with any local authority building control surveyor to undertake all pre-application and design work.

LABC Assured - A one-off certification process assessing compliance with building regulations and standards for England, Wales and Scotland.

House Type Approval - As a housebuilder or housing association you can arrange to have your standard designs/details examined for compliance with the Building Regulations just once and under the provisions of the Local Authority National Type Approval Confederation (LANTAC) they will be accepted by all local authorities across England and Wales without any further checking (other than local site related issues). Email Martin Taylor for further details.

Registered Construction Details - A set of thermal details designed to minimise heat loss through weak points in the building envelope, vital to the performance of the building.

LABC Building Excellence Awards - Celebrating your achievements in the construction industry, rewarding excellent buildings, outstanding companies and individuals that go the extra mile. We have categories specific for house builders of all sizes, from Best Local Builder to Best New Housing Development.
