Why do I have to pay twice – once for the Approved Inspector and then for the LABC team?
Unfortunately the situation is out of the hands of local authorities.
Dealing with reversions from Approved Inspectors is a statutory duty of local authorities – the Approved Inspector’s ability to trade is not under our control, nor are their commercial relationships. Local authorities have to charge for the time taken to do this function.
Looking for information on what to do if your private building control inspector doesn't have PI insurance?
