Building Control Services Across Hertfordshire

I just wanted to take the time to thank your surveyor Amber Jenkins for all her hard work and assistance. She has been so informative, helpful, available and professional throughout this whole process. Without her help and knowledge, the stress level would have been intense and the project would not have run as smoothly.

M Evans

It makes a real change these days to have helpful personnel who are willing to go the extra mile - in my experience, this is not something that I come across every day, so thank you.

Mr S Crease

“Great to have Hertfordshire Building Control on this project - a fantastic building control service rooted in local authority building control but delivering commercial and the highest professional service.”

Ian Grimes, Director of Estates at the University of Hertfordshire

“Exceptional service! The team consistently does a fantastic job, always ready to offer their expertise and assistance. They go above and beyond, providing valuable support with building regulations. Truly impressed with their dedication and professionalism!”

Paul Whiffin, ATSpace Director

It was a pleasure to work with Hertfordshire Building Control’s representatives. I found them to be very helpful, considerate and professional and their support was very much appreciated - for which many thanks.

Mr I Davidson

We wanted to thank you for the service you have provided and we are so pleased that you have been a part of our journey. From the wet clay where our foundations were dug up, to checking that we have fire strips in our doors.
We are very grateful for your time, energy, your advice, and how you skillfully problem-solved issues and offer solutions to make our home safe and compliant.

Wishing you all the best with all your other projects.

Steve Morrow at HBC was professional , efficient and quick to help sort out any problems that I encountered. Would highly recommend using HBC for all my building projects as was let down by a private building control company.

When we completed our loft extension, I had Ian O’Connor the building regs inspector complete the final inspection. Clearly an experienced employee, having an apprentice join him on site. Both very professional and practical in their final decision. Very grateful despite not being at home when they called, they returned a short while later on the same day. Once I had provided required evidence the completion cert was issued immediately. A very positive experience, and would like to thank Ian for all his advice and guidance.

The Project threw up some underground drainage discrepancies from the initial excavation from the architect, Amber was both attentive and knowledgeable and worked with us to a suggested and an agreed solution, one of the best LABC Inspectors we have worked with, highly recommended.

I would like to highlight how good, and fair the pricing is at Hertfordshire Building Control. There's a stigma that council run building control are slow and take ages. My experience couldn't be further from this. Unfortunately for us we had a cowboys start on our project, which took its toll on us. We had to get new builders in and essentially started again. Russell Blackman from HBC, is only what can be described as a living legend. He provided exceptional service in person and over the phone, he was able to provide a thorough information about what needed doing and also gave us insight into some best practice which sometimes our builder needed to be reminded of. I again want to thank Russell again as I'm not sure we would have been able to complete the work to the standard it has been, without his knowledge, patience and overall calm relaxing presence

Mr Sanj

I had recently to employ the services of Hertfordshire Building Control for the construction of a single storey building extension. The whole application process from start to finish I found to be very straightforward. Our Building Inspector, Godfrey, visited the site whenever he was needed by our builders to proceed to the next phase of the work. Godfrey was very pleasant to speak to and only too willing to help liaise with Thames Water re: solutions for the Build Over Agreement and Soakaway to secure their approval to proceed. Godfrey certainly went the extra mile to help us as his clients. Great job, thank you.

Mr Bruce

My husband and I feel so much more reassured that we will be able to get our project moving forward now it's with Herts Building Control.

Mr & Mrs Trinder

I have been working closely with Hertfordshire Building Control from its outset and can confirm it is without doubt the best building control company that I deal with. The entire operation is well run with fast turn around times and knowledgeable staff all the way through from admin to inspectors.

Alan Hawkes – Aria Design Architectural Services

I wanted to email today to thank you for the speedy and efficient service I received from your department yesterday.

I found it hard to believe that you would be able to come out so quickly. I’ve been able to get such quick and professional advice which will save me money in the long run. Really great service from your team all-around; going that extra mile with a personal friendly touch too!

Mr C Thomas

It has been a real pleasure to deal with Hertfordshire Building Control. Everyone I have spoken to has been friendly, courteous, helpful and have provided a top class service.

I have to say I am extremely happy with the service I receive from Hertfordshire Building Control. I find all staff very helpful and courteous and never hesitate in recommending Hertfordshire Building Control to my clients.

Richard Chambers – Architech Ltd

We completed our final plots at Bucknalls Lane yesterday and I just wanted to drop you a quick email to say thank you for all your help throughout the build here. It has been singularly the most satisfying build process I have been part of. The collaboration and teamwork from all at Hertfordshire Building Control has been incredible.
