LABC Partner Authority Scheme
Hunter Architects & Planners are a Local Authority Building Control (LABC) Partner.
The LABC Partnership scheme enables us to have a one-to-one working relationship with the local authority. "We all like to work with people and organisations we know and trust. This is especially true when working on a difficult site, complex design or when introducing innovative design features or construction techniques. When time and budgets are tight, it makes a big difference to get quick and concise advice – this is where your dedicated Local Authority Building Control consultant comes in".
The benefits to our clients include:
- a simplified, streamlined and fast track process generating substantial cost and time savings over the standard building control submission process.
- a dedicated professional building control surveyor becomes part of the design team, offering advice on all projects
- the design team approach ensures that any issues can be resolved early in the design process and will eliminate the need for expensive corrections later in the construction phase
- consistent approach to plan appraisal (including full plans approval)
- improved pre-application service
- excellent liaison with other services such as Fire, Police and Environmental Health
