Private Building Control Coventry
Helping homeowners, builders, architects and developers arrange Building Control services through trusted Registered Building Control Approvers for projects throughout Coventry.
Building Control Support in Coventry
Navigating the Building Regulations process can be complex, whether you are extending a home, converting an existing property, constructing a new dwelling or carrying out commercial works.
One Stop Consult is a multi-disciplinary construction consultancy. We help clients arrange Private Building Control services through a trusted network of Registered Building Control Approvers.
Our team helps coordinate the application, project information, inspection process and many of the additional technical services commonly required during design and construction.
Our Role
One Stop Consult is not a Registered Building Control Approver and does not issue statutory Building Control approvals or Completion Certificates. We act as a construction consultancy and coordinator, helping clients appoint a suitable Registered Building Control Approver and manage the wider project requirements.

How We Can Support Your Coventry Project
We help coordinate the Building Control process from the initial enquiry through to the final inspection and relevant certification.
Building Regulations Applications
Help arranging a suitable Registered Building Control Approver and coordinating the information required for the application.
Plan Assessment Coordination
Support providing the drawings, calculations and specifications needed for the appointed approver's technical review.
Site Inspection Coordination
Assistance arranging key inspections during construction and helping keep the project team informed.

Building Regulations Applications
Most projects affecting the structure, fire safety, thermal performance, drainage, ventilation or accessibility of a building require Building Regulations approval.
We help introduce clients to a suitable Registered Building Control Approver and coordinate the drawings, calculations and supporting documents required for the application.
The appointed approver remains responsible for assessing the project and carrying out the statutory Building Control function.
Site Inspections During Construction
The appointed Registered Building Control Approver will carry out inspections at key stages of the work.
The exact inspection schedule depends on the project type, construction method and work being undertaken.
