Building Regulations for most work in Devizes are handled by Wiltshire Council's building control team. Alternatively, you can use a private registered building control approver, which must now be registered with the Building Safety Regulator. To apply, you can contact Wiltshire Council directly or submit an application through the Planning Portal. The two main routes are a full plans application, which gives a formal decision, or a building notice, which suits smaller projects and allows work to start sooner but involves no formal approval of plans.
Common questions
Do I need a structural engineer to remove a load-bearing wall in Devizes?
There is no legal rule that names a structural engineer specifically, but the Planning Portal advises that a structural engineer or surveyor can determine whether a wall is load-bearing, design a suitable beam for the loads, and that it is sensible to consult one before starting any work. Removing a load-bearing wall usually requires building control approval, though building control decides what is needed in each case.
How do I apply for building control approval in Devizes?
You can contact Wiltshire Council's building control team directly or apply through the Planning Portal. There are two main routes: a full plans application, where a decision is expected within 5 weeks (or 2 months with your consent), is the more thorough option; a building notice suits smaller projects, allows work to start 2 days after submission, but provides no formal approval of plans. Private registered building control approvers are also an option.
How do I check a structural engineer in Devizes is chartered?
You can use the Engineering Council's RegCheck tool to confirm whether an engineer's CEng or IEng registration is currently active. The IStructE and ICE also publish member directories you can search. Bear in mind that the four firms on this directory who state chartered status do so on their own websites, and those claims have not been independently verified by this directory.
Do I need to tell my neighbours before structural work on a shared wall?
Under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996, if work affects a party wall you must give your neighbours at least two months' notice before the planned start date. For a new wall on the boundary line or excavation near a neighbour's building, at least one month's notice is required. It is worth checking whether your planned work falls under the Act before you begin.
