Building Regulations for most work in Salisbury are handled by Wiltshire Council's building control team.

To apply, you can contact Wiltshire Council directly or submit an application through the Planning Portal at planningportal.co.uk.
Common questions
Do I need a structural engineer to remove a load-bearing wall in Salisbury?
The Planning Portal advises that a structural engineer or surveyor can determine whether a wall is load-bearing and design a beam for the loads involved. It recommends speaking to one before starting any work. Removing a load-bearing wall usually requires building control approval, though it is building control that decides what is needed in your specific case. Six firms listed for Salisbury say they carry out beam calculations.
How do I apply for building control approval in Salisbury?
You can contact Wiltshire Council's building control team or apply through the Planning Portal. There are two main routes: a full plans application, where a decision is expected within five weeks (or two months with your consent), is the more thorough option; a building notice suits smaller projects, work can start two days after submission, and there is no formal approval of plans. For work that is not higher-risk, a private registered building control approver is also an option.
How do I check a structural engineer in Salisbury 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. Five of the ten firms listed for Salisbury state chartered status on their own websites, but these claims have not been independently verified, so checking directly with the relevant professional body is advisable.
Do I need to tell my neighbours before structural work on a shared wall?
Under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996, you must give your neighbour notice before carrying out work to a party wall. The required notice period is at least two months before the planned start date for work to a party wall, and at least one month for a new wall on the boundary line or for excavation near a neighbour's building. It is worth giving notice well in advance to allow time to resolve any dispute.
