Helping Bexleyheath Clients Pass Building Regulations

Bexleyheath building siteWorking across the whole of Kent, including Bexleyheath, we specialise in the assessment of existing and newly built premises throughout the region for Building Regulations Parts L1A and L1B. 

While it is already incredibly essential to have both new and old buildings assessed by experienced and trusted professionals, it is even more paramount now thanks to the new building regulations relating to air permeability, air leakages and energy efficiency. 

In fact, the current building regulations across Kent and Bexleyheath are now set so low that new and innovative designs and technologies are having to be utilised to ensure that any new domestic or commercial dwellings pass.

At Tophouse Assessments, we combine decades of experience and expertise with full qualifications and certifications to efficiently and accurately assess any Bexleyheath building design to the very latest building regulations Part L. We also work alongside architects and designers from the very beginning stage of the project to ensure that the commercial or domestic building always complies. 

We work across Kent, including Bexleyheath, so call our qualified and experienced team today on 01634 799115 for free building regulations Part L advice and a no obligation quotation.

  • The target emission rate and fabric energy efficiency for the building
  • An evaluation of alternative high energy efficiency systems
  • The calculated CO2 emission rate and fabric energy efficiency from the building as designed
  • A list of specifications to which the dwelling is to be constructed
