Property Inspection Services
We can inspect work carried out with an expired pre-2005 building warrant where a certificate of completion has not been issued. If satisfactory, a letter can be issued (sometimes called a "letter of comfort") to confirm that no enforcement action is intended due to the work not being covered by a completion certificate. This service only applies to building warrant applications submitted before the 1st May 2005.
If any work has been completed without a building warrant, a completion certificate (where no building warrant is obtained) should be submitted along with the appropriate supporting information and fee. You can do this online using the Scottish Government eBuildingStandards portal.
A fee is payable for each service.
- Inspect an expired building warrant with no completion certificate £340
- Confirm work does not need a building warrant £200
- Any other property inspection requests £200
