    Hi

    The architect is looking to alter a standard form from our Mortgage provider for our build

    Obviously the bank will have none of this.

    Is he being pedantic? He is planning to visit the site every couple of weeks and will offer an opinion on compliance, which is all he can offer.

    Also, we have an engineer who is designing and singing off the structural elements.

    Please let me know.

    No...he is just stating the facts.

    The architect does not supervise the works...the builder supervises the works...and the architect only carries out periodic inspections of the works.

    I change bank forms in a similar way all the time. Never had a bank come to me! Nothing in that form they will have not seen before!!!

    BTW, is build under the new Building Control (Amendment) Regulations?

    Firstly, how is this becoming an issue now???
    is this a new dwelling, and when did works commence?
    does SI 9 2014 not apply to you?


    besides that....

    the architect is most definitely correct.

    s/he is not being engaged to "supervise" the works (unless you are paying him/her to be on site all day every day??) so therefore they are engaged to inspect the works periodically.

    They also will be offering an opinion on compliance, and not a 'certificate' to say that are 'certain' works comply... they simply cannot with a periodic inspection engagement.

    we quite often would have changed the banks documentation in such manner.

    Your architect is being accurate and not pedantic.

    Thanks a mill folks. Advice much appreciated.

    Build under the old regs, but I am not sure that makes a difference in this instance.
