    I know I am right! :p

    If you don't engage some sort of professional for the construction stages and if you ever want to sell, or re-mortgage, the house, it may bight back.

    And some Building Control Sections will look at the submitted drawings and if they are marked as Planning Only, they will invalidate the Notice.

    We are in similar position, have planning permission we now need to submit separate drawings for commencement notice, I.e. ground floor slab/rising walls, cills/lintels, wall plate/roof details. This is despite the fact we submitted commencement notice with opt out declaration! Any idea of the cost of getting these drawings done? Thanks

    'Opt Out' actually means you are MORE in need of building reg compliant drawings than not

    You need to show the council that you know how to comply with building regs... at least on an 'Opt In' the council know theres someone engaged that will ensure full compliance.

    Proper and correct order.
    You’ve opted out of statutory certification through the BCAR System, you have t opted out of Building Regulation Compliance.

    The big problem is if you ever need to sell the house you need to be able to prove compliance to the purchasers solicitor.
