Our Building Control Register is updated every Monday.
East Northamptonshire and Wellingborough areas
Applications ending with IN, INX, INW or INDEX are administered by an outside body (e.g. the NHBC or an Approved Inspector). Enquiries should be sent to the seller or approved inspector as the council does not hold these records.
Applications beginning with CPS, CF, EP, GP, OIL, SF, WF are competent person scheme notifications. We don't hold copies of these certificates as they are available from the competent person's scheme.
