Registered Building Control Approvers

The term Registered Building Control Approver (RBCA) has replaced the term Approved Inspector.

Registered Building Control Approvers refers to an individual or organisation authorised by the Building Safety Regulator to carry out building control functions. These functions typically involve the inspection and certification of building work to ensure compliance with building regulations and standards. Registered Building Control Approvers act independently of local authorities and offer an alternative route for building control approval, providing services to both commercial and residential construction projects. They assess plans, inspect construction works at various stages, and issue certificates of compliance upon satisfactory completion. Registered Building Control Approvers play a crucial role in facilitating the building approval process, offering expertise and efficiency while maintaining rigorous standards of safety and compliance with regulatory requirements.

A registered building control approver plays a crucial role in ensuring that buildings are constructed and maintained to a high standard of safety, quality, and compliance with relevant regulations and standards. Their involvement helps to protect the interests of building occupants, owners, and the wider community.
