Roofing and rainwater goods in a social home

How do we deliver it?

Loft ventilation and insulation are checked during roof work, because a new covering over a poorly ventilated loft can cause condensation problems of its own.

Which rules apply in Rutland?

Replacement windows, heating systems and some electrical work are controlled under the Building Regulations. In higher-risk buildings (18 metres or 7 storeys and above, with two or more homes), building work needs Building Safety Regulator approval before it starts unless it is exempt.
