Building control is changing, and many builders are feeling the impact. In this episode of the Build Up podcast, we look at what the Building Safety Act means in practice, why roles and responsibilities can feel unclear, and how builders can protect themselves with better records and communication.

We hear from Local Authority Building Control (LABC), builders from southern parts of the UK, as well as a Scottish builder up north to compare how the system works across the country. It's a practical discussion for builders dealing with more paperwork, higher expectations and the need to prove compliance on every job.

You'll learn:

1. How building control expectations have changed
2. Why clear roles matter between builders, designers and clients
3. How records, photos and documentation can protect your business
4. What builders in England and Scotland can learn from each other
