We offer Assigned Certifer services.  The Building Control Amendment Regulations 2014 BCAR came into force on the 1^st March 2014. The Regulations were introduced following high profile cases dealing with building control issues in Ireland. Some of the key features of the Amendments are the introduction of a new role within the Construction Industry, the Assigned Certifier and the introduction of a number of new certificates and undertakings. The amendments have also introduced a “Code of Practice Inspecting and Certifying Buildings and Works” and an online Building Control Managment System (BCMS)

What legislation are the amendments related to?

• S.I. No. 9 of 2014 Building Control (Amendment) Regulations 2014
• S.I. No. 105 of 2014 Building Control (Amendment) (No. 2) Regulations 2014 

What do the Building Control Amendment Regulations 2014 apply to?

• New Dwellings – houses and apartments
• Extensions with a floor area greater than 40 square metre
• Buildings and works that require a fire safety certificate (Part III)

The Regulations have created a brand new role within the Irish Construction Industry, the Assigned Certifier  This is a brand new role and requires particular attention. The Assigned Certifier must be a Chartered Engineer, Registered Architect or a Registered Building Surveyor. Under the Regulations they are required to inspect, coordinate inspections and certify the building or works on completion. The Assigned Certifier does not have to be a member of the design team.
