Register your high-rise buildings by 30 September 2023

May 19, 2023

The new Building Safety Bill stipulates you must register your high-rise buildings that residents occupy or could occupy by 30 September 2023. It is an offence to allow residents to occupy an unregistered building after this date.

New buildings completed after 1 October 2023 must have a relevant completion certificate or final notice. They must be registered before residents can occupy them.

You can apply to register a high-rise residential building online.

You will need:

a credit or debit card to pay the £251 registration fee per building
the building’s name, address and postcode
a building summary, including height in metres, number of floors and residential units, and year of completion
the names and contact details of the principal accountable person and accountable persons

Do contact our Technical Team if you require further information.

What our clients say

I wanted to leave a review for the CPD that Michael gave us on the Building Safety Act. It was an excellent CPD very informative, thorough and engaging.

“Good attention to detail and a very direct and accessible service.”

“Very satisfied – gives ideas and saves customers costs; very helpful, competent, keen to advise and a prompt service”

“Thank you for your kindness in helping to resolve problems on our project”

“LBC have taken our eco-build (timber frame, straw infill, steeply sloping site), easily in their stride; we have been impressed by their pertinent questions and immensely helpful ‘can do’ attitude.

“Made the whole process stress free and added value to our finished product. The whole process was made so much easier by the inspector being so helpful, nothing was ever too much trouble. Professional but with the ‘human touch’.
