Building regulations regularisation - if you have already started work
If you started work without getting building regulations approval you must now apply. This is known as a regularisation application.
We will check to see if the work meets the building regulation standards and issue you a certificate if it does. If it does not meet standards you might have to correct the work or pay a fine.
Please note: you cannot get approval for any work completed before 12 November 1985.

To make an application, download the regularisation building notice application form, complete and return it to us by email to building.control@chorley.gov.uk.
Alternatively you can make a regularisation application for work you have already started online using the Planning Portal. Please note, there is an additional fee submitting an application via the Planning Portal.
