LABC Partnership

LABC is the trading name of District Surveyors Association Limited.

LABC's mission is to ensure that buildings are healthy, safe, sustainable and accessible for all users and tenants whether domestic, commercial or public service.

LABC coordinates the technical application of the Building Regulations and influences new or revised regulations covering new technology, new building methods and environmental performance.

LABC also provides a national marketing function to build awareness of local authority building control amongst the public, developers, designers and contractors.

In recent years local authority building control teams have shifted the emphasis of their work from "tick box" checking at the end of building projects to helping developers, designers and builders to make the best choices when planning projects. This change of emphasis achieves high quality building without annoying and expensive corrections happening late in the construction phase.

Lewis and Lewis Ltd are able to offer a unique partnership with Newport and Cardiff City Council to ensure a practical approach to obtaining Building Regulation approval.

Partnering allows a company (called the Partner Company) to link with a local authority of its choosing (the Partner Authority) for the plans approval of all or any of its projects, so elminating inconsistency, uncertainty and delays.
