We recommend Owl for swift and efficient building control of our long term house extension project which spanned the COVID times. They have been very understanding with delays on our part and provided very useful advice on achievement of final sign off. The new electric method to upload documents and photos is a great addition. We would definitely use them again.

OWL were extremely professional and supportive throughout the entirety of the project.

They always attended site meetings when they said they would and there was continuity from the staff attending which helped the flow of the project.

When they raised issues they were again helpful in providing guidance and feedback so that we could work the issues and make corrections and adjustments as required.

We found the whole project process from start to conclusion was very well managed.

I would fully recommend OWL to others seeking services of this nature.

Just wanted to thank you for all the help and advice you have given me over the year. It is much appreciated.

As a residential surveyor inspecting listed properties, the issue of altered properties is common. Most of these alterations will have required building regulation approval. Achieving building regulation approval can be difficult on listed properties and will most often require alternative approaches. John’s explanation of how this can be achieved was really useful. He provided helpful practical examples showing how this had been achieved. If you are a surveyor working in this area, I can highly recommend John’s CPD to aid your day to day inspections.

Owl Building Control have been our trusted building control partner for many years and remain our go-to company. Their team is consistently professional, knowledgeable, and approachable, offering clear advice and a collaborative service. Their reliability and attention to detail make them a pleasure to work with, and we would highly recommend Owl Building Control.

Our project was supported by John Palmer, assisted by Daniel McKeown, of OWL Building Control Solutions in regard to inspection and compliance with Building Control Requirements. We found their services of high quality throughout our significant two storey home extension project, which was over a period of approximately 1 year. In particular John was helpful in providing clear answers to my questions regarding the options for construction details during the project. We would have no hesitation in recommending OWL Building Control Solutions to undertake the Building Control elements for similar works.

I would like to express my gratitude to the inspection team for being very professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend them to my friends and colleagues.

I have worked with Owl since their founding over a decade ago, and throughout that time have found the team to be extremely professional, efficient, and helpful. Having a trusted and reliable building control provider to work with is an important part of a successful construction project, and I would have no hesitation in recommending OWL to anyone looking for a cost effective and high-quality service.

I have recommended clients engage with OWL Building Control Solutions to provide building control services since they were formed by Brian Gerhardt in 2014. They are my preferred choice over other providers and Local Authorities as they consistently provide a reliable and professional service. In turn, this supports and enhances the service I provide to clients seeking to implement their construction projects.
